Chicken Pot Pie
Here it is. The recipe I've perfected over the last year. We usually eat the whole pan in less than two days. However, I recommend doubling it for a 9x13 pan. I use a 9" pie plate for just the two of us.
Chicken Pot Pie
5 T. canola oil
1/2 cup of flour
3/4 cup of milk
1 can of chicken broth
2 cups of frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, green beans, peas, and corn is what I use)
1/2 lb-1 lb of diced raw chicken (the amount you use depends on how chicken-y you like it)
1 t. each of salt and pepper
1 t. of poultry seasoning
1 sheet of pie pastry
Season the chicken with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning. Cook in a deep skillet in some olive oil. Once cooked, remove chicken to a plate. Add the canola oil to the pan and wait for it to heat. Then add the flour and let it cook for about 2-3 minutes. Whisk in the milk and chicken broth and let thicken. Once it's thick, add the frozen vegetables and chicken. Stir well.
Pour into a 9" pie pan and cover with pie pastry. Slit the top and crimp the edges.
Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes.

Wow! This is almost identical to my version that I posted last fall. Great minds think alike I guess. :) This is real comfort food for everyone I think!
