Chicken Pot Pie

This is one of my favorite comfort foods! I love to create a fun pie crust for the kids using cookie cutters. To save time with this recipe, I cook my chicken in the crockpot ahead of time and shred with my mixer.

Ingredients

• 1 Cup Carrots
• 1 Cup Onion
• 1 Cup Celery
• 1/2 Cup All Purpose Flour
• 2 Cups Chicken Broth
• 1 Cup Milk
• 1/2lb of shredded Chicken (I cook in the crockpot ahead of time)
• 1 Can Peas
• 1/3 Cup Butter
• 1 tbsp minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon Pepper
• 2 pack of your favorite pie crust (I like to cut time here with store bought, but feel free to make your own.)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and set out your pie crusts to soften up.
2. Sauté carrots, onion and celery in butter and garlic until onions are soft.
3. Add in flour and stir until well mixed.
4. Add in chicken broth and milk. Stir until thick and bubbly.
5. Once your mixture is thickened, turn off heat and add in your shredded chicken and peas (drain peas before adding).
6. Add salt and pepper to taste.
7. Cover your pie dish with first pie crust and add your mixture in.
8. This is where you’ll want to decorate that top pie crust if you choose. If not, just go ahead and cover with your second pie crust and cut a slit in the middle.
9. Trim your edges and push ends together with a fork.
10. Bake at 375 degrees for 30-45 minutes.

ENJOY!

XOXO,
