Recipe Tips

  • If you don’t feel like making the pastry, then the chicken pot pie filling is good enough to have by itself or with a side dish such as cauliflower rice.
  • You can cook the chicken pot pie filling ahead of time and keep it in the fridge for a couple of days. This method is perfect if you know you’re going to be running low on time.
  • Feel free to swap the chicken breasts for chicken thigh. Either cut of chicken will work fine.
