Provident Living Recipe

Farmhouse Chicken Pot Pie (Served at the December Relief Society meeting. Recipe compliments of Dana Dwyer.)

2 cups chicken or 2 cans of chicken 

1 TB chicken bouillon 

2/3 cup flour 

6 cups water

1/2 cup chopped carrots 

1/2 cup frozen peas 

1/4 cup onions 

1/2 tsp pepper

Pie crust pastry

Line casserole dish with pastry. Cut chicken into small pieces. Combine chicken, bouillon, flour, carrots, peas, onions, and pepper in large saucepan. Add water. Cook over medium heat until forms a smooth thick gravy. (If filling seems too soupy, thicken with cornstarch. Mix 1/3 cup cornstarch with enough water to liquefy. Pour into filling and stir until thick.) Pour into pie crust lined casserole dish. Cover with remaining pastry. Bake at 400 degrees F for 35-45 minutes until browned. Variation: Pour chicken mixture into casserole and top with biscuits.
