Comforting Chicken Pot Pie Bake

A traditional chicken pot pie is one of the most popular meals of all time, with its flaky, buttery crust, creamy, rich filling and hearty mix of chicken and vegetables–it’s classic comfort food at its finest. This revised Chicken Pot Pie Bake recipe is a modern twist on the homestyle standard that not only streamlines your work, but it also is just as warming, delicious, and hearty with all the comfy flavors that make you feel at home.

This easy Chicken Pot Pie Bake recipe is loaded with the tastiest hot, creamy filling mixed with chunky chicken and veggies–it’s the perfect combination of flavors and textures baked between two layers of flaky pie crust. And because we use a baking dish instead of a pie pan, this large-portioned pot pie makes it even simpler to cook comfort food in casserole form so you can easily feed a crowd!

How to Make the Recipe

This homemade Chicken Pot Pie Bake is prepared with 7 simple ingredients in about 20 minutes and bakes up into a hot and comforting, delicious casserole. You will love these easy shortcuts that put a unique spin on an old-fashioned favorite.

  1. Whisk together soup, milk, pepper, and onion powder. Stir in vegetables and chicken. Set aside.
    Pro-Tip: If you want a thicker filling, reduce the amount of milk, if you want a thinner filling increase the amount of milk. Your pie filling will thicken as it cools.

  2. Unroll pie crusts and roll each into a rectangle shape. Cut one crust in half and place each half on top of a whole crust. Roll to blend the two together and shape each new crust into a rectangle.
    Pro Tip: Do not roll too thin. The new rectangle should be slightly larger than a 9×13” glass baking dish.
  3. Press one crust into bottom and up sides of your baking dish.
    Pro Tip: The crust should be pressed all the way to the top edge of your baking dish, with some overlap.

  4. Pour soup mixture over the crust. Place the second crust over the soup mixture

  5. Pinch together the bottom and top crusts. Cut a few slits in the top crust for steam to escape.
    Pro Tip: If needed, tuck some of the excess from the top crust down along the outer edge of the bottom crust and pinch to seal.

  6. Bake until the crust is golden brown and filling is hot and bubbly.
    Pro Tip: Cover the crust edges with aluminum foil to prevent overbrowning if the top isn’t browned yet.

Ingredients
  

  • 3 refrigerated rolled pie crusts (you should buy 2 (14.1 ounce) packages of refrigerated pie crusts sheets. Use 3 of the 4 sheets.)
  • 22.6 oz can of cream of chicken soup
  • 3 cups whole milk
  • 1 tsp black pepper
