Though this recipe is nothing incredibly fancy, everyone
loves it and it’s so easy to make. I made this for dinner tonight and figured
I’d put this out there for anyone who wants to give it a try.
Start off by cooking the chicken. I use drumsticks for this.
For a single pot pie you only need 4 or 5 of them.
Drizzle olive oil all over them and sprinkle
them with salt and pepper. Stick them into the oven to bake at 350 degrees for
about 45 minutes.
Once they’re done, take them out and let them cool so you can debone them.
While the chicken is cooling, now is a good time to get
started on the potatoes. Peel about 3 or 4 small to medium potatoes.
Cut them into small cubes and boil them until they are
cooked, but still tender; about 10 minutes. Keep an eye on them though; if you
boil them too long they will turn to mush.

Dump in the potatoes with the chicken.
Add peas or mixed veggies. The amount doesn’t matter. If
they’re frozen, boil them for a couple of minutes first.
Add a can of cream of chicken soup
and some salt and pepper.
Mix well.
Now it’s time to get your pie pans ready. Take a minute to
preheat your oven. I set it at 450 degrees.
If you’re incredibly handy you can make your own piecrust
with your favorite recipe.
I am not incredibly handy.
Unroll the piecrust into the
bottom of a round pan or baking dish. Each pack of these comes with two.
Press it against the bottom of the pan with your fingers.
Add the filling and press it down into the crust.
Into the oven they go for 20 minutes. Since all of the
filling is cooked already, the goal here is to get the piecrust nice and brown.
Ta-da!
Let it sit for 5 to 10 minutes. If you cut into it right
away it’ll be a mess.
And that’s it. Simple, cheap and oh so yummy.
That looks delicious!!
