Step 1

Melt butter over medium-low heat in a sauce pan.

Lower heat to medium-low; cook until thickened, about 5 minutes, whisking continually.

Delicious and really easy to put together. Added some mushrooms and some diced potatoes along with the peas. I would have preferred to use carrots, but DH is not fond of them. Loved the sauce and I'll certainly make this wonderful comfort dish again.

The sauce is incredible! I used mushrooms and onions not peas and carrots, and put toasted sesame seeds on crust before baking. Did half recipe and made two individual pot pies in ramekins. The sauce is absolutely perfect!

This chicken pot pie is just excellant ! I had a lot of bits and pieces of veggies left in the fridge so instead of frozen (except for the peas) i parboiled some carrots, celery, rutabega, onion, fennel and jalapeno and added the frozen peas at the last moment. turned out wonderful and sooo tasty. but the sauce is really what makes this savoury pie so delicious!! I guess in the end i had more veggies than i should have and ended up with more filling than would fit in the pie plate, so i made two small pot pies and covered them with the pastry cut from the edges of the big one, hahaha some for the freezer. Thanks for posting, we loved it.
