Recipe View 5 mins Gently stir in the shredded Cheddar cheese into the cooled filling until evenly distributed. Pour the cheesy chicken mixture into the bottom crust of your 9-inch pie dish.

Recipe View 40 mins Place the pot pie on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to catch any potential spills. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the top crust is beautifully golden brown and the filling is bubbling hot.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried thyme or rosemary to the chicken mixture.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables like diced potatoes, mushrooms, or corn based on your preferences.
If you're short on time, use store-bought pie crust for convenience.
To prevent the crust from browning too quickly, you can cover the edges with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking.

    I loved the addition of cornstarch for thickening the sauce. It created a creamy texture that wasn't too heavy. My family devoured it!
