1
Note: To prepare cooked chicken, place 3 or 4 chicken breasts in a stock pot and fill the pan halfway with water.
-
2
Bring the water to a boil so its nice and hot and the chicken starts cooking.
-
3
Reduce the heat to a simmer.
-
4
Once it is simmering, let chicken cook until done, about 2025 minutes based on the size of the breasts.
-
5
When the chicken is done, remove chicken and let cool slightly.
-
6
Cut chicken into 1/2-inch chunks, or shred with two forks.
-

Youll need about 2 1/2 cups cooked and cubed chicken.

Heat oven to 425 degrees F. Prepare the pastry (you can use your own recipe, or I buy a 2-crust package of frozen pie dough).
-
17
Pour the chicken mixture in one pie shell.
-
18
Cut shapes in the other pie shell and invert over the filled pie.

Then turn the edges of both pie shells to seal.
