Loaf Pan Creamy Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe Defies Logic by Melissa Vickers
Chicken pot pie is the epitome of comfort food. I’ve always loved a good pot pie for dinner, especially the crust. I grew up eating the frozen ones that I liked as a kid. The frozen ones have improved since then! This chicken pot pie recipe is simple and makes use of a refrigerated pie crust – and it’s cooked in a loaf pan for a smaller pie. The round crust gets draped on the rectangular pan, proving, I suppose, that you can put a round pie crust in a square (rectangular) hole!
You don't need a long list of ingredients either for this chicken pot pie recipe. All you need is a box of refrigerated pie crusts, butter, flour, seasoning of choice, frozen mixed vegetables, cooked chicken, broth and heavy whipping cream. The filling is prepared in the stovetop then poured into a loaf pan that's lined with a pie crust. The crust is folded over the filling and baked for about 45 minutes.
Serve this small-batch chicken pot pie for lunch or dinner with your favorite side dishes.
