In my opinion, what makes a good homemade chicken pot pie recipe is a savory and creamy filling and a buttery, flaky crust. The best chicken pot pie recipe is one that I can throw together in a short amount of time but that will still taste like a made-from-scratch traditional pot pie with tender chicken and perfectly done vegetables. I love that this recipe delivers on both of those criteria! Having dinner on the table in a snap makes all the difference in the world.
