Chicken Pot Pie with Crescent Roll Crust
Description
The recipe starts by cooking diced vegetables—onion, celery, carrots, and peas—with garlic to develop a tender base. Cooked shredded chicken is added, followed by flour to thicken, and then chicken broth. The filling is seasoned with thyme, parsley, seasoned salt, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, and pepper. Heavy cream is stirred in to create a rich, smooth sauce.
The filling is poured into a greased baking dish and covered with an 8-ounce tube of crescent roll dough spread evenly on top. Baking at 375°F finishes cooking the filling and browns the crust in about 12-15 minutes, resulting in a warm, hearty, and creamy pot pie with a flaky pastry crust that contrasts with the savory filling.
This dish makes a comforting main course suitable for a family meal and pairs well with simple side salads or steamed vegetables.
Ingredients
Filling:
- 3 Tablespoons butter
- 1 onion chopped, medium
- 2 celery chopped, stalks
- 2 carrot chopped, medium
- 1/2 cup peas frozen
- 4 garlic minced, cloves
- 2 cups chicken cooked and shredded, or turkey
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 teaspoon thyme dried
- 2 teaspoons parsley dried
- 1 teaspoon seasoned salt
- 1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- black pepper to taste
- 3/4 cup heavy cream or half and half
- 1 crescent rolls 8 oz tube
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a large baking pan (either a deep dish pie plate or an 11x7 inch pan) with cooking spray and set aside.
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, and peas, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5-7 minutes. Add in the garlic and cook for 1 minute more until nice and fragrant. Add the chicken and stir everything well.
- Sprinkle the flour over the top of the chicken and vegetables and stir until everything is evenly coated. Cook for 2 more minutes, then add the chicken broth to the pan. Stir constantly for 2-3 more minutes until the mixture starts to thicken. Season with the thyme, parsley, seasoned salt, poultry seasoning, garlic powder, and some pepper to taste. Stir in the heavy cream and cook for 2-3 more minutes until nice and thick. Pour into the prepared baking pan.
- Spread the crescent rolls over the top of the filling. Place in the oven and bake for 12-15 minutes until crescent roll dough is golden brown on top and cooked through. Let it cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
