Zubereitung von Miss Cecilia's Chicken Pot Pie

Cut 1.5 lbs bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts into 1-inch pieces.
Place chicken in a 3-quart saucepan and cover with 2 cups boiling water.
Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and cook until chicken is tender (about 20-25 minutes). Remove chicken from pot; set aside and shred.
Prepare pie crust (see recipe notes) using slightly less shortening than recipe instructs. Alternatively, use 1 (16.3 ounce) can of refrigerated biscuits.
Divide dough into two equal portions. Roll out one portion thinly and line a 2-quart baking dish.
Reserve some dough scraps to create decorative strips; trim excess dough from edges.
Arrange half of the shredded chicken in the baking dish.
Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
Top chicken with pastry strips, creating a lattice effect or covering completely. Repeat layers with remaining chicken.
Pour 1 cup milk and 1/4 cup reserved chicken broth into the baking dish.
Roll out the second portion of dough; dot with 2 tablespoons of cold butter.
Fold dough in half, then roll again to distribute butter. Repeat once more. Roll out thinly.
Cut several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape. Cover the pie.
Crimp edges to seal; bake in a preheated 400°F (200°C) oven until crust is golden brown (about 30-35 minutes).
**Variation (Biscuit Topping):** Omit pastry. Arrange chicken in baking dish. Add seasoning, milk, and stock. Top with 1 (16.3 ounce) can of refrigerated biscuits, baked according to package directions.
Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
