Chicken pot pie is a traditional comfort food dish that originates from England. It's a hearty and satisfying meal that is perfect for chilly weather. The dish is made with chicken, vegetables, and a flaky biscuit, crescent roll, or pastry crust. Chicken pot pie is usually served in individual portions but can also be made as one large pie.

While this dish is usually baked in the oven, this recipe is the perfect meal to make when you're short on time. The slow cooker does all the work for you, so all you have to do is sit back and relax. This dish is also great for leftovers because it reheats well!

Chicken pot pie is also a versatile dish that can be made with different types of vegetables. You can also use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken to make this recipe even easier!

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Chicken Breasts - Boneless, skinless chicken breasts are used to add hearty, satisfying protein to the dish.
  • Low Sodium Chicken Broth - Helps create the creamy base of chicken and vegetables while adding additional nutrients and flavor.
  • Seasonings - A mixture of salt, pepper, dried thyme, rosemary, and onion powder helps enhance the natural flavors and adds a layer of herb flavor to the dish.
  • Cream of Chicken Soup - One can of cream of chicken soup helps thicken the sauce and add more creaminess and flavor to the dish.
  • Yukon Gold Potatoes - Potatoes add a creamy and starchy component to the dish. They also help thicken the sauce as they cook.

How To Make Chicken Pot Pie In A Crock Pot

Prepare the chicken: Pat the chicken breast dry with a paper towel and remove any excess fat. Place the chicken at the bottom of your slow cooker, then pour the chicken broth on top. Sprinkle in the dried seasonings.

Assemble the slow cooker chicken pie filling: Pour the cream of chicken soup over top of the chicken, broth, and spices, then add the potatoes, garlic, and frozen mixed vegetables.

Cover and cook: Place the lid on top and cook on LOW for 6-8 hours or HIGH for 3-4 hours or until the chicken is fully cooked through.

Shred and top: Carefully remove the chicken and shred it with two forks. Add it back to the slow cooker along with the sour cream. Mix until well combined.

Add biscuits: Bake the biscuits according to the instructions on the package. Place them on top of the chicken mixture or plate and serve with biscuits on top. Serve while hot and enjoy!

Recipe Tips

  • If you don’t have low-sodium chicken broth, you can use regular chicken broth and reduce the amount of salt used in the recipe.
  • When dicing the potatoes, make sure they are all roughly the same size to ensure even cooking.
  • You can also use frozen diced potatoes instead of Yukon gold potatoes.
  • I recommend using a frozen vegetable mix that has peas, carrots, corn, and green beans for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don’t have fresh garlic, you can use garlic powder instead.
  • The chicken is fully cooked through when the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F.

Variations

  • Prepare crockpot chicken pot pie with Bisquick by crafting your own biscuits using a Bisquick mix.
  • To make this recipe gluten-free, you can use a gluten-free biscuit mix or make your own biscuits using a gluten-free flour blend.
  • Add other types of vegetables to the mix, including diced celery, green beans, or mushrooms.
  • If you want a more cheesy flavor, you can add shredded cheddar cheese to the mixture before serving.
  • Instead of chicken breasts, try using boneless, skinless chicken thighs.
  • Take a shortcut and use pre-cooked shredded chicken. Lower the cooking time to HIGH for just two hours or on LOW for four hours.
  • Try out other toppings, such as puff pastry or pie crust in place of the biscuits.

Storing & Freezing

Storing: Cooled crock pot chicken pot leftovers can be stored in individual airtight containers in the fridge for up to five days. You will want to store the biscuits separately.

Freezing: You can also freeze this dish for later by storing it in a freezer-safe baking dish for up to three months. When you’re ready to eat, thaw it overnight in the fridge, then reheat it on the stove or microwave until warmed.

Reheating: To reheat, simply place individual servings in the microwave and heat until warmed through. You can also reheat on the stove over low heat until warmed through.

FAQ

You can cook it on high, but it is preferred to cook on low as it will prevent the chicken from drying out.

Yes, you can! Just add an extra hour or two to the cooking time.

You can assemble the ingredients for the chicken pot pie right in the crock pot and keep it in your fridge for 48 hours before cooking.

    So I thought the sour cream was left off the recipe on accident and I added it in with the other stuff to cook is it going to mess it up?

    Reply

    • Ryan Allen

      It won't mess it up. But because it is a dairy product it can separate during the cooking process so it is not as creamy.

        UPDATE! I used my instant pot and set it for manual pressure, high for 30 minutes. It came out pretty good! I may try 25 minutes or layer it differently next time as the chicken seared a bit on the bottom and the veggies were a little soft. Overall, it was a success though!
