I would love to find a great recipe for homemade chicken pot pie. I don't care if it calls for fresh, canned, or frozen veggies if that makes a difference but I don't want anything too complicated.

Crust 2 cups Gold Medal® all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon salt 2/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons shortening 4 to 6 tablespoons cold water Filling 1/3 cup butter or margarine 1/3 cup chopped onion 1/3 cup all-purpose flour 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon pepper 1 3/4 cups Progresso® chicken broth (from 32-oz carton) 1/2 cup milk 2 1/2 cups shredded cooked chicken or turkey 2 cups Green Giant® Valley Fresh Steamers™ frozen mixed vegetables, thawed

  1. Heat oven to 425°F. Combine flour and salt in large bowl; cut in shortening with pastry blender or fork until mixture resembles coarse crumb. Mix in enough cold water with fork until flour is moistened. Divide dough in half. Shape each half into a ball; flatten slightly. Wrap 1 ball in plastic food wrap; refrigerate.
  2. Roll out remaining ball of dough on lightly floured surface into 11-inch circle. Fold into quarters. Place dough into ungreased 9-inch pie plate; unfold dough, pressing firmly against bottom and sides. Trim crust to 1/2 inch from edge of pan; set aside.
  3. In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender. Stir in flour, salt and pepper until well blended. Gradually stir in broth and milk, cooking and stirring until bubbly and thickened. Stir in chicken and mixed vegetables. Remove from heat. Stir in chicken and mixed vegetables. Remove from heat. Spoon into crust-lined pie plate.
  4. Roll out refrigerated ball of dough on lightly floured surface into 11-inch circle. Gently fold dough into quarters. Place dough over filling; unfold. Trim, seal and crimp or flute edges.
  5. Bake 30 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown. During last 15 to 20 minutes of baking, cover edge of crust with strips of foil to prevent excessive browning. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

I like to just mix veggies, precooked, cubed potatoes, and pieces of chicken into a can of cream of chicken soup. I add a little milk, mot enough to make it soupy, but enough to give it the consistency I want. If you are making a big one, you could mix cream of chicken with another cream soup for added flavor. Then put in your baking dish, and top with pie crust and bake until golden brown. I don't usually care for pie crust, so I use a package of crescent rolls instead. Just roll the mix together until you can form it into a pie crust.

I read a great recipe for Deep Dish Chicken Pie on Suite 101. You can use canned or fresh chicken and frozen or leftover vegetables. Combine the chicken and vegetables with cream of chicken soup and some milk. Then cover it all with biscuit topping like Bisquick.
