Chicken Pot Pie might be the perfect comfort food. This recipe is filled with tender chicken, flavorful gravy, vegetables, and topped with a warm buttery peppery crust. This one will soothe your soul while stirring up nostalgic feelings of childhood.

These chicken pot pies are delicious, so no surprise this recipe has become one of my favorites over the last several years. In early 2020, when we went into lockdown, I think everyone was searching for recipes that were easy to make, with easy-to-source ingredients, and ones that brought comfort to the people around the dinner table. This one appeared quite often that year on our dinner table, and many Sunday’s since!

This recipe is a great make-ahead meal, freezer-friendly, great for a crowd, and easy to substitute ingredients with what you have in the pantry; which again was so important those first few months when Covid hit the US and stores were struggling to stock their shelves.

For those of you that have read my other blog posts, you know, I like to encourage you to be creative with my recipes. The possibilities are endless with this recipe. If you are not comfortable making a crust? Substitute a store-bought pie crust or a sheet of frozen puff pastry. Replace my vegetable choices with your favorite vegetables. Short on time? Replace the fresh vegetables with a bag of your favorite frozen vegetable mix.

When I make this recipe, I love to double it and freeze half of the pies. These bake perfectly straight from the freezer for a quick weeknight dinner. I love to gift these along with a simple side salad to friends and neighbors. Everyone needs a night off of cooking, right?

When the filling bubbles up, these can get messy. Line your sheet pan with parchment or aluminum foil to save on some clean-up. To make clean-up even easier, I bake them in 5” disposable aluminum tart pans which come with lids, which makes these easy to store and freeze too!

This recipe could be made into two 8” or 9” pies, or one large 10”. If making one large pie, you will have leftover pie crust.

Lots of opportunities to be creative with this recipe! However you decide to make it, I know it will be delicious!
