Chicken Pot Pie Filling & Top Crust

Chicken pot pie is all about the filling and the crust! And these super simple ingredients will have you singing this recipe’s praises!

Ingredients

• cooked diced chicken – This is a perfect use for leftover chicken or even rotisserie chicken!
• frozen vegetables – I like using the pre-bagged corn, peas, carrots and green beans but you can use any combo you prefer.
• can of cream of celery – You can substitute cream of chicken if you would like. I prefer the celery.
• chicken broth – Quality chicken broth is a must! I use better than bouillon mixed with water to make this recipe extra easy.
• ground pepper – Don’t skip! This gives the recipe an extra bit of flavor!
• baking mix – I use Bisquick which is easy to keep on hand since you can make so many things with it.
• milk – Using 2% worked great for this recipe, but whole or 1% would work as well.
• butter – I prefer using melted butter to create a more cake-y top crust. You can use cold butter if you would prefer to make more of a biscuit topping.

3. 2nd Layer: Spread the frozen vegetables on top of the chicken.
4. Create the pie filling: In a bowl, stir together the cream of celery, chicken broth, butter and pepper. Pour over the chicken and vegetables.
5. Top Crust: Mix together the baking mix, butter and milk. Pour over the top to form the crust.

Storage & How to Reheat

Store leftovers in the refrigerator. When ready to reheat, reheat in the oven at 350˚ F until the internal temperature reaches 160˚ F. You an also microwave but you’ll love the crunch of the top crust. Still equally delicious.
