A delicious and easy Chicken and Mushroom Pot Pie recipe that is perfect for a comforting meal.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
  • 1/2 cup onion, diced
  • 1/2 cup celery, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 package (2 crusts) refrigerated pie crusts
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  2. In a large skillet, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, and garlic; sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the mushrooms and cook until they are tender, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Sprinkle the flour over the mixture and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
  5. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
  6. Stir in the shredded chicken, peas and carrots, thyme, salt, and pepper. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  7. Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the chicken and mushroom filling into the crust.
  8. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Seal the edges by crimping with a fork or your fingers. Cut a few slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  9. Brush the top crust with the beaten egg for a golden finish.
  10. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a creamier filling, substitute half of the milk with heavy cream.
  • Incorporate fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary for added flavor.
