FANTASTIC! I made this for family/friends last night and got GREAT reviews. One friend who is a known pot pie lover proclaimed this to be the best pot pie he has ever had. I didn't have frozen veggies so used fresh green beans, onion, carrots & celery. I served with salad & fresh dinner rolls. Easy to make, easy to eat and makes great leftovers.

The recipe took quite a long time to make, but it was so worth it. I forgot the sherry. This was my first pot pie ever. I added aome cheese because I thought it would be dry. The cheese was great (swiss) but it would have been perfect without it. Next time I'll remember the sherry. Oh, so good!

This was great! I made my own crust (top and bottom) and put it in a small casserole dish rather than a pie plate. I used fat free evaporated milk and canned veggies instead of frozen. Oh and I didn't have celery or fresh parsley. My husband said I can make it anytime (he just would have preferred less onions).

Wow.. this is really the best chicken potpie. I followed everything the recipe called for except I sauteed the celery and onions in my drippings from the chicken I roasted..(I used the Juicy Roasted Chicken recipe which I really think made a HUGE difference.. the chicken was phenomenal).. I ended up doubling everything up and freezing the other two pies.. I gave the one pie to my sister-in-law and brother who just had a baby...can't wait to eat em again!

So delicious! Everyone said this was the best pot pie they've had...and I agree..it was so thick and creamy! I used white wine instead of sherry since it's all I had. I stayed 95% true to the recipe. I roasted two chicken breasts on the bone and then cut them up. Since that was only half the amount of chicken the recipe called for I added some small diced potatoes. I poured it all into one 9x9 square glass dish. No other changes, turned out so incredible.

This is my favorite meal to give to friends when a new baby comes or someone could use an easy dinner. What's best is that it makes 2 so I can keep one and give one away. I've made it several times now and do not vary at all from the recipe. I may try adding the bottom crust sometime, but I do love it as is. Great recipe!

Simply the best chicken potpie I have tasted and my family loves it. This is my second time making it and decided to use Sherry Cooking Wine, definitely tasted a lot better than White Wine. I would recommend a bottom and a top crust, but cook the bottom crust for about 5 minutes that way your bottom crust will be more crispy. Also, add a 15 oz can of diced potatoes and cut the frozen vegetables to 1 cup of carrots or corn and 1 cup of peas (if you like them) and I mixed everything in one pot this time and still turned out GREAT!!! Too many dishes last time. Thanks for a great recipe.

I really enjoyed this recipe! It was so simple to make! It taste better and more hearty than store bought! I included some of the chicken skin, particularly the brown, crispy ones, into the mix for more flavor. I also added a can of no salt added sweet whole kernel corn for more crunch. I substituted the evaporated milk with lowfat 2% evaporated milk. It still tasted delicious and creamy. To save more dishes to wash, I made the white sauce in one saucepan on the stovetop starting with the broth and milk, then added all the rest in order. It came out fine and tasty. Thanks for the recipe!!!

This is absolutely a great recipe. It lays out the steps of making a roux and when to add fresh veggies or frozen. I doubled the veggies at the begining adding 4 carrots, onion, celery and 3 cloves minced garlic. I also sauted 4 cups of mushrooms until the liquid had evaporated and set them aside to add with the peas. I also added red pepper flakes for some heat to the sauce. Lastly to lighten it up, I used fat free evaporate milk and low sodium broth. I made this in a casserole dish and used Bisquick for the crust. Followed the recipe on the box, 2cups bisquick, 1 cup milk and 1 egg. After 10 min in the oven I brushed it with egg white wash. It turned out beautiful and brown. I let is rest for almost an hour. It was perfect to cut into, maintained its shape. What awesome comfort food!

I was looking for a recipe for chicken potpie that was not made with canned soup. I was so please when I ran across this recipe - IT IS PERFECT. I made just as stated with the exception of adding two minced cloves of garlic. To be honest, I think the garlic was not a good addition and I will not include it next time I make it. (This coming from a garlic lover!) I could taste the sherry in this dish and it just made over-the-top good.

This was quick and very tasty. I didn't have onions or celery so I skipped that step all together. I also did not have any wine and it still was great. Used a top and bottom crust. Will make again, soon!

This is a wonderful recipe, I served it when company came over and was surprised when we didn't have any leftovers!!! I roasted my own chicken and I also made my own crusts, which added to the already great taste of the pies. I used frozen baby sweet peas and fresh baby carrots (which I diced pretty small), which gave the meal a naturally rich flavor. Although it took me a bit longer to put together because I did my own chicken and crusts, it's the perfect Sunday dinner!

I couldn't believe how good this turned out. I joined the Allrecipes club just so I could rate this recipe. I was never a fan of peas and carrots, but I used baby sweet peas (which were great!), and instead of carrots I used corn and whole button mushrooms. I also added a little nutmeg, and I used 2 crusts for each pie (1 for top & 1 for bottom) instead of only 1 crust. The cream sauce tastes wonderful, and when the pie is cut, the sauce does not run out like with frozen pot pies, so it cuts very nicely. I also boiled boneless chicken breasts instead of using rotisserie chicken and it came out great! Enjoy! It really tastes great!!! I will make it again & again!!!

Wow! Worth the time & effort. Probably my favorite pot pie recipe. Thanks for a great one! I didn't have pie crusts so I substituted boxed corn muffin mix with a bit more milk than called for & thyme. Great complement!

Wow- this is excellent. My family devoured it- and there is another one sitting in the freezer! The only thing that I changed was that I used a mix of carrots, peas, corn and green beans. Also, I skipped the celery and onion. This is a keeper!

Wonderful and easy. I put a top crust on the pie and sauteed the chicken. I did not have enough filling for two pies. Great leftovers.
