How to Make Easy Homemade Chicken Pot Pies
For efficiency, we create this recipe in two parts: the filling, and the pastry. To make the filling:
- Cook Half The Vegetables: In a large saucepan, saute the chopped onion in butter. Add the carrot and celery, and allow them to cook and soften for a few minutes.
- Thicken The Sauce: To thicken the mixture, add the seasonings and flour. You’ll know it’s done when it resembles a paste-like texture. Once ready, slowly add the milk, then chicken stock.
- Complete The Filling: To finish it off, add in the rest of your vegetables and chicken, and stir well to combine the entire mixture.
You’ll have time while the filling is cooking to prepare your puff pastry:
- Slice Into Squares: Once thawed, slice one piece of puff pastry into squares using a knife or cookie cutter. Place on a baking sheet with parchment paper and brush each side with the egg wash.
- Bake: Bake the pastry pieces in an oven heated to 400ºF and according to the package instructions.
I’m saving you time by simply scooping the filling right into your bowl, and popping the dough squares right in. Simple, easy, done.

Meal Prepping and Storing
A bowl of these Quick and Easy Homemade Chicken Pot Pies with Puff Pastry are best enjoyed hot and fresh, but they’re also great when meal prepping. Once the filling is ready, allow it to cool completely. Once cooled, add it to an airtight container and refrigerate.
Keep the baked puff pastry pieces separate until you’re ready to eat. This will prevent them from turning to mush in the filling. Both the filling and pastry should last in the fridge for up to a week.

Sooo delicious! I used purple carrots (that’s what I had on hand) and it turned it a funky color. But it still tastes amazing! This was my first time ever having a “pot pie”. Family favorite for sure.
