How to Make Chicken Pot Pie
With a little prep work, this recipe is super easy to make! It uses refrigerated pie crusts for added convenience or skip the crust completely and try making soup version.
How to Make the Filling:
- Boil potatoes until soft.
- Saute onion in butter, add flour and seasonings to create a roux.
- Whisk in broth and milk until smooth.
- Add cooked chicken, potatoes, and frozen vegetables.
How to Assemble:
- Spoon filling mixture into the pie crust and top with the second crust.
- Crimp the edges and cut slits to allow the steam to escape.
Optional – Make a simple egg wash by scrambling a raw egg and brushing it over the top to help seal the edges and give it a shiny, golden color once it’s baked.
- Bake until golden brown. Let it rest 15 minutes before serving.
Or try making individual servings with this mini pot pie recipe.

Chicken Pot Pie
Ingredients
- 1 box refrigerated pie crusts two crusts
- 2 cups cooked chicken shredded or chopped
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables thawed
- 15 oz can whole new potatoes diced
- 10.5 oz can cream of chicken soup
- ½ teaspoon dried thyme
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Unroll the pie crust and line a 9-inch pie plate.
- In a medium bowl, combine chicken, vegetables, diced potatoes, and condensed soup. Mix well and pour into the prepared crust.
- Top the filling with the remaining crust and pinch the edges to seal, trimming excess dough as needed. Cut slits in the top of the pie to allow steam to escape.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Cover the top of the pie with foil if the crust starts to brown too much.
Notes
- Use fresh or frozen veggies of your choice. Try adding broccoli, asparagus or green beans for a different flavor.
- You can use a premade crust (any brand will do) or make your own.
- Letting the chicken pot pie rest before serving allows the filling to set and for the pie to stay intact when slicing and serving.

Could I double this & use a 13 X 9 dish instead? What about the 2 crusts? Would I need 4?
Thank you, hoping to make this for Thanksgiving.
Hi Melissa, I have only made this recipe as listed but it should work. I would make a homemade pie crust and roll it to size to fit your casserole dish. You will have to let us know how it turns out!
This was delicious! I made it tonight with gluten free flour and pie crusts. Definitely will be making again!
So happy you love the chicken pot pie Holly!
This sounds really good. Mine is very similar. But before putting the pie crust on top, I roll some celery seed into the pie crust. It makes it a little more savory.
Yummy Sheila! That’s sound so good!
