Sunday has rolled around with scary speed, and – yet again – you’re stuck for what on earth to make the kids for dinner.
I’m here to help, with a simple recipe that ticks all the boxes.
My chicken pot pie is easy to make, requires just a few ingredients (and minimal faff), and pleases children and adults alike.
I made this for my son, Zac, for the first time and he was a huge fan.
It’s such a simple, cheat’s version of making a chicken pie using things that you likely already have at home.
The recipe below makes four medium pies. I had leftover mix, which I then used in a bigger pie with added shredded chicken, onions, and mushroom, which was even better.
How to make my simple chicken pot pie
Ingredients:
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1 can cream chicken soup
- 1 cup grated cheddar
- 1 cup of mixed frozen veg
- 1 egg (egg wash)
Method:
- Start by mixing your soup, veggies and cheese together in a bowl and set aside.
- Take your puff pastry and cut out circles so there is an even number (one lid and one base for each pie). With the left over pastry I made little flowers for decoration.
- Place circles in a well greased cupcake/muffin tray and push down so no air pockets. Take a fork and make holes.
- Fill with pie mix and place another circle on top as a lid. Seal the edges with a fork and make holes with a knife so hot air can leave. Brush egg wash all over pies.
- Place in a hot oven for 20 minutes until cooked through and golden.
- Let cool slightly and remove from tray. Enjoy!
