Directions
My Favorite Chicken Pot Pie, I LOVE chicken pot pie, it is my ultimate comfort food, soI was very excited when I found this easy and fairly quick recipe no more frozen pot pies for me I don’t like cooked carrot so I leave it out, just personal preference I would NOT leave out or substitute anything for the sherry It is one of the main flavor components The recipe uses a 13 x 9 baking dish, but I’ve also made them in small aluminum pot pie pans The only problem with the small tins is reheating can not be done in the microwave I like to make a batch in the tins and cook a few and freeze the rest uncooked to have later The recipe calls for puff pastry, but the filling lends itself to a variety of toppings, pie dough, buttermilk biscuit dough or mashed potatoes Super easy and super tasty! Enjoy!, Thank you for sharing this awesome recipe Stacy I can certainly understand why it is your favorite It is so good, we loved it Quick and easy to make with excellent results This is very similar to the one I make, the only difference is that I add potatoes, shallots and poultry seasoning We really enjoyed your version, it is a nice alternate Happily made for Down Home Cooking
