Broccoli Cheddar Chicken Pot Pie.

This is the broccoli cheddar chicken pot pie that we all love! The filling is cozy and loaded with melty cheddar, chicken and a bunch of veggies while the topping is a flaky puff pastry. It’s so good and easy to make!

If you’re looking for cozy, you’ve come to the right place!

This broccoli cheddar chicken pot pie is filled with melty cheddar, toasty broccoli, tender chicken and all sorts of veggies. It’s topped with a buttery, flaky puff pastry crust and is a huge favorite in our house. 

To say it tastes amazing would be an understatement!

This is a combo of two family favorites:

chicken pot pie and broccoli cheddar soup. 

I have been making Eddie chicken pot pie with puff pastry crust for over 15 years. It’s one of his favorite meals EVER. And It’s often a birthday meal or some sort of special meal request too! It’s such a warm, cozy dish that is the ultimate comfort food.

My mom would make chicken pot pie for us once or twice a year as kids and it was just SO good. I loved those days! 

This is just like the classic chicken pot pie I make, with just two simple adjustments. I do not add potatoes into this – the broccoli adds more than enough veg! And I add some cheese into the filling so it gets all melty with that wonderful cheddar flavor. 

Even with the filling being silky and creamy and so incredible, the topping will ALWAYS be my favorite part. I can never get enough puff pastry!

It’s so easy to use for a pot pie, especially when you’re making one in a 9×13 dish. I simply lay a piece on top, add a few slits for ventilation and brush with an egg wash. My favorite puff pastry brands to use are the ones that come in one long sheet. They are refrigerated and NOT frozen. The brands I try to find are jus rol and wewalka. 

You can use the frozen variety, but they tend to have the perforations already cut and do not sit on top as nicely. My suggestion would be to let it thaw and try to roll it out a bit before placing it on top of the pot pie. 

In this case, I had an extra piece of puff pastry and cut some pieces out with my kids’ little cookie cutters! Not a necessity but adds a little something!  (more…)
