Ingredients You’ll Need

For the Filling:

2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or cubed)
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
½ teaspoon garlic powder
Salt & pepper to taste
Optional: ½ cup diced mushrooms or cooked onions for extra depth

For the Crust:

2 store-bought refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade, if preferred)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Pro Tip: Using rotisserie chicken saves prep time and adds extra flavor!

Dairy-Free Swap: Use a plant-based cream of chicken alternative and almond milk.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish.
Mix the filling: In a large bowl, combine cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk, mixed vegetables, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until well combined.
Assemble the pie: Roll out one pie crust and place it in the pie dish. Pour the filling evenly over the crust.
Top it off: Lay the second crust over the filling. Crimp the edges and cut 3–4 slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Brush with egg wash.
Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Cool slightly before serving (about 5–10 minutes) — this helps the filling set!

⏱️ Shortcut: Use puff pastry on top instead of pie crust for a rustic twist.
