Ingredients
- Butter - Adds richness and helps sauté the vegetables, bringing out their natural sweetness. You can also use avocado oil for a dairy-free option.
- Frozen Mixed Vegetables - A convenient and colorful mix of peas, carrots, corn, and green beans makes this pot pie hearty and nutritious.
- Minced Garlic - Garlic enhances the flavor and adds a delicious savory depth to the dish.
- Chopped Rotisserie Chicken - Using a rotisserie chicken saves time and adds incredible flavor. You can also use leftover turkey or cook your own chicken breasts.
- Gluten-Free Cream of Chicken Soup - I love using Pacificâs Gluten-Free Cream of Chicken Soup because it has simple, clean ingredients. Even if youâre not gluten-free, this is a much better option than traditional canned soups.
- Gluten-Free Pie Crusts - You can use store-bought gluten-free pie crusts or make your own from scratch.
- Heavy Cream or Chicken Broth (Optional) - If your filling is too thick, a splash of heavy cream or chicken broth thins out the mixture perfectly.

Instructions
- First, melt the butter in a large pot over medium-high heat and add the frozen mixed vegetables and minced garlic to the pot and stir. Sauté the veggies for 5-8 minutes until fragrant and tender.
- Meanwhile, while the vegetables cook, chop the rotisserie chicken and set it aside.
- After that, season the vegetables with salt and pepper to enhance the flavor. Now, stir in the cream of chicken soup, followed by the chopped chicken, and mix everything well. If the mixture is too thick, gradually add the heavy cream or chicken broth, stirring until well combined.
- Pie Crust Options: Option 1: Line the bottom and edges of a 1.8L baking dish or a 9x12 oval dish with a pie crust. Prick it with a fork and bake at 375°F for 10-15 minutes until slightly baked. Option 2: Simply skip the bottom crustâthis is my familyâs favorite way to enjoy it!
- Once ready, fill the baking dish with the chicken and vegetable mixture, spreading it out evenly.
- Next, break the frozen pie crust into approximately 2âx2â pieces and place them on top to cover the surface.
- Finally, bake uncovered at 350°F for 30 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Step 1: First, melt the butter in a large sauté pan or a large pot and then add the frozen mixed vegetables and the minced garlic. Next, sauté the veggies and then season the vegetables with salt and pepper.
- Step 2: Next, stir in the cream of chicken soup and the chicken to the veggie mixture. Add the heavy cream or chicken broth if needed.
- Step 3: Pie Crust Options: Option 1: Next, line the bottom and edges of a baking dish with a pie crust. Slightly bake the pie crust. Option 2: Skip the bottom crust (my familyâs favorite way to make it!). Now, fill the baking dish with the chicken and vegetable mixture. After that, put the pie crust on top of the mixture.
- Step 4: Lastly, bake the casserole uncovered.
Helpful Hint: Gluten-free crusts can be tricky to work with, so I like to break the frozen pie crust into pieces for easier handling for this Easy Rotisserie Chicken Pot Pie recipe.
