The Best Chicken Pot Pie Ever

This is Tasty’s version of the ultimate chicken pot pie. A creamy chicken gravy made with aromatics and vegetables is baked between two extra-crispy layers of homemade pie crust made with premium butter. We believe the key to amazing pot pie is to make everything from scratch. Yes, that means roasting your own chicken and making your own chicken stock and pie dough. Trust us, this is worth the work.
