How to Make Tex Mex Chicken Pot Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, salsa, cheese, mixed vegetables, green chilies (if using), onion, cilantro, eggs, chicken broth, chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.
  3. Roll out one pie crust and gently place it in a deep-dish pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges.
  4. Pour the chicken mixture into the pie crust.
  5. Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling. Crimp the edges to seal, and cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. If the crust starts to brown too quickly, cover the edges loosely with foil.
  7. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Garnish with sour cream and guacamole, if desired.
