I’m always looking for ways to speed up school night dinners.  With homework, bath time, and bedtime stories, there isn’t always a lot of time for cooking a quick and nourishing family meal, but this recipe keeps things really simple.

Leftover rotisserie chicken is perfect for a quick, comforting pot pie. Its tender, flavorful meat saves time and adds richness to every bite. Just shred the chicken, toss it with vegetables, and cover with a flaky crust for a cozy meal that’s both easy and delicious. Plus, using leftovers means less food waste and more flavor!

Make the pie ahead:

This pie filling only took me 15 minutes to prepare.  I put the breast strips in the fridge to thaw overnight so they were ready to use the next day and I also prepared the filling in the morning so all I needed to do before baking was top it with the pre-rolled pastry, add the egg wash, and throw it in the oven.  Easy!

Bake for 25 – 30 minutes and allow to cool before serving.

Serve and enjoy!

US Customary – Metric

Instructions

• Heat the oven to 400°F/ 200°C
• Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan.
• Add the onions and mushrooms, then fry on a high heat for another 3 mins until the onions start to brown.
• Add the garlic and cook another minute.
• Add the flour into the pan and cook, stirring, for 1 min.
• Remove the pan from the heat, gradually stir in the stock, followed by the milk, then add the chicken, salt, pepper, and and parsley. Bring to a boil, lower the heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes to thicken. Taste for seasoning and add more salt as needed.
• Spread the filling in a 10-inch (round or square) ovenproof dish and chill for 30 minutes.
• If necessary, roll out your pastry to cover the top of your pan, leaving about an inch of extra dough. Top the filling with cheddar cheese, cover with puff pastry, and press down firmly to seal and crimp the edges. Then, finish by brushing with the beaten egg.
• Prick the top of the pastry with a fork (or make slits with a knife), and then bake for 25 to 30 mins or until the pastry is risen and dark golden brown.
• Allow to rest for 10 minutes before serving.

Tips + Notes

• For even cooking, rotate the pie halfway through baking.
• To prevent soggy pastry, chill the assembled pie for 10 minutes before baking.
• Add a dash of nutmeg to the sauce for a subtle warmth.
