More About Chicken Pot Pie Chicken pot pie is comfort food at its best. It's the perfect vehicle for leftover roast or grilled chicken and vegetables mixed with gravy or sauce. Where one can get into trouble is the crust. Typically, high-fat pie dough or puffed pastry crusts are used, which can cause problems for heartburn sufferers. This recipe is a lighter version. Pot Pie History Meat pot pies go back to the Roman Empire where they were served at lavish banquets, sometimes with live birds under the crust (remember "four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie"?). 16th-century English gentry continued the custom of meat pies made with pork, lamb, game, and birds. This meat pie craze spread to the New World with early settlers who eventually took them to the West where they have become firmly entrenched in the U.S. culinary repertoire. Some say English pasties, favored by Cornish tin miners, is actually a portable version of a classic pot pie. You decide. Rate this Recipe You've already rated this recipe. Thanks for your rating!
