How to Make Auntie Em S Easy Chicken Pot Pie

  4. Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the bottom pie crust.
  5. Carefully place the top pie crust over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal.
  6. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
