I don’t know about you but when the weather stinks and it’s cold outside all I want to do is stay in my pajamas and crank up the heat and cook something delicious. Garden chores can wait for another day if you know what I mean. 😉
This recipe for cast iron skillet chicken pie is so over the top delicious, you may just have to make two of them.
Here’s the recipe, I hope you like it, we sure do.
Ingredients
1/3 cup butter
1/4 cup flour
1 cup chicken stock
2 cups mixed frozen vegetables
2 cups chicken, cooked and shredded {I use Zaycon Chicken}
1 teaspoon drued thyme
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 egg for egg wash
1 pie crust {Homemade Pie Crust Recipe}
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Melt the butter in your cast iron skillet by popping it in the oven for a minute or two. Then whisk the flour and butter together. Slowly add chicken stock and salt and pepper until you have a nice little gravy. Add cooked chicken and vegetables, stir.
Next roll out your pie crust and then place it over the top of the pot pie filling. Brush with an egg wash and bake at 350 for 45 minutes or until the juices are bubbling and the crust is evenly browned. Serve warm.

My son gave me this book and a enamel coated dutch oven for Christmas. I have not made anything from the book yet but plan on it this weekend. Happy to hear the Chicken Pot Pie is good.

Excellent! Can’t wait to make it! The blackberry cast iron skillet pie was AMAZING 🙂
Barbara says
I bought that cookbook about two weeks ago, and it’s fantastic! I make individual pot pies, both chicken and beef with mushrooms, in individual servings that I vacuum and freeze for an “instant” meal that’s so much better than takeout when I have a hectic or other day that cooking is difficult.
