Chicken Broccoli Cheddar Pot Pie

Chicken Broccoli Cheddar Pot Pie

A cozy, golden baked pot pie filled with tender chicken, fresh broccoli, and a rich, creamy cheddar sauce, all tucked under a flaky crust that turns every bite into pure comfort.

  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked chicken, diced
  • 2 cups fresh broccoli florets
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 refrigerated pie crust

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F and lightly grease an oven-safe baking dish.
  2. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until soft and fragrant.
  3. Stir in the flour and cook for one minute, then slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk until smooth and thickened.
  4. Add the diced chicken, broccoli florets, salt, black pepper, and shredded cheddar cheese, stirring until the mixture is creamy and well combined.
  5. Transfer the filling into the prepared baking dish and spread evenly.
  6. Place the pie crust over the filling, seal the edges, and cut small slits on top to release steam.
  7. Bake for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  8. Let rest for a few minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Let the filling cool slightly before adding the crust for best texture.
  • Freshly shredded cheddar melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
  • Allow the pie to rest before slicing so the filling sets properly.
