Recipe Courtesy of Paula DeenServings: 4 servings
Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Difficulty: Easy
4 sheets frozen puff pastry
1 egg, beaten
4 chicken breast halves, or 2 cups leftover cooked chicken
Paula Deen Seasoned Salt
pepper
2 tablespoon cooking oil
1/3 cup melted butter
2/3 cup flour
1 quart heavy cream
1/4 cup chicken base
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/2 small yellow onion, minced
1 cup frozen green peas, cooked
1 cup cooked carrots, chopped
pinch fresh grated nutmeg (optional)
Crust:
Cut each sheet of frozen puff pastry into 1 strips, 8 inches long. On a large cookie sheet, weave strips into a lattice large enough to cover each pot pie. Beat egg and brush onto each lattice square. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes. Dough will rise and turn light golden brown. Set aside until ready to assemble pies.
Filling:
Season chicken breasts with seasoned salt and pepper. In about 2 tablespoons oil, Sautee chicken breasts until cooked, cut into chunks and set aside (you may use precooked chicken breasts). In a large saucepan melt butter and slowly add flour stirring until consistency of peanut butter, but not brown like a roux. Slowly add cream and keep stirring. Add chicken base, garlic and onion and stir until thickened. Add peas, carrots and chicken. Remove from heat. In 4 oven- proof bowls, fill with sauce and top each with one of your pre-cooked lattice squares. Bake at 350 degrees for 5 minutes until bubbly. Any remaining pie filling may be frozen.

What is "chicken base?" Broth? Stock? that concentrated stuff in a container? chicken legs? (i.e., as in the "base" on which they stand?) hahaha.....DBell540@AOL.com

I ate your Chicken Pot Pie a few years ago when my husband and I ate at your restaurant. I loved it! It was the best I've eaten. I can't wait to get another one when we visit Savannah again. We tried Harry and David's Chicken Pot Pie last night. It is made by the company that was on Oprah's favorite things list, but, don't worry....It was in NO way comparable to yours. I did not care for it at all. Keep up the great work, Paula. We love ya!!

Deeeelicious!!! My boyfriend asked me why I wouldn't just go to the grocery store and buy a frozen pot pie! After he ate this pot pie, I doubt he'll ever want a frozen one again! Great recipe!!

Gotta say, this one did not work for my family. I haave always made my pot pies from scratch including broth, crust, etc. Thought I'd try what seemed like a simpler method but it didn't go over. I am still cooking alot of your other recipes, okra & tomatoes, etc.

Hi Paula, I have made your "Amazing Chicken Pot Pie" in your latest magazine several times now! Every time is fantastic - Amazing!! Love the look, the taste and the compliments! Thanks for sharing it. Joan

Chicken Base is almost like boullion but its more of paste texture. Restaurants use it for soups and sauces and things to give it chicken flavor! You can probably find it in the supermarket!

I don't mean to be stupid, but what is "Chicken Base"? Thanks!!

I ate this pot pie at your restaurant this past fall. I loved it and I'm so happy to have the recipe now!!!
By Martha Bordelon on February 09, 2011
why can't you just put the puff pastry on top of the chicken then bake it all at the same time? why does it have to be baked ahead?
