Can You Freeze Chicken Pot Pie

This question comes up a lot and the answer is yes! The best way to achieve this is to prepare your chicken pot pie up to the point before baking.

Cover with plastic wrap and then aluminum foil and place in the freezer for up to 1 month.

Freezing Tip: On top of the foil, write baking time and temperature in sharpie marker and the date you froze your dish.

Remove foil and plastic wrap before baking. Place frozen pie on a sheet pan and bake for 20-30 minutes longer than fresh bake.

Be sure the center is bubbling and crust is baked before removing.

Chicken Pot Pie Ingredients

1 Package Pillsbury Pie Crust brought to room temperature
1 10 oz. can Campbell's Cream of Chicken Soup
2 1/2 cups shredded roasted chicken (or rotisserie chicken)
butter
1 small onion, chopped
bag frozen mixed vegetables
1/2 cup water, or chicken broth
garlic powder, salt & pepper to taste

Directions:

To ensure your potpie cooks evenly, be sure to preheat your oven to 425 degrees. This will make this dish cook thoroughly and create that golden flaky crust!

Next, you will place 1 pie crust sheet that has been defrosted for 15 minutes in the bottom of the 9-inch pie plate. Set this aside so it is ready to pour your filling.

Now, over medium heat, melt butter in a medium saucepan.

Add onions and cook uncovered until soft and translucent. This should take about 5 minutes or so.

Add soup and water (or broth), and stir until hot and a little bubbly. I like to use a wooden spoon for this cooking step because it is better for the pan and also makes me feel like I am cooking a homemade meal!

A healthy way to get your daily servings of vegetables is by having frozen vegetables on hand for cooking quick meals like our pot pie recipe, soup, or pasta dishes.

This recipe uses one bag of frozen mixed vegetables and now is the step to add them to your saucepan. Stir to incorporate into the soup mixture until nice hot.

There is nothing easier or quicker for a hearty meal than grabbing a rotisserie chicken at the store. I throw one of these in my shopping cart at least once a week to save time.

In this instance, I just shred up the meat and add it to the pot with spices and simmer it until it starts to bubble.

Pour mixture into the pie shell you set aside and drape the second pastry shell over the top.

Seal the crust with your fingers or with the tines of a fork to keep all the gravy goodness inside!

Slice 4 small slits in the top crust with a paring knife to allow the steam to vent while baking.

Place your pie plate on a sheet pan to catch any spillover and keep your oven cl ean! If you forget, no worries- you can use oven cleaner to get rid of spillover!
