Recipe Summary Chicken Pot Pie On The Run
We have a favorite chicken pot pie recipe, but it's a long, drawn-out process. I knew I had to re-work it until it was just as tasty but twice as fast to make. This is the result and we love it.Ingredients | Best Frozen Chicken Pot Pie¼ cup butter¼ cup chopped onion¼ cup all-purpose flour¼ teaspoon salt (Optional)¼ teaspoon black pepper1 (10.75 ounce) can reduced-fat, reduced-sodium condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted1 (10.75 ounce) can 2% low-fat milk1 ½ cups meat from rotisserie chicken, skinned and cubed1 (29 ounce) can mixed vegetables (such as Veg-All®), drained1 (9 inch) refrigerated pie crust (such as Pillsbury®)DirectionsPreheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the onion with butter until translucent, about 5 minutes.
