Ingredients

Ingredients for the pot pie crust

1 1/2 cups cake flour, sifted
1/2 cup salted butter, cubed
4 ounces Neufchatel cheese, cubed

Ingredients for the pot pie filling

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Sea salt flakes, to taste
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 small onion, diced
4 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup green beans, sliced

1/2 cup corn kernels
1 1/2 cups pasta sauce
1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated
2/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1/2 cup Asiago cheese, grated
1/2 cup cheddar, grated

Instructions

Make the pot pie crust
Combine all of the crust ingredients in a food processor. Blend until the ingredients form a smooth dough.
Take the dough out of the bowl and shape it on a lightly floured surface. Once shaped into a flat disc, wrap it in plastic and set it aside until you need it later.
1 1/2 cups cake flour, sifted, 1/2 cup salted butter, cubed, 4 ounces Neufchatel cheese, cubed
Brown the chicken
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Season your chicken strips with some sea salt flakes and black pepper.
Add the chicken to the pan and cook it for roughly 5 minutes or until it's done.
2 teaspoons olive oil, 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, Sea salt flakes, to taste, Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Shred the chicken
Once the chicken has been cooked, pull it apart into chunks. You can decide how chunky or fine you want the shredded chicken to be.
Set aside your pulled chicken.
Make the pot pie filling
To start, heat some olive oil again in a frying pan. Add the onions and allow them to fry for 3-4 minutes or until they become translucent. Add the garlic and fry it for a minute.
Then, add the green beans, carrots, and corn kernels. Allow them to sweat for a minute or two.
Finally, add the shredded chicken, and pasta sauce. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce the heat and allow the filling to simmer for 5 minutes. Stir to prevent the ingredients from burning at the base.
2 teaspoons olive oil, 1 small onion, diced, 4 garlic cloves, minced, 1 cup green beans, sliced, 1 cup carrots, diced, 1/2 cup corn kernels, 1 1/2 cups pasta sauce
Assemble your pot pie
Preheat your oven to 360ºF (180ºC).
Place the dough on a lightly floured surface. Then, roll it into a disc the size of your pie dish or baking dish. The dough should be roughly 1/6 to 1/4 of an inch thick. Set it aside.
Fill the baking dish or pie dish with your filling. Stir in three-quarters of the cheese. Then, add the rest of the cheese as a topping.
Place your rolled-out crust over the top of the baking dish. Crimp the edges. Cut a steam hole in the top of the crust.
1 cup mozzarella cheese, grated, 2/3 cup parmesan cheese, grated, 1/2 cup Asiago cheese, grated, 1/2 cup cheddar, grated
Bake your creamy chicken pot pie
Bake the pot pie for roughly 25-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and cooked.
The exact baking time will large depend on the thickness of your crust and size of your baking dish.

Notes

You can buy a premade sheet of pie dough. Just make sure it's from a good brand and that it is big enough to fit your baking dish. The baking times and temperatures will also change depending on the package instructions.

This recipe doesn't use a cream sauce for chicken pot pie. But, you can replace the pasta sauce with a white sauce or cheese sauce if you'd like. It won't create an authentic chicken parmesan flavor, but it will still be delicious.

If you don't want to buy many different types of cheeses, you can simple get a shredded cheese blend. For this creamy parmesan chicken pot pie recipe, an Italian blend will be best.

To help get your crust golden brown, brush it with some egg wash or milk. Only do this in the last 10 minutes of baking.
