Step-by-Step Guide to Prepare Favorite Simple Classic Chicken Pot Pie

Hello everyone, this is John, welcome to my cookbook. Today I'm going to show you how to make a signature dish, "Classic Chicken Casserole" in quick and easy steps. One of my favorite recipes. I'll do it a little differently. It will be delicious.

Truth be told, cooking is not the only priority in the life of every man, woman or child on this planet. In fact, many people value cooking in their lives. This means that people often choose convenience foods and packaged mixes instead of spending the time and effort to prepare healthy meals for family and personal enjoyment.

Preparing healthy meals can be difficult because most of us don't want to take the time to plan and prepare meals that our family members won't eat. At the same time, we want our families to be healthy, so we are compelled to find new and better ways to cook healthy meals that families can enjoy (and, unfortunately , in some cases, ridicule).

Many would argue that preparing healthy meals costs more than preparing foods packed with calories and additives. The bottom line is that if you compare the costs of not complying with this requirement to their future medical bills, they will seem very small in comparison. Yes, fancy food costs more. Often this is just a fact of life. But by controlling portions and eating the right portions, you may find that you're spending less now that you're eating the right amount of food you need to live a healthy and fulfilling life.

The taste of a simple classic chicken pot pie is influenced by many factors, from the type of ingredients, the choice of fresh ingredients, the ability to cut the dishes, the way they are prepared and served. If you want to prepare a delicious classic chicken pot pie at home, do not worry, because if you already know how to prepare it, this dish can be used as a refined specialty.

This tube version is my all time favorite and what I think of when I think of "classic" or "traditional".

Ingredients and seasonings to make a simple classic chicken pot pie

1. 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless, raw chicken breast, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
2. 1 1/2 cups potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch slices
3. 1 cup 1/4" carrot slices
4. 1 cup frozen peas
5. 1/3 cup + 2 teaspoons unsalted butter
6. 1/3 cup chopped yellow onion
7. 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
8. 1 teaspoon of sea salt
9. 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
10. 1/4 teaspoon sesame seeds
11. 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
12. 1 1/2 cups plain chicken stock
13. 2/3 cup milk (1%)
14. 2 frozen pie crusts (9 inches)

Steps to make a simple classic chicken pot pie

1. Combine the raw shredded chicken, carrots, peas, and potatoes in a medium saucepan. Add enough water to cover and a little salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes or until carrots and potatoes are tender. After boiling, put it on a plate and let it stand.
2. Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit. Grease a 2-quart baking dish with 2 teaspoons of butter. Open the baking sheet and press into the plate, shaping and pressing from the center out and extending the edges of the plate to the top edge. If you have tears, just squeeze them together. Report it.
3. In the same pan used for the chicken mixture, melt the butter over medium heat. When melted, add the onion and cook until translucent, stirring frequently. About 3 minutes. For the dressing, whisk together the flour, salt, pepper, sesame seeds and thyme. Cook until the roux is golden brown, stirring frequently. About 2 more minutes.
4. Add the chicken broth and milk in small portions, stirring constantly so that there are no lumps or sticking to the bottom. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. About 5 minutes. Turn off the fire. Gently stir the chicken and vegetable mixture into the pan.
5. Pour the filling on the bottom of the cake, make it smooth. Open the top crust and add, pinching to seal the edges (use a fork for a better seal). At the top, make several openings for steam ventilation. Place in the oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
6. Remove from the oven and, if necessary, brush the top with an additional spoonful of butter to melt the coating. Let cool for 10 minutes, remove and enjoy!
