In my post about the Reese Witherspoon book, Whiskey in a Teacup, I mentioned that among the recipes that she shared in her book, it is the Chicken Pot Pie that I want to try making first.
Chicken Pot Pie is one of Hubby’s favorites, but he usually just gets those that you see in the stores. I would prefer he’d eat a homemade one instead.
So with Reese’s recipe as an inspiration, I created this Chicken Pot Pie for dinner one night. But just to let you know, I didn’t follow her entire recipe. I decided to use other ingredients to make it much easier to prepare. Instead of fresh vegetables, I used the frozen mixed vegetables. And instead of using hash browns as the base, I just grabbed a store bought deep dish pie crust.
But I bet her version is delicious and the use of hash browns instead of pie crust is definitely interesting. When I am not super busy, I am definitely going to try her recipe following it word for word.
But for my version of Chicken Pot Pie, here’s the recipe if you want to try it yourself.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Rotisserie chicken
- 1 bag (12 oz) frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 medium sized onion, chopped
- 2 pie crusts (1 deep dish 9″)
- 1 can (10.75 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/4 cup water
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- Bake the deep dish pie crust for 7 – 10 minutes or until brown.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the chicken, vegetables, onion, cream of mushroom soup and water.
- Add salt and pepper and mix well.
- Pour on deep dish pie crust and cover with the other pie crust.
- Bake 45 – 55 minutes or until the top becomes brown.
- Let cool for 5 – 10 minutes.
- Serve and enjoy!
It was my first time to have prepared this dish. But it sure was delicious and I think that is the most important thing. And it met the approval of my husband and son too.
Look at those goodies. It was really delicious, y’all. And it’s going on the menu again next week.
Have you tried preparing Chicken Pot Pie before? If not yet, you should try this recipe. Really good!
I love Chicken Pot Pies and can’t wait to make this and have my sister over for Dinner. Although I wish I could find a Recipe for a Beef Pot Pie as well because that was mine and my moms favorite.
Never had Beef Pot Pie before. Sounds good!

Yum, this looks so delicious. I’ve always been a fan of chicken pot pies. I’ve never made one on my own.
We like to make savory pie or shepherds pie. Helps clean out the refrigerator from all the leftovers.
I love chicken pot pie. I have not had it in years. That would be a great meal on a weekend night when we have a little bit of time to make it. I love how easy this one is.

Those pictures were so appetizing and bursting with goodness. I would love to be able to make a pie so hearty as that one.

This reminds me of tourtière. It’s a very popular dish here in Quebec that people feast on over the holidays!
You had me at easy! This looks like a delicious dinner idea and I love that you used a rotisserie chicken.

Chicken pot pie is one of my signature dishes. It is one of the things that I know is always going to turn out well, so I often make it for first-time guests. I might try some of these shortcuts to see how it goes. Reese’s recipe sounds pretty interesting.
I was going to make pot pies over the Christmas holidays but didn’t get to it. The hashbrown base is a different idea. I will have to try that!
Ohhh, I love chicken pot pie, but haven’t made it in such a long time. This looks like a delish recipe!
