Follow The Directions

01

Step

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Gently place 1 pie crust in a 9-inch pie plate. Set the second crust aside. (5 minutes)

02

Step

Remove the skin from the rotisserie chicken and shred the meat into bite-sized pieces. (10 minutes)

03

Step

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, salt, and pepper until a smooth paste forms, about 2-3 minutes. (10 minutes)

04

Step

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly until the sauce thickens and is smooth, about 5 minutes. (5 minutes)

05

Step

Gently fold in the shredded chicken and thawed mixed vegetables, ensuring everything is well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust. (5 minutes)

06

Step

Carefully place the second pie crust on top of the filling, crimping the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. For extra protection, wrap the edges of the crust with foil to prevent over-browning. (10 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the top crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, approximately 25-30 minutes. Remove foil during the last 10 minutes of baking if needed for even browning. (30 minutes)

08

Step

Let the pot pie cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the filling to set slightly.

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of dry sherry or white wine to the sauce while it simmers.
Fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary can also elevate the dish, adding an aromatic touch to the filling.
If you don't have a rotisserie chicken on hand, you can use leftover cooked chicken or poach a few chicken breasts and shred them.
To prevent a soggy bottom crust, pre-bake the bottom crust for 10 minutes before adding the filling.
An egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water) brushed over the top crust before baking will give it an extra golden and glossy finish.
