Chicken Pot Pie IX

Delicious as-is, even better modified. Added turmeric, thyme, sage, and rosemary (1/2t each), used cooked chicken, added chopped broccoli.

I like this recipe and do it pretty often, I like to add a tablespoon of organic "better than bullion" to the gravey. Great recipe thank you for posting!

Sooo good! We did ~1.5x the sauce (maybe closer to 1.75x) and it was perfect. Also used chicken thighs instead of chicken breast and added dried thyme and Italian seasoning. It took closer to 50 minutes to bake and we did add an egg wash at the end to get it nice and golden brown.

Chicken pot pie my 3 favorite things! I did 1 1/2 times the sauce ..I hate dry chicken pot pie

I use this recipe when I have left over baked chicken thighs, legs, or breasts. I save the broth/drippings from my baked chicken to make the sauce. I do not boil the chicken or veggies. I saute the veggies till soft. My family loves it.

I sauteed all the veggies and chicken plus 1 cup of diced potatoes until they were fork tender. Then took veggies/chicken out of pot and made roux.

boil chicken and veggies in chicken stock instead of water. Add 2 bay leaves, tsp of thyme, garlic, and onion powder. drain stock into a new pan and put the two bay leaves back into the stock and reduce it to 2-2.5cups. sautee 2-3 cloves of garlic with the onion add the celery seed and 1/2tsp of thyme to it at the same time instead of after it's done. Use all the reduced stock instead of canned for the roux. use cream instead of milk for extra creaminess.

Too much white sauce the first time, second time made 3/4 of white sauce recipe and it was perfect. Make sure crust is not too sweet.
