This was SO delicious, the best I have ever tasted. I made it with the “Butter Flaky Pie Crust” and it turned out perfectly flaky and wonderful. I pre-baked the bottom crust for 6 minutes, doubled the black pepper, added a tsp. of poultry seasoning and garlic salt and a diced potato. I added an extra 1/4 c each of milk and broth to combat any dryness. It turned out SPECTACULAR and was a huge hit with the family…they even ate it for breakfast. Will definitely make this again.
– This was AMAZING! My family kept raving how good it was. Like others before me, I boiled the veggies and the chicken in the chicken broth. When the chicken was done I saute’d it in butter with garlic, onions, salt and pepper. I also added a can of cream of chicken soup because I needed more gravy. There was so much meat and veggies that I put it in a 9×13 pan and topped it with two pilsbury already made dough. I brushed the top of the dough with egg white and it came out so wonderful! What a recipe. I will be making this again and again. Update – I made this with left over roast from last nights meal and it was amazing. I used beef broth and also a jar of beef gravy so we’d have extra. My kids liked it better then the chicken pot pie.
