Chicken pot pie
Also known as: Chicken pot pie, frozen entree, prepared
American chicken pot pie with creamy vegetable filling beneath a flaky pastry lid.

About Chicken pot pie
Chicken pot pie is an American savoury pie of chicken and vegetables in gravy under pastry. This profile follows King Arthur Baking's classic version, fixing chicken rather than the offered turkey and using the stated white-vinegar crust branch.
Chicken stock and butter give the filling a rounded savoury richness, with peas, carrots and pearl onions adding sweetness and freshness. Black pepper seasons the creamy gravy while the butter-and-shortening pastry contributes a mild tang and toasted flavour.
The pie has a deeply golden, vented pastry lid over a pale, glossy filling. Torn chicken and distinct green peas, orange carrots and small pearl onions sit in a thick sauce, while the crust breaks into tender flaky layers.
