BAKED POT PIE RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• Heat olive oil in a 9 or 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and sauté until cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
• Add the onion to the skillet. Sauté until tender and lightly browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the peas and carrots and garlic and cook 1 minute more. Sprinkle in the flour and stir until the flour dissolves. Add the chicken broth, bring to a simmer, and stir until thickened, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn off the heat, stir in the milk, and season as needed with salt and pepper.
• Add the chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. Unfold the pie crust and place over the top of the filling, tucking the excess edges inside the pan. Use a sharp knife to cut 4 (1-inch) slits in the top of the crust to vent. Bake until the crust is golden-brown, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour, onion, salt and pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, until mixture is bubbly; remove from heat. Stir in broth and milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in chicken and peas and carrots; remove from heat.
• Heat oven to 425°F. Roll 1 pie crust into 13-inch square. Ease into ungreased 9-inch (2-quart) glass baking dish. Pour chicken mixture into crust-lined dish.
• Roll remaining pie crust into 11-inch square. Cut out designs with 1-inch cookie cutter. Place square over chicken mixture. Arrange cutouts on top crust. Turn edges of pie crust under; flute edge.
• Bake about 35 minutes or until golden brown.
