Description
One-pot crustless chicken pot pie is so easy to make! It combines simple veggies, spices, and rotisserie chicken in a creamy and flavorful sauce.
Ingredients
- 2 Tbsp. olive oil
- 2 Tbsp. butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 medium carrots, diced
- 2 celery ribs, diced
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tsp. Italian seasoning
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 2/3 cup milk, regular whole milk
- 3 cups shredded cooked chicken, rotisserie or roast your own
- 1/2 cup frozen peas, do not thaw out
- Fresh chopped parsley, to taste
- Kosher salt and fresh black pepper
Instructions
- In a dutch oven or a large deep sauté pan, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add onions, carrots, and celery with a pinch of salt. Cook until tender, about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Stir in garlic and Italian seasoning, and cook for about 30 seconds or until fragrant while stirring non-stop. Add flour and cook for about 1 minute, while stirring the veggies around.
- Add chicken broth while stirring and scraping to loosen browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add milk. Season with salt and generously with black pepper, to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 3 minutes. It will thicken.
- Stir in chicken and peas. Simmer for about 7-10 minutes until all of the vegetables are tender. Stir in parsley and serve.
Notes
- Chicken: This is a great recipe to use up leftover cooked chicken too. I have a variety of chicken recipes on my site that make great leftovers, such as Roasted Lemon Rosemary Chicken or Easy Rosted Herb Chicken. I recommend dark meat for this recipe.
- To Thin Out: If the mixture is too thick after you add the chicken and peas, add a splash or two of chicken broth to thin out the sauce.
- Leftovers: Leftover chicken pot pie can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days in an airtight container.

Hi! I'm Katya -- a former corporate paralegal turned full-time recipe developer and blogger behind Little Broken. Here you'll find family-friendly and seasonal recipes made from real ingredients.
We tried this last night and it was amazing! Followed the recipe to a tee (minus the parsley) and it’s bursting with flavour. Would definitely recommend!
★★★★★
I used homemade chicken broth to cut down on the sodium & fresh vegetables instead of frozen. The recipe turned out great, I froze some of it for another dinner. Am retired and living in Thailand, and I miss my American food sometimes. Also trying to lose weight & make a lifestyle change in my eating habits. Thanks for you recipe. Patrick
Looks delicious. Can it be frozen?
★★★★★
I think it’ll freeze okay. It might be a little thick when you reheat it though.
Sounds great, but although you give the portion size, you don’t tell us how MANY servings. Frustrating cuz I need to make for a crowd and I don’t know how many batches.
The serving amount is included in the recipe card. It serves 4-5.
Good consistency and good vegetables. The one thing I would change is the Italian season. It doesn’t give you the traditional chicken pot pie flavour
★★
This was so easy and so delicious. The only change I made was to also add frozen sweet corn when I added the peas. I don’t have whole milk in the house so I used 1/3 c skim milk and 1/3 c light cream. But I wanted it a little thinner in consistency so I added more chicken broth and light cream – at least another 1 c in total. I served it with a honey butter biscuit and it was a wonderful comfort meal.
★★★★★
That sounds like a delicious meal! Thank you for your feedback.
I cannot have regular milk, do you have any suggestions for substitutes? Almond Milk?
For the creamiest consistency, you can sub with coconut milk (canned) if you don’t mind the slight taste of it or any other non-dairy milk such as almond or oat, it might be not as creamy.
So, so, so delicious! It was a hit with kids too!! I know it’s crustless but for the kids I served it over a biscuit and they loved it! Will be adding this to our dinner staples!
★★★★★
We love doing that too! Thank you for your feedback. So glad you enjoyed it.
If you use almond flour, split milk cashew and whole it makes it keto friendly

Super easy to make and great way to use up the leftovers in the fridge!( shhh- don’t tell my family.) I added a handful of real Italian sausage along with half of the prescribed chicken (leftovers) and seasonings. Then I threw in a bag of frozen mixed veggies. Love the thick consistency. Yum-delicious!
This recipe is amazing on its own! Definitely a new favorite at my house. The next day, I took the leftovers, made a bit more sauce and added cooked egg noodles to make “chicken pot pie pasta.”
★★★★★
Recent pre-diabetic. Second time making this recipe. It is delicious and easy for me to assemble! Thanks for posting!
Thank you Beth! So glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome. Topped this with potato to make a Sheppard’s Pot Pie ????
★★★★★
The instructions were easy to follow and it turned out really delicious.! I did end up adding 1/3 cup more chicken stock to thin it out it a bit. This recipe is definitely a keeper.
★★★★★
Delicious. I used arrowroot to thicken instead of flour. It turned out great.
★★★★★
Turned out great. It was super yummy!
★★★★★
Used the last of the frozen mixed vegetables and gluten free flour. It’s delicious! The longer you cook it on low heat, the better! Thank you!
★★★★★
Great recipe I added potatoes and took out peas, we detest them lol. Smelled so so good and tasted fabulous. Did thin the mix a little with more broth and milk.
