Do you love homemade chicken pot pies? Do you think they are too hard to make them yourself? Jamie is sharing an easy way to make chicken pot pies yourself using puff pastry. This recipe is a great combination of wholesome fresh ingredients and the convenience of a flaky, pre-made crust!

How to Make Chicken Pot Pies

Use fresh chopped vegetables in your chicken pot pies recipe

In a large pot over medium heat, melt butter. Add in onion, garlic, celery and carrots until onion is translucent. Add in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually add in chicken broth and milk stirring constantly. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to low. Add in chicken and peas and simmer for 5 minutes.

Use the ramekin as a guide to cut the puff pastry and make a crust for the chicken pot pies

To make the crust, cut 4 circles out of the puff pastry, large enough to cover the top of each ramekin.

Divide chicken pot pie filling between 4 ramekins

Divide the chicken pot pie filling among 4 ramekins and cover each ramekin with a puff pastry circle, pulling the pastry down over the sides.

Beat egg and water together and brush over the top of the puff pastry. 

Cut a small circle into the center of each puff pastry and bake for 35-40 minutes or until top is golden brown.

Welcome. I'm Alea!

On Premeditated Leftovers I share simple recipes made with whole foods, practical shopping tips, time saving techniques, and meal planning strategies. I also share tips for minimizing food waste, so more of the food that is purchased ends up on the table.

While volunteering as a budget counselor, I realized that food is the element of most people’s budgets where they have the greatest control. I set out to develop low-cost recipes from scratch to prove it’s possible to create delicious meals on a limited budget. Eating well while spending less is about more than just creating recipes using inexpensive ingredients; it’s about creatively combining ingredients so you don’t feel deprived and are inspired to stick to your budget.
