How to Make Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie
Step 1 | Make Homemade Chicken Soup
Simmer 2 cups of chicken broth over medium-high heat. Whisk 1 cup of broth with flour and seasonings, then slowly add to the pot, whisking until thickened.
Step 2 | Add Ingredients into Slow Cooker
Add the homemade chicken soup, chicken, veggies, and bay leaf to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 5-6 hours until the chicken is tender.
Step 3 | Bake Biscuits
About 30 minutes before serving, bake biscuits according to package instructions.
Step 4 | Shred Chicken & Add Milk
Shred the chicken with two forks, return it to the slow cooker, and stir in milk to help thicken the filling.
Step 5 | Serve
Adjust salt and pepper to taste. Ladle into bowls and top with a warm biscuit.
How to Thicken and Thin Your Pot Pie
Too Thick? Add one tablespoon of milk at a time until the desired consistency is reached.
Too Thin? Mix 1-2 tablespoons of flour with two tablespoons of milk, stir into the slow cooker, and cook on HIGH for 15 minutes to allow the flour to cook properly.
Tips
Cook on LOW – Cooking on high or longer than 6 hours can dry out the chicken.
Add milk at the end – This helps cool the filling and prevents curdling.
