Easy 4-ingredient Chicken Pot Pies
Total Time: 1 hr
Preparation Time: 23 mins
Cook Time: 37 mins
Ingredients
- 3 cups frozen vegetables (bird's eye recipe ready stew blend)
- 2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans chicken gravy (3 1/2 cups)
- 2 (12 ounce) cans chunk chicken breasts, in water
- 1 (15 ounce) package refrigerated roll-out pie crusts
Recipe
- 1 note: if you use diced chicken other than canned chicken in broth -- you will need to add at least 1 cup chicken broth or extra gravy!
- 2 preheat oven to 425°f; select 5-6 ovenproof bowls or ramekins to hold 1 1/2 cups filling, leaving at least 1 inch space free below bowl rims.
- 3 place 3 cups bird's eye recipe ready stew blend frozen vegetables into a 2 1/2 quart pot (note: if you like green beans and/or corn in your pot pie you can replace a portion of the stew blend with these); cover with 2 inches hot water; heat to boiling; boil 2-3 minutes.
- 4 quickly drain, then return vegetables to pot; add the chicken gravy (scrape cans using a flexible spatula).
- 5 fold in the canned chicken including the liquid, until just blended (don't over-stir to keep the chicken in perfect chunks!).
- 6 unroll pie dough and place one segment on a floured surface; place inverted bakeware bowls or ramekins over dough; trace a knife around edge of bowls to cut circles; repeat with remaining dough to yield 6 even circular crusts (re-roll dough scraps if necessary).
- 7 arrange bowls on baking sheets; spray bowl interiors with non-stick cooking spray; pour 1 1/2 cups filling into bowls, distributing evenly.
- 8 place then press dough circles over filling to cover, levelly to the edges of baking dish (see photo); spray dough crust tops well with non-stick cooking spray for even browning; cut slits around the center of each prepared pastry to vent.
- 9 bake 30 minutes on center rack -- or until golden brown (note: for an enhanced golden color, spray crusts again with non-stick cooking spray during the final 10 minutes of baking). allow pies to cool slightly before serving.
- 10 serve and enjoy.
