I have to begin by giving credit to Pioneer Woman as that is where this easy chicken pie recipe comes from! Paul and I absolutely love watching cooking shows together and, truth be told, we watch The Pioneer Woman every Saturday morning on Food Network. She has taught us so much and we loved making this Pioneer Woman chicken pie! 🙂
I did modify this chicken pot pie recipe with pie crust and chose not to add a top layer of crust, hence the easy chicken pie recipe title because it is technically not a ‘pot pie’.
Also, please note that this is a chicken pie recipe with frozen pie crust. You may choose to make a homemade pie crust or opt out and buy a frozen pie crust at your local grocery store! We used a Pillsbury pie crust for this easy chicken pie recipe and it turned out delicious!
Feel free to serve this chicken pie with mashed potatoes for a delightful Southern meal!
