Step 1

Cook the chicken in a large skillet with a drizzle of oil and salt and pepper. Set aside

Step 2

In the same skillet, add the butter, onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5-10 minutes.

Step 3

Sprinkle in the flour and stir until smooth. Cook for about a minute, stirring constantly.

Step 4

Add chicken broth and milk; cook, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the cooked chicken, peas, salt, and pepper.

Step 6

Let this mixture cool before pouring it into pie crusts. This step is very important! It allows the mixture to thicken a bit more.

Step 7

Once cool, you can either freeze the filling in a labeled freezer-safe container/bag or you can assemble the pie to freeze.

Step 8

When you’re ready to eat, pull the entire frozen pot pie out and pop it into a 400-degree oven. Bake it covered with foil for 30 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for an additional 30 minutes.

Step 9

If you froze just the filling, thaw it overnight in the fridge. Next, pour it into pie shells when you’re ready to bake. Bake it at 350 degrees for 30-45 minutes.
