Chicken Pot Pie


HawkFire

My very favorite meal is a homemade chicken pot pie. I have not had a decent chicken pot pie for years. That was until a few weeks ago. I decided to purchase a box of the gluten free pantry FRENCH bread and Pizza Mix.. I baked it and it was so good. I had to add extra salt, though.

I was eating out with some girlfriends, coffee at our local coffee shop, and I brought along a warmed piece of my new bread with some butter and jam. I was saying how it was very dense and soft and rich tasting when my closest friend remarked that it would make an excellent dinner of gravy and turkey for my teenaged son who is always very hungry. I had just been telling her about a funny incident when he was so hungry after school that I had given up, driven him to the nearest Marie Calender's and let him order as much food as he needed to fill up. One of the meals he'd ordered was a chicken pot pie. I really wanted some.

So, after a "duh" moment... I realized I could make a chicken pot pie for myself. I'm eating my second pie right now (these are single serve bowls). I am in heaven.

Could you post your recipe for chicken pot pie. I would love to make individual ones and freeze them for the times I don't want to cook. Thanks.

Yes, please post. I would LOVE to eat some pot pie.

Ditto! I have been hungry for anything with gravy and considered trying to make meat pie type things, with pie dough wrapped all around the filling, but I think I could get the same effect with just the crust on top. Pleeeease! I'm sure I could figure out the filling, but tell us about your crust.

Oh, sure. Like I said, I found that I really enjoy the Gluten free Pantry French Bread and Pizza Crust mix. I prepare it following the bread recipe. I use Kinik all purpose flour to help handle the very gooey mixture once prepared. It's not to be rolled out. I simply take a large spoonful of the dough (it must rise for 40 minutes prior to using it) and use my fingers to smooth it out on top of my individual serving sized pies.

I use the one crust method for my pie.

Everyone has a recipe they will prefer for the contents. Mine is simple, but I really enjoy it. I found a bouillon that I like. I suggest you use your personal favorite if you want to follow my recipe. I use a veggie bouillon that is gluten free and has a lot of flavor.

I prepare boiled chicken. Pull apart the meat. I use about three cups of chicken.

I prepare two cups of bouillon. I add two cloves of minced garlic and 2 carrots, two celery stalks and broccoli to the boiling bouillon.

I put three tbs of olive oil in a deep dish frying pan. I add half of a large onion.

I drain the bouillon into a measuring cup.

I take 1 1/2 cups of my bouillon and add it to my onion, leaving behind, for now, the chunky veggies.

I reserve 1/2 a cup of bouillon and add to it 2 tbs of corn starch. Whisk. Add to your onion which should be in a deep dish frying pan as I said.

When thickened, add the veggies that were being reserved.

Next, I add the chicken. I stir all together for a few minutes.

I pour my mixture into single serve, oven safe baking dishes.

Top with the amount of dough you need to cover the mixture. It bakes very well in my oven at 350 for 30 minutes. It tastes as good as ANY pot pie I can recall from my gluten days. I am never left feeling deprived.

Prior to finding a crust that I enjoy for this pot pie, I always used this recipe over rice. It is delicious over rice. Very nice on a chilly evening.

While I typed this recipe, I was eating my pot pie. I can assure you that it is very good. It is the perfect crust, in my opinion.

mmm, this has always been one of my fave meals (we grew up on the frozen kind!!)

I was thinking...could this be premade then frozen? like the storebought ones? i'd love to do that for my days off from the kitchen :P

      It's possible he's in the early stages of celiac disease, and it has been caught before villi damage. The blood test results so far do indicate possible celiac disease, as well as his strong family history of celiac disease. If his symptoms get better on a gluten-free diet this would be another strong indication. Personally I think it's definitely better to proceed on the safe side and go gluten-free, rather than to risk severe villi damage and all that comes with it.

      For some context: I have type 1 diabetes (T1D) (since 11 years) and celiac disease(since 4 years) For about a year now, I’ve been experiencing permanent floating and undigested stools. I’ve had a pancreas elastase test done. The first result was extremely low at 44, but a second test came back at 236. My doctor said that since one result is normal, it rules out pancreatic insufficiency because, according to them, elastase levels would always stay low if that were the issue. However, could the 236 have been a false result? My doctor also thinks I don’t have pancreatic insufficiency because I’m able to gain weight. I also get hgh injections as my bone age is younger than my real age, this also contributes to weight gain, so I dont know if weight gain can rule out malabsorption. But maybe if I had real malabsorption I wouldnt gain any weight even with hgh? For celiac, I’m on a gluten-free diet, but there might b small cross-contamination from things like pepper labeled as “may contain gluten.” or sausages which dont have gluten ingredient but say may contain. My doctor said that small amounts like this wouldn’t harm me and even mentioned that an occasional small exposure to gluten may not do much damage (which seems questionable since I thought even tiny amounts could be harmful). She also said that when Im older (Im m17) I could try eating small amounts of gluten and do antibody blood tests to see if I can tolerate small amounts or not. For reference, I’m asymptomatic when it comes to celiac, so I have no idea if I’ve been “glutened” or not. My first concerning celiac blood test was semi high IgA, then 3 months later we did a check up and my IgA was high so it was confirmed celiac. Since than I’ve had celiac antibody tests done yearly to see how my diet is going, and they’ve been negative, but I’ve heard those aren’t always reliable. I’ve never had a follow-up endoscopy to confirm healing. I also always kept eating „may contain gluten“ food. (I live in Germany so I dont know if „may contain gluten“ is as risky as in the usa but I suppose both are as risky) These stool issues started around the same time I was doing excessive heavy lifting at the gym. Could stress or lifting have triggered this, or is that less likely since the symptoms persist even after I stopped lifting? Occasionally, I’ll feel very mild stomach discomfort, but it’s rare and not severe. My doctor (also a dietist) said floating, undigested stools could still be “normal,” but that doesn’t seem realistic to me. Could this be impacting my vitamin or protein absorption? I also did a fructose intolerance breath test and had a high baseline of 20 ppm, but it never increased—only decreased over time. I fasted for 12 hours and didn’t eat fructose beforehand, but my stomach didn’t feel completely empty during the test. Could this mean the test was inaccurate? For lactose intolerance, I did the breath test but only fasted 10 hours and had eaten lactose prior because I wasn’t aware of the proper diet restrictions. My results were: 14, 12, 15, 25, 35, 40, 40 ppm—which would be considered positive. But given that I didn’t fast long enough or follow the right diet, could this result be unreliable? Has anyone else dealt with similar symptoms? What ended up being the cause for you? And sorry for the long text!

      The Docs' and NP haven't committed to Celiac determination yet but say go gluten-free diet because...  And I have with improved physical results - feeling better; overall functions better, and more energy.  Still 10 pounds down in weight but I still have BMI of ~23.  It's been just over a month now gluten-free diet.  I'm fortunate I get along with diary/milk well and most other foods. I wanted ask about this site's sponsor, gliadin X.  If this is legit, seems like a good product to keep on hand. Though it says it's only a safety for incidental gluten contact - not a substitue for gluten-free diet. What's your input on this? This may be sensitive subject since they're a sponsor. I've used resources here and other sites for information, gluten-free food/product lists. So thank you for all that support. That's it for now - Stay warm...  -2F this morning in Colorado!

      I did suffer with gastric symptoms before diagnosis, but got all sorts of weird and wacky symptoms after going gluten free.   Things got much better once my antibodies fell to normal levels, but it took years (please don't panic, many people's go to normal levels relatively quickly when following a gluten-free diet). Causes of the symptoms you mention that I also experienced were iron supplements, a temporary dairy intolerance (this is common in coeliacs and should pass when your gut heals properly), and eating oats, as mentioned above.  Other symptoms I got were musculoskeletal pain after diagnosis, but again, once my coeliac blood tests were normal, I had no more pain. I did notice patterns emerging in foods that I reacted to and learned to steer clear of them, then gradually reintroduced them when my gut healed, such as soya, pure oats and dairy products.    You might like to keep a food diary.
