Oh, honey, you won’t believe the chicken pot pie I made the other day. Used them crescent rolls, you know? The kind you get in that popping can. Was a real treat, I tell ya. Easier than pie, well, easier than makin’ pie crust from scratch anyhow.
Easy Chicken Pot Pie with Crescent Rolls
This here chicken pot pie using crescent rolls is somethin’ else. Everybody loved it, even that picky eater, little Timmy. He gobbled it right up, didn’t leave a crumb. You wanna know how I did it? It ain’t no secret. Just some simple stuff I had layin’ around.
First, you gotta cook up some chicken. I just boiled a couple of breasts I had. Shredded them up real good. Then, I threw in some mixed veggies. You know, the frozen kind. Peas, carrots, corn, that kinda stuff. Easy chicken pot pie ain’t supposed to be hard work, see?
- Cooked chicken, all shredded up
- Frozen mixed vegetables, the usual kind
- Cream of chicken soup, from a can, naturally
- Crescent rolls, the star of the show
Then I got a can of them cream of chicken soup. Dumped that in with the chicken and veggies. Gave it a good stir. Salt and pepper, gotta have that. Just a pinch, though. Don’t want it too salty. You need a little bit of milk. Not too much, just enough to make it a little creamy. If it is too thick, just put in more milk, honey. And if it is too thin, just cook a bit longer. It is easy to make it right. You just keep your eyes on it.
Using Crescent Rolls for the Crust
Now, here’s the trick. You take them crescent rolls and lay ’em out on top of the chicken mix in a baking dish. I used my old casserole dish. The one I always use for potlucks. It is big enough for me. Don’t overlap ’em too much. Just enough so they touch.
Then, you pop it in the oven. Bake it till them rolls is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Oh, it smelled so good! The whole house smelled like homemade chicken pot pie. Even better than those fancy bakery ones, if I do say so myself. My family loves the smell of my cooking. It makes them feel like home, you know.
I remember one time, I tried to make a pie crust from scratch. What a mess! Flour everywhere, dough stickin’ to everything. Never again. These crescent rolls are a lifesaver. And they taste just as good, maybe even better. They got that buttery flavor, you know? Makes the whole thing just melt in your mouth.
This chicken pot pie using crescent rolls is perfect for a weeknight dinner. Quick, easy, and fills you up. Good for them cold nights, too. Warms you right up from the inside out. My family like it very much. They always ask me to make this. I think you can make it for your family, too.
Leftover Chicken Pot Pie
And if you got leftovers, even better! Just cover it up and stick it in the fridge. Tastes just as good the next day, maybe even better. Sometimes I make a big batch just so I have leftovers. It is easy to heat it up in the microwave oven.
I remember one time, my neighbor, she came over and smelled my chicken pot pie. She asked for the recipe right then and there! Said she had to make it for her family. I wrote it down for her on a piece of paper. She made it the next night, I think. Said her kids loved it, too.
