I loved this recipe. The bottom crust was perfectly cooked and the amount of chicken was perfect. Thx
Crust~ 1/2 cup sour cream, 1 beaten egg, mix. 2.5 cups flour, 1 tap salt, blend together. 12 tbsp unsalted butter cut up, pulse with flour. Add half of the sour cream mix, pulse. Add the rest of sour cream mix until totally combined. Kneed together. Flour surface. Kneed until cohesive. Split in half. Shape into disks. Wrap with plastic and fridge for 1 hour. Make up to 2 days ahead. Sit out for 10 mins to soften a little. Flour surface. Roll until 12 inches. Put 1 into pie plate. Don’t stretch. Pat in. Put over on parchment sheet. Chill again for 30 minutes. Take out and use.
Why not prebake the bottom crust?
I've made this twice. I like how easy the dough is to make and roll out. Definitely a crowd pleaser at my home.
this recipe is very good. BUT – anything leftover is very dry – there is the cream sauce, as it's been absorbed into the meat/vegetables. so any leftovers are very dry and UNfulfilling. i've made this recipe five times in the last year, and it always turns out the same – great the first time, but leftovers are just extremely disappointing.
Amazing! I can’t wait to make this version. Thank you. ❤
Here’s a crazy idear… sub the sour cream with French onion dip 😉
Supermarket rotisserie chicken is expired chicken never buy a rotisserie chicken. Did you think that they just went out and got the freshest chicken in the store and cook them in the rotisserie no they get the old expired rotisserie chicken from the frozen meat department and they cook that
I like to watch this channel you are
Good chefs
Well, First time I made this incredibly delicious pie and came out perfect. Everyone enjoyed . Will make again. The recipe is just perfect.Thanks girls ❤❤❤
❤❤❤❤
Just made this. Best. Agree with many below. Cook times very. Potatoes took longer. Pie crust perfect. Filling is exact. Let the Filling Sit. Sat for an hour. Still warm. Cut like a champ! Made a dinner party perfect. Surpise! Good food.
My mom did something similar to this with leftover roast beef, she would cut up the roast and veggies, thicken the gravy and then put it in a crust. So good on a fall day
Turnovers turned out well, thanks vey much for sharing. Me and kiddo in Colorado will enjoy every slice. All I need now is some bacon 😁
Excellent!
This is my new favorite movie LOL
Can i use the pillsbury premade pie crusts for this?
2nd attempt… Way better, ty ladies..
Love this recipe I will make it thank you so much and may God Bless 🙏
Looking forward to making this savory pie!
Don't ever use rotisserie chicken for anything. It's poison.
That is the best looking chicken pot pie containing the most chicken meat I have seen in my eighty plus years. I look forward to trying this recipe, for which I thank you!
To thick , I like the gravy thinner , and individual little pies . Looks more like a chicken casarole. 🐔
Ali chicken pot pie. https://youtube.com/shorts/bjCSFbAnMQ0?feature=share
They make the pastry look so easy. It’s really hard😭😭😭😂😂😂
Love love this, I used a big 10 glass pie pan, increased veggies a bit and used 3 smoked chicken breasts. It made 6 huge servings!
Can you freeze the pie once it’s baked? Or is it better to freeze it before you bake it?
Thank you for sharing this recipe! I am not good at making pies and I was able to make this successfully, even rolling out the dough! Thank you so much, I am excited to make this again
Made this today for dinner…. so much better than store bought… amazing.
I made one tonight, and will see how it turns out tomorrow, for Easter. Thanks for moving the video along. The only question that I have is: how to store and reheat it?
