Instructions

Follow these steps to create your delicious casserole.

Prepare the Casserole

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen vegetables, cream of chicken soup, milk, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Stir until well combined.

Assemble the Dish

Roll out one pie crust into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Pour the chicken mixture into the crust.
Cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges and cutting slits for ventilation.

Bake the Casserole

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

For the best flavor in your Easy Chicken Pot Pie Casserole, consider seasoning your shredded chicken with a bit of barbecue sauce or herbs before mixing it into the casserole. This step can elevate the taste, adding layers of flavor that make each bite even more delightful.

To ensure a perfectly flaky crust, let the pie crust sit at room temperature for about 15 minutes before rolling it out. This will make it easier to work with and give you that desirable texture once baked. For an extra touch, brush the top crust with an egg wash for a golden finish.

Serving Suggestions

Pair your chicken pot pie casserole with a simple side salad for a well-rounded meal. A fresh green salad with a tangy vinaigrette can balance the richness of the casserole, providing a refreshing contrast to the creamy filling.

You can also serve it with crusty bread or garlic bread, making it an excellent option for dipping into the delicious sauces. It’s comfort food at its finest, and the warmth of the casserole can create a truly inviting dinner atmosphere.

Storage and Reheating

If you find yourself with leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3-4 days. This casserole keeps well, allowing you to enjoy its comforting flavors for several meals.

When reheating, be sure to do so slowly to maintain the texture of the crust. Using an oven to reheat is preferable, keeping it covered with foil while warming to ensure the filling retains moisture. This way, each slice tastes just as good as when it was freshly baked!
