Chicken Pot Pie Recipe
A foolproof, family-favorite recipe tested and perfected for incredible flavor with simple preparation.
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs boneless skinless chicken breasts, sliced or cubed
- 2 cups all-purpose flour (spooned and leveled)
- 3/4 cup granulated white sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened at room temperature
- 2 large eggs at room temperature
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 1/2 tsp baking powder and 1/4 tsp salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your baking pan or sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the dry ingredients. In a separate bowl, cream the butter and sugar, then beat in eggs and vanilla until smooth. Gently fold wet into dry.
Transfer the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 23 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
Tips for the Best Results
- Use chicken thighs for juicier results, or chicken breast for a leaner option.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes after cooking to keep it moist.
- Season generously — don't be shy with herbs and spices.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
