Homemade Chicken Pot Pie

Matthew HATES chicken pot pie. He would rather lick a toilet seat. He actually wrote a paragraph in 3rd grade about the most "tasteless, disgusting, nasty food on the planet" and it was this. I couldn't disagree more. Abby LOVES chicken pot pie. We haven't had it for a while because I can't do it Matthew, but this recipe is really good. There are lots of shortcuts to this, but I am putting in all the "made from scratch" stuff. Enjoy!!


1/3 c. butter
1/3 c. flour
1/3 c. chopped onion
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 t. pepper
1 can chicken broth
2/3 c. milk
3 c. cooked chicken
1 can whole new potatoes, diced
1 pkg (10 oz) frozen peas & carrots
1 pie crust
Melt butter in a pan. Stir in flour, onion, salt and pepper. Cook until bubbly. Stir in broth and milk. Heat to boiling. Boil about 1 minute or until thickened. Add chicken and veggies. Heat oven to 450. Fill the crust with filling. Bake for about 35 minutes.
