Notes
*See step-by-step images above for how to assemble pot pie. Adding slits in the pie crust helps steam release while baking and keeps the crust flaky, there is no need to egg wash the pie crust before baking.
*Use leftover chicken: Rotisserie or pre-cooked chicken works great and saves time.
*Store-bought Alfredo Sauce: Homemade sauce gives richer flavor, but your favorite jarred version will work in a pinch, just taste and season accordingly.
*Make it in a skillet or pie dish: Use a deep oven-safe skillet or transfer the filling to a deep pie dish or baking dish before topping and baking. Make sure you skillet is large even to hold everything!
