I am a huge fan of pot pies. They are just such
comfort food and I love the homey feel you get when you eat one.. The flaky
crust and creamy filling. It just makes me feel warm and fuzzy!
What I don’t like about pot pies, is the amount of effort it takes to make them from scratch. Two crust traditional pot pies are a lot of work. So on behalf of Foster Farms I thought I’d share this easy recipe for a single version with a crust made with baking mix.
And to switch it up a little, I decided to add some southwest style
veggies with corn, beans, peppers and onions for a different than typical
flavor. 
Southwest Style Chicken Pot Pie
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup baking mix
1/4 cup chopped onions
1/2 teaspon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup frozen southwestern veggies (beans, corn,
peppers)
1 1/4 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 cup cooked chicken (cubed)
I used Foster Farms Simply Raised Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts. It is antibiotic free, American Humane
Certified and locally raised on farms right here in California. They even
label it ‘local’ in the grocery store. That isn’t true for all the other
brands of chicken.
Plus it is delivered to stores within 48 hours.
No cross country trucking or shipping! So you know it is fresh!
I roasted 2 breasts in the oven at 350 with a little
southwest seasoning mix. Mine took about 30 minutes to reach an internal
temperature of 165, but cooking times may vary. I let the chicken cool
and chopped it up.
Next I worked on the filling.
Melt the butter in the sauce pan and soften the
onions. Then add baking mix and salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat
mixing constantly until it bubbles. Remove from heat and slowing stir in
chicken broth until sauce thickens. Lastly, add veggies and chopped
chicken.
Pour filling mixture into cooking spray coated baking
pan or pie plate.
Next you need to prep the top crust.
Crust:
1/2 Cup Baking Mix
1/3 Cup Milk
1 Tbsp. Butter
Spread it on with a spatula until the entire top is
coated. Bake for at least 25 minutes or until crust is baked though and
golden.
Allow to cool at least 10 minutes before serving.
It is great with a side of chopped tomatoes or
salsa. A great easy spin on pot pie,
made with local chicken and a southwest flair!
