Quick chicken pot pie

We enjoy chicken pot pie  and I mostly make it in fall and winter.

Today’s was a quick imo meal.

I had rotisserie chicken in my freezer so I had it defrosted overnight not really knowing what I was going to make with it.

Today it came into place with all the ingredients handy.

So it’s Short cut chicken pot pie!

Note: I usually use my own cooked chicken and broth that I thicken with flour.  This was an easy game changer. I used cornstarch …to thicken it. 

It was thinner than I usually make mine so next time I’ll increase the cornstarch to more.  The amount is corrected in my above recipe,  I used 2 T cornstarch and I believe 3 T would thicken it better.  I also would add the extra carrot and potato for a more hearty a pot pie.

Enjoy!

2 +cups of rotisserie chicken shredded , 

1- 15 oz. can of chicken broth, 

1 cup of milk 

1 regular size can of cream of chicken soup 

3 tablespoons of cornstarch.

1 tablespoon of butter

One small onion, grated

One to 2 carrots shredded fine

2 small diced potato 

In a medium size pot place butter on low heat.  Add, onion, carrot and potato .  Simmer for a few minutes.

Add chicken broth.  Cook until you are sure potato is tender.  Add cream of chicken soup and milk. Stir and Cook slowly.  

In a separate dish add cornstarch and Make a thin paste of cornstarch with a little of your soup mix.  Slowly add to soup mixture.  Bring to a light boil. Add shredded chicken and stir until thick.

As you can see I tried to strain the cornstarch and made a little mess.

2/3 cup milk. Stir until milk is absorbed.

Place soup mixture in a buttered casserole dish.  Add dollops of  dumpling size spoonfuls to top of hot mixture
