My grandmother hand-wrote a cookbook; she supplied the best pie crust, and I created the delicious soup for it. —Karen LeMay, Pearland, Texas

  • Yield: 6 Servings
20 20 40

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1-1/4 teaspoons salt
  • 2/3 cup shortening
  • 5 to 6 tablespoons 2% milk
  • SOUP:
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 cup cubed peeled potatoes
  • 1 cup chopped sweet onion
  • 2 celery ribs, chopped
  • 2 medium carrots, chopped
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 3 cans (14-1/2 ounces each) chicken broth
  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken
  • 1 cup frozen petite peas
  • 1 cup frozen corn

Directions

  • In a large bowl, mix flour and salt; cut in shortening until crumbly. Gradually add milk, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Shape into a disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or overnight.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Using a floured 2-1/2-in. heart-shaped or round cutter, cut 18 shapes. Place 1 in. apart on ungreased baking sheets. Bake at 425° for 8-11 minutes or until golden brown. Cool on a wire rack.
  • For soup, in a Dutch oven, heat butter over medium-high heat. Add the potatoes, onion, celery and carrots; cook and stir for 5-7 minutes or until onion is tender.
  • Stir in the flour, salt and pepper until blended; gradually whisk in broth. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 8-10 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Stir in remaining ingredients; heat through. Serve with pastries. Yield: 6 servings.

So Yummy! When I make this, I make a double batch so we can have leftovers. Also, I use an all-ready pie crust to cut down on the time.

We live in Nicaragua and making this Chicken Potpie soup brings us comfort from back home!

This was great comfort food for me. I made it gluten-free by using 1/4 cup cornstarch in place of the flour. I made biscuits on the side using GF Bisquick. I used canned chicken from Trader Joe's (12oz), which made this very easy to put together. This really hit the spot!

I followed the recipe and this soup was great. I didnt make the pie crust though, i had just made baguettes. Will try the pie crust next time i make it.

I thought the pastry was just okay, but the soup was fantastic! The only thing I added to the recipe was a tablespoon of dried parsley.

This was a good start recipe.I of course made my changes. I used 2 cans of chicken broth..Cooked the onions, celery, and carrots for 2 minutes in the butter. Then added the potatoes and chicken broth, brought up to a boil, then reduced to medium/low heat covered and simmered for 15 minutes. Mixed the flour with 1/2 pint of half and half. Added to the pot and then added 1/2 cup 2% milk and 1/2 cup water. Brought back to a boil and added the frozen veggies.

I made white cheddar and bacon drop biscuits instead of the pastries. Hubby loved it!

This was so good and easy to make. Looks and tastes like pot pie. Even the picky kid had seconds. I did use store bought pie crust. Will absolutely make this again.

Husband & I loved it. I cheated with store-bought rotisserie chicken and it was fantastic. I plan on using store bought pie crust next time. With those two substitutions this can be an quick weeknight dinner. Great for lunch the next day too.

Very good & easy to make.

Loved this recipe! Tastes like chicken potpie and has a rich, creamy flavor. I used my own pie crust recipe and the family loved the dish with the little pastries.

I really liked this creamy soup. I used homemade chicken broth and leftover chicken and it was delicious and fast. I liked the pastry toppers. It made alot more than we needed, and since my family thought the leftovers were cookies, I decided next time I will sprinkle cinnamon sugar on half the cutouts and have dessert as well.

Excellent flavor. Easy to make and adapt. Excellent to use up leftover chicken. I also used a leftover pie crust instead of the pastry recipe because I wanted to use it up. My husband and son loved the pastry. You could certainly add more broth (what I put in was a few ounces extra, but it was still pretty thick). Enough leftover to freeze for another day!

I found 1/8" for the pie crust to be too thin to adequately make the pie dough "cookies" and so used it at closer to 1/4". I like that the soup is thicker than most chicken soup, but will likely add a bit more broth the next time I make it, because I like a brothier soup, and this tends to thicken more and more as it cooks and then cools.

This soup was very good. Did skip the biscuits.

This was wonderful. I didn't make the crust. The soup had the chicken potpie taste without the extra carbs. A definite keeper

This was wonderful even though I didn't fool with the crust. It didn't need the extra carbs as it was soo good.

Loved this version of cream of chicken soup. I increased the recipe by half, and it was a little thick, so I added some milk until it was the consistency I wanted. I'm sure it would have been just as tasty dairy-free, however. Also, I was short on time, so I made our favorite quick-mix drop biscuits instead of the pie pastry, and that was good, too. Maybe next time I make it, I'll be able to get the pie pastry done, too! My family gave this a big thumbs up!

THis is very good, I also added dill seed, sage, poulty seasoning, chicken seasoning, and musturd. I also pressred the whole chicken and used its juices for the broth. The spiced blended so well. THe kids said, " This is so good"!

Wow, this is REALLY GOOD, tastes just like a pot pie. I did add a little of my favorite spices curry and thyme, don't forget the crust it pulls it all together, I didn't have time to make the crust and used a pre made one and it was just TOO GOOD. I will definitely be making this often.

Super yummy! I even used whole wheat flour and it was still great. This is going to be a regular...lots of veggies and hearty flavor.

This was a huge hit with my family. We LOVED it! I'm so glad I doubled the recipe so we'll have some leftovers. Don't skip the little heart shape crusts to float on top! Definitely one I will make again!
