Cheddar Chicken PotPie Recipe

Cheddar Chicken PotPie RecipePhoto by: Taste of Home Cheddar Chicken PotPie Recipe Rating 5

Cheese soup is one of my favorites, but it's a bit too rich for my husband's tastes. So, by changing the ingredients a little, I came up with a variation of potpie we both enjoy. (If I'm in a hurry and don't have the time this takes to bake, I'll leave off the crust, add extra milk and serve it as a chowder.

Cheddar Chicken PotPie Recipe
  • Prep: 30 min. Bake: 40 min.
  • Yield: 6 Servings
30 40 70

Ingredients

  • CRUST:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 5 tablespoons cold butter, cubed
  • 3 tablespoons cold water
  • FILLING:
  • 1-1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups peeled cubed potatoes
  • 1 cup sliced carrots
  • 1/2 cup sliced celery
  • 1/2 cup chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1-1/2 cups milk
  • 2 cups (8 ounces) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 4 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1/4 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  • For crust, in a small bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut butter in flour until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the water, mixing gently with a fork. Gather into a ball. Cover with plastic wrap and chill at least 30 minutes.
  • For filling, Place broth in a Dutch oven; bring to a boil. Add vegetables. Reduce heat; simmer 10-15 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • In a small bowl, combine flour and milk; stir into broth mixture. Cook and stir over medium heat until slightly thickened and bubbly. Stir in cheese, chicken, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Heat until cheese melts. Spoon into a 10-in. (2-1/2 to 3-qt.) casserole. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll crust to fit top of casserole, trimming edges as necessary. Place on casserole over filling; seal edges. Make several slits in center of crust for steam to escape.
  • Bake at 425° for 40 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 6 servings.

<p>This recipe is awesome however, I changed a few things and added some frozen peas and green beans. I used my own pie crust recipe, used organic whole milk, tapioca starch instead of flour, and sea salt instead regular, I used my 1-cup chopper to chop my celery and onion into being more minced then chopped.  I also reduce cooking time to 350 for and hour. All and all this is a wonderful recipe I am so glad I found it.</p>

This is a delicious variation on Chicken Pot Pie. We did use our own pastry recipe but the filling was simple to make and a nice change.

A little time consuming to make, but it isn't bad. It reminds me of something my grandmother would have made. I added a lot more spices to it so it had more flavor, but overall pretty good! Next time I may just eat it as a stew or soup. Thank you for the idea!

This was oh so yummy! The filling would be good as just a soup as the author stated.

Next time I will omit the poultry seasoning, it was too strong and very noticable.

Everyone loved it, except for the celery. I used someone else's idea and tried the puff pastry for the crust. Should have decreased the cooking time slightly.

Great dish. I used turkey instead of chicken & a puff pastry and it was delicious!

Very yummy! However, it did taste a little bland so I added cream of chicken and cream of mushroom and it was awesome! My family loves it and requests it often.
