My Favorite Easy Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

Comfort food is calling! My favorite easy homemade chicken pot pie recipe is the answer! It is the ultimate comfort food!

A plate of homemade chicken pot pie rests on a table adorned with a decorative lace-edged cloth. The dish boasts a golden-brown crust and a blend of colorful vegetables in creamy sauce. Text above reads "Easy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe," with the URL "www.homewithgraceandjoy.com" below.

Growing up, I always thought chicken pot pie came in a small pie tin in the grocery store freezer section. I don’t remember ever having it, but I didn’t think I would be a fan!

Many years ago I found Mary Cameron’s original version of this chicken pot pie recipe in one of our old church cookbooks. (You know that is where to find the best recipes!) I don’t know what made me ever try it for the first time, but I am glad I did!

We have tweaked it over the years to fit our family, and you can do the same. We love the top crust, so this recipe is close to a double crust. Jay does not like lima beans, so we watch which mixed vegetables we get. Tweak it to fit your family’s likes.

Chicken Pot Pie Filling Ingredients

    • Buttery Crust Ingredients

A frying pan on a stovetop is filled with cubed pieces of cooked chicken, resembling the filling for Chicken Pot Pie. The stovetop has four knobs and a burner in use, with a lid on one of the burners. A sign in the background reads "BREATH A NEW.
A collection of diced potatoes is spread out on a translucent cutting mat, ready as a perfect base for Chicken Pot Pie. Behind the potatoes are containers of ground black pepper and salt; the black pepper container is to the left of the salt shaker. The background is a brown countertop.
A kitchen counter displays a large white bowl filled with diced potatoes, ready for a hearty chicken pot pie. In front of the bowl are three canned goods: two labeled "That's Smart! Cream of Mushroom" and one labeled "Brookshire's Chicken Broth." Wooden cabinets are in the background.

A glass baking dish filled with an unbaked chicken pot pie mixture. The filling contains chunks of chicken, diced potatoes, green beans, peas, carrots, and corn, all mixed in a creamy sauce. The dish sits on a smooth, brown countertop.
A glass baking dish filled with a creamy, smooth mixture that has small, colorful bits scattered throughout, likely vegetables or seasonings, sits on a brown countertop. It looks like the filling for a Chicken Pot Pie, ready to be baked until golden and delicious.
A rectangular glass baking dish filled with a golden-brown chicken pot pie sits on a granite countertop. The dish has a nicely browned and slightly uneven top, suggesting it's freshly baked. Nearby is a white ceramic pot with a blue floral design.

Instructions

  1. Mix the first 5 ingredients together and pour into a greased 9X13 baking dish. (I use olive oil spray.)
  2. Mix the flour and milk together until all lumps are gone. Whisks work very well.
  3. Melt butter and add it to the flour mixture. Mix well. 
  4. Pour the crust mixture over the filling. 
  5. Bake in a 400 degrees preheated oven for 1 hour. (The crust should be a deep golden brown.)

Baking time may vary according to your oven. If the top of the pie starts getting brown, but it is not cooked thoroughly, cover the top of the crust with aluminum foil.

I cannot even begin to explain how delicious the top crust is on this savory pie. It has so much flavor and comes together so nicely with the creamy chicken mixture.

This comfort dish is an easy way to please your whole family. It is very flavorful, and it is even delicious warmed up the next day.

Additions, Tips, and Ideas

  • Use rotisserie chicken.
  • Use leftover turkey after Thanksgiving.
  • Season with salt and black pepper.
  • If you don’t like frozen peas, buy the frozen vegetables you like to create your own mixed vegetables.
  • Bake the chicken pot pie in a pie plate (or two) for presentation.
  • Store leftover chicken pot pie in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

  1. Chicken pot pie is one of my all time favorite meals, Susan. A good one is so hard to find though so I’m excited to try this recipe. Thanks so much for the extra tips about using a rotisserie chicken and for changing up the vegetables. I always have a small pile of little peas left on my plate 🙂 Big hugs, CoCo
