Instructions
Start by cooking your chicken until fully done, then chop it into bite-sized pieces so it mixes easily throughout the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, chicken broth, cream of mushroom soup, drained mixed vegetables, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together until well combined and evenly coated.
Pour the chicken mixture into a lightly greased 9×13 baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer so it cooks evenly.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, and self-rising flour until smooth. The mixture will be thick, but make sure there are no lumps.
Slowly pour or spoon the flour mixture evenly over the chicken filling. Do not stir, as the topping will spread and form a crust as it bakes.
Place the dish in a preheated 350°F oven and bake for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
Remove the pot pie from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to thicken and set properly.
Notes
Recipe TipsPlace the baking dish on a baking sheet before putting it into the oven. The baking sheet will catch all spillovers and make getting in and out of the oven easier. I would much rather clean a baking sheet than clean the bottom of my oven. Been there and done that!Pour or spoon the flour mixture slowly and evenly over the top of the pot pie. Do not stir. This will make the topping for the pie. As it cooks, it will rise to the top.Let it rest before serving so the filling thickens properly.
