Potatoes – These add texture to the chicken pot pie and absorb the gravy.
Peas – These add sweetness and a pop of texture.
Corn – Frozen corn makes this an accessible recipe all year long.
Chicken Stock – Either homemade or store bought will work. This is the base of the gravy.

How to Make Gluten and Dairy Free Easy Chicken Pot Pie

Get out your favorite pie pan and preheat the oven. In just a few quick and easy steps your house will be perfumed with the ultimate comfort food.

Time needed: 1 hour

Skip the frozen pot pies. Using a few grocery store short cuts this creamy, flaky, and delicious dinner will be beckoning your family to the table.

Pregame
Preheat your oven to 425 degrees. Prepare your pie crust according to the package directions if using a mix. If using a frozen pie crust allow it to defrost according to the package directions.
Peas and Carrots
Melt your Dairy Free butter in a large stock pot. Add your celery and carrots, allowing them to cook for 5 minutes. Mix together your cornstarch and chicken stock in a small bowl to form a slurry. Pour into the stock pot. Add the remaining ingredients and allow the mixture to cook until it thickens.
In Crust We Trust
Pour the chicken pot pie mixture into the prepared pie shell. Top with the second pie shell and crimp the edges either with a fork or your fingers to seal. Cut a couple of vents in the top so the steam can escape as it bakes.
Bake
Allow the chicken pot pie to bake for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Serve
Let the pot pie cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

Top Tip for Gluten and Dairy Free Easy Chicken Pot Pie

Dress up your pie crust and give it a little extra texture and color. Just before baking brush your chicken pot pie with an egg wash and sprinkle salt over top. This will give it a glossy and golden appearance and the crunch and flavor of the salt.
