1
the first thing I do is thaw the chicken.
-
2
if have fresh chicken skip this
-
3
get 3 pots ready.
-
4
in one pot add the 2 bags of peas and carrots.
-
5
add enough water to almost cover them.
-
6
then add in 3 tablespoons of butter ( or less if you desire ).
-
7
add in onion powder, pepper, red pepper, garlic powder, and season salt.
-
8
turn heat up to medium high.
-
9
turn it low once it starts to boil.
-
10
simmer it but don't let it get mushy.
-
11
you can turn off the heat but keep a little warm.
-
12
in another pot add in 2 of the bullion cubes and sprinkle some poultry seasoning.
-
13
add in the chicken.
-
14
then add water to cover the chicken.
-
15
turn heat on and cook until the chicken is done.
-
16
while those two are cooking.
-
17
take your potatoes , peel and rinse.
-
18
slice them length wise.
-
19
then slice those in half.
-
20
then cut into chunks.
-
21
or anyway you want.
-
22
get them into a pot.
-
23
add water to cover add in a bit of pepper.
-
24
boil for about 10 to 15 minutes or less if you like them more firm
-
25
to make the crust ( my first attempt for this ) I used 2 cups of bisquick, 1 cup of milk, 2 eggs and 2 teaspoons of melted butter.
-
26
since it was to thick I added a little extra butter and milk to it.
-
27
stir very well.
-
28
this was the top crust
-
29
if using frozen pie crusts pull them out to thaw for at least 15 minutes
-
30
once the chicken is done pull it out of the pot to cool down so you can cut it into pieces
-
31
preheat your oven to 375
-
32
drain your potatoes.
-
33
drain liquid from the peas and carrots.
-
34
pull apart the chicken
-
35
in a bowl big enough to add everything start adding the peas, carrots, chicken and the cream of chicken.
-
36
stir.
-
37
if it is to thick add a little bit of milk at a time until you reach desired constancy
-
38
you can now start to fill these pies!
-
39
you can also taste and add in extra seasoning if you like.
-
40
I didn't add my potatoes to one pie so one had them and the other didn't.
-
41
after filling the pies take the bisquick mixture and carefully put on top.
-
42
take both pies and put them on a cookie sheet.
-
43
stick in the oven for 35 to 40 minutes.
-
44
keep an eye on them though so they don't burn.
-
45
pull them out when done.
-
46
let them settle for about 5 minutes or so then start cutting and making plates.
-
47
enjoy!
