Making Cracker Barrel Chicken Pot Pie is quite easy and only requires a few simple following steps:

Ingredients

– 3-1/2 cups shredded chicken from a rotisserie chicken

– 1 cup sliced carrot

– 2/3 cup all-purpose flour

– 1 cup milk

– 3/4 cup diced onion

– 2/3 cup butter

– 2/3 tsp ground pepper

– 1-1/2 tsp salt

– 1-1/4 cup peeled and diced potato

– 2 cups chicken broth

– 1 cup peas

– ⅓ tsp poultry seasoning

– ⅓ tsp dried thyme

– 2 Honey Maid Pie Crusts

– 1 egg beaten together with 1 tablespoon of water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and add the carrots, potatoes, onions, pepper, salt and poultry seasoning. Cook for 8-10 minutes stirring occasionally until the vegetables are tender.

Step 3

Add in the shredded chicken and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until heated through then remove from heat.

Step 4

In a separate saucepan over medium heat, whisk together flour and broth until smooth then slowly add in milk while whisking continuously until thickened; about 5 minutes. Add this mixture to the skillet with chicken and vegetables and stir everything together until combined then set aside to cool slightly while you prepare the crust.

Step 5

Grease a 9-inch pie dish and place one of the pie crusts inside, pressing it up against the sides to fit. Fill with chicken and vegetable mixture then top with frozen peas.

Step 6

Place second crust on top of filling and crimp edges together to form a seal. Cut some slits in the center for steam release then brush all over with egg wash.

Step 7

Place in preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes until golden brown on top; let cool slightly before serving warm.

Tips

• To keep your pot pie from getting soggy, ensure that you have cooked down your vegetables before adding them to your filling – you don’t want too much liquid in your filling as this will make it soggy.

• If you’re using store-bought rotisserie chicken, make sure to remove the skin and bones before shredding – this will ensure that your pot pie has a more pleasant texture.

• For extra flavor add half of a teaspoon of garlic powder to your filling mixture.
