Chicken pot pie is a classic comfort food that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is made with a flaky crust filled with a hearty chicken and vegetable stew. This recipe is easy to follow and produces a delicious and satisfying dish that the whole family will love.

Ingredients

  • 1 (10-ounce) package frozen puff pastry, thawed

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1/2 onion, chopped

  • 1 carrot, chopped

  • 1 celery stalk, chopped

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 (14.5-ounce) can chicken broth

  • 1 (10.75-ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup

  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

  2. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the puff pastry to a 12-inch circle.

  3. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on all sides.

  4. Add the onion, carrot, and celery to the skillet and cook until softened.

  5. Stir in the salt, pepper, chicken broth, and cream of mushroom soup. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.

  6. Stir in the peas and heat through.

  7. Pour the chicken mixture into a 9-inch pie plate.

  8. Top with the puff pastry, crimping the edges to seal.

  9. Brush the top of the pastry with beaten egg.

  10. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

  11. Let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips

  • For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth.

  • If you don't have puff pastry, you can use pie crust instead.

  • To make the dish ahead of time, assemble the pie without the pastry. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. When ready to bake, remove from the refrigerator and let sit at room temperature for 30 minutes. Preheat the oven and bake as directed.

  • Serve with a side of your favorite vegetables or a salad.
