Yummy Chicken Pot Pie
Recipe Description:
Easy, hearty and wholesome chicken pot pie that will have everyone clamouring for seconds.
Ingredients:
- Pot Pie Filling
- 8 chicken breasts, trimmed of fat and cut into chunks
- 15 oz can french style green beans, drained well
- 15 oz can whole kernel corn, drained well
- 15 oz can cut carrots, drained well
- 2 10.75 oz cans cream of mushroom soup
- 6 tbsps chopped garlic
- 6 tbsps dehydrated chopped onion
- 4 tbsps ground black pepper
- 4 rolled refrigerated pie crusts
- 4 gallon sized freezer bags
- Makes 2 pies
Directions:
Cook chicken breasts and allow to cool. Break up chicken chunks with fork. Mix ingredients for pot pie filling together. Pour 1/2 of pot pie filling into one gallon sized freezer bag and the other half into a second bag. Squeeze out extra air and seal tightly. Put 1 bag of pot pie filling and two pie crusts together into another gallon-sized freezer bag. Seal, label, date and freeze. Thaw 1 pot pie and allow its crusts to thaw and come to room temperature. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line the inside of a deep pie dish with one crust. Pour in filling and cover with second crust. Seal the edges with pleats and cut four small slits in the top, radiating out from the middle. Cover only crust edges with tin foil to prevent them from cooking too quickly. Bake for 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown. In last ten minutes of cooking, take off tin foil so that crust edges may brown as well. Serve hot.
