Indulge in the comforting flavors of Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie, a delightful dish that combines tender chicken, mixed vegetables, and a creamy sauce, all encased in a flaky pie crust.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 refrigerated pie crust (or 2 if using a top and bottom crust)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the frozen mixed vegetables and sauté for about 5 minutes until they are tender.
  3. Stir in the shredded chicken, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2 minutes to combine the flavors.
  4. Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring well. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes until it thickens slightly. Remove from heat.
  5. Roll out the pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the chicken mixture into the pie crust. If using a top crust, place it over the filling and seal the edges. If using only a bottom crust, leave it open.
  6. Brush the top crust (or edges, if only a bottom crust) with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  7. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
  9. Allow the pot pie to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a healthier version, substitute half of the heavy cream with low-fat milk or use a dairy-free alternative.
  • Add a splash of white wine to the chicken mixture for extra flavor, or incorporate fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary for a fresh twist.
