Making a Gluten Free Chicken Pot Pie
There are 3 main stages to assembly for this pie: Crust, filling, and baking.
Start with your pie crust. If you need a delicious allergy friendly pie crust, I gotcha! This one comes together in about 10 minutes in a food processor or bowl and you don’t have to chill it before rolling it out. That’s a win-win in my dinner book. If you want, feel free to use a purchased pie crust to save even more time. Just make sure it is safe for you to enjoy!
Next comes the filling. If you are using leftover chicken, simple shred and set aside. If you need to make some chicken for this meal, place your chicken (fresh or frozen) into a pot of water and boil until done. The time will depend on how much chicken you are making.
In a large sauté pan over a medium flame, add your onions and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add your chicken (or vegetable) broth to the pan to deglaze. Add carrots, sweet potatoes, peas, herbs and spices. Let cook for another 15 or so minutes, or until you can push a fork through a carrot.
Now add the liquid to make the sauce that makes this chicken pot pie so good! In a measuring cup, combine your milk of choice with the gluten free flour blend and give it a good mix. Add this to the pan and mix everything really well. The filling should come together in about 5 minutes!
Finally, the baking. After the filling is made, roll out your pie crust and place in a baking dish of your choice. Fill with the filling. Cover with your second layer of pie crust. Brush with egg wash, or milk of choice, to help develop a golden color.
Bake in the oven for about 40-45 minutes. Let rest for 10 minutes before serving!
Allergy Variations on a Chicken Pot Pie
One of the biggest questions about chickens revolve around egg allergies. If you are allergic to eggs, yes, you can eat chicken. The egg allergy is related to the egg protein which is absent in the chicken.
To replace the milk, use your favorite non-dairy milk of choice. Oat milk and almond milk would work great in this recipe. To replace the butter, you can use your favorite butter alternative, or even something like canola or olive oil to sauté your onion.
If you can eat wheat, feel free to swap out this crust for your personal favorite. Just make sure to add the thyme and parsley into your crust as it makes it extra special!
Final note about cooking allergy friendly. Make sure that your broth is safe for you to eat. Some contain gluten, soy, or dairy. Always check the label on your stock or any thing you eat to make sure it is safe!
