Chicken Pot Pie

Chicken Pot Pie

A family favorite

Pkg. of frozen vegetables or my kids love carrots so sometimes I make it with fresh cut up carrots.
1 small chopped onion
1/4 c. butter
1/3 c. flour
1/2 t. sage
1/2 t. salt
dash pepper and parsley
4 chicken breasts boiled and shredded or you can use a can of canned chicken.
3/4 c. milk
2c. Chicken Broth (you can make your own with 2 cups water and some chicken bullion)

Cook the onion and butter until tender, stir in flour, salt ,pepper and sage. Add chicken broth and milk mix well until it starts to thicken. Add vegetables and chicken and pour in to pie shell. Cook 1 hour @350. Let stand a while before serving


Pie Crust (not really a recipe but some tips)

Butter
Sifted Flour
Salt
Very cold water

I mix the butter salt and the flour with a pastry cutter. The trick is that it's not to dry with flour so add the flour slowly to the butter and don't add to much. I like it's to all stick together pretty good. I make a well with the flour and butter mixture and add very very cold water. Not to much water only a few tablespoons. Divide dough and roll out onto a floured surface.
