Prepare the Ingredients

Gather all the necessary ingredients for the pot pie filling. This includes cooked chicken, diced vegetables such as carrots, peas, and onions, a creamy sauce made with butter and flour, chicken broth, and some herbs and spices for extra flavor.

2

Cook and Combine

In a large skillet, cook the diced vegetables until tender. Then, add the cooked chicken and stir to combine. In a separate saucepan, melt some butter and whisk in flour to create a roux. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while whisking constantly. Cook until the mixture thickens. Season with herbs and spices of your choice, and combine the creamy sauce with the chicken and vegetable mixture.

Prepare the Pie Crust

Roll out one pie crust and place it in a greased pie dish. Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the crust. Cover with the second pie crust, and make sure to cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.

Bake and Enjoy

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the chicken pot pie in the oven and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Dig in and savor every mouthwatering bite!
