    super easy

    All your winter dreams come true right here with this Chicken Pot Pie Casserole. We got 14 inches of snow this last week .. needless to say comfort food is on repeat at our house. This recipe should really be considered two in one, you’ve got casserole but take the recipe for the chicken alone and make it for meal prep to go with salads, sandwiches or in wraps.

    Great macros, great flavor and reheats fabulously.
    Enjoy and let me know how you like it!!

    Directions

    1.

    For the chicken

    Add chicken breasts to a pot of boiling water with a pinch of salt. Boil until done and no longer pink on the inside, approximately 20 minutes. When the chicken is done, remove from the water and shred with a fork. Pour out the water from the pot and return the shredded chicken to the empty pot. Add all seasonings and stir together well to coat the chicken.
    You can prep your chicken before and leave in the fridge until you're ready to make the casserole or move directly onto the next steps.

    Add butter to a pan over medium and melt. Once melted add onions and garlic, cook and stir until onions are translucent. Add flour and 2 tbsp. broth and stir until onions are well coated. Slowly add milk and broth and stir. Add salt and pepper, stir everything together and simmer until the sauce thickens. The consistency should be similar to a potato soup.

    Notes

    Not sure what to do with the extra rolls? Cut a hotdog in half and make two pigs in a blanket for your kids. Alternatively see note below for nutrition facts using all 8. Or cook them on their own and have one with eggs and sausage for breakfast .. or just toss them.

      I made this the other night for the first time. It was so good and my in laws agreed. I’d also held up nicely as leftovers!

      I’m using cooked chicken breast from a big batch I made earlier — can you let me know how many grams of cooked chicken I should use in the recipe? Thanks!

        I use 1.5 lbs of raw chicken which would be approx. 25% less in weight for cooked chicken.

      Yes, this feature needs to be turned off to avoid confusion.

      Did you update this recipe recently? I made it 2 weeks ago but now the recommended seasonings from the chicken are not listed.

      I made this for dinner, my 6 year old absolutely loved it! I had all of the seasonings and most of the ingredients already so it was very quick and easy.
