Ingredients for chicken pot pie in the crock pot

  • Chicken breasts frozen (no need to thaw?
  • Cream of Chicken Soup
  • Milk
  • Onion
  • Potatoes, peeled and diced
  • Frozen mixed vegetables (the ones with the frozen peas)
  • Celery
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Garlic Powder
  • Poultry Seasoning
  • Buttermilk Biscuits

This slow cooker chicken pot pie recipe does not require overly complicated ingredients.  I love simple recipes and this one is no different.  I promise, you won’t have to sacrifice any flavor either!

How to make Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie:

First place everything in the crock pot except the biscuits.

Then cover and cook on low all day in your favorite crock pot (usually for 8-10 hours).  You can also cook on high for 4-6 hours if you need dinner on the table quicker.

Next remove the chicken and shred.  Add the chop chicken back into the crock pot and stir to combine this chicken with the other ingredients.

Towards the end of the cook time of this great recipe, bake the biscuits and serve a biscuit on top of each bowl when serving.  I like using the refrigerated biscuits as it’s easier than having to create a pie crust!  I’m all about saving time in the kitchen.

It is delicious and very easy!

This recipe is so easy to make but simply tastes delicious. It has the comfort food of a chicken pot pie without all the work of actually making a pie.

Variations

You can use your favorite type of biscuits for the topping.  I usually use the large ones that are on sale.  I recommend that you use your favorite kind!

You can make crock pot chicken pot pie bisquick by making your own biscuits from a biquick mix.

Also, if you love creamy chicken pot pie, you can mix in heavy cream instead of the milk.  I would not add it in the crock pot until the last hour of the cook time.

Another quick variation to this recipe is to use vegetables that you love.  If you do not love carrots, celery, corn or peas then you can definitely leave them out and add in your favorite instead.  I have made this recipe with green beans before and it was delicious!

Use chicken thighs – Chicken chicken thighs would also be delicious in this recipe.

How to thicken chicken pot pie in crock pot

If your chicken pot pie recipe is not as thick as you would prefer after the cooking time, you can easily thicken the sauce right in your crock pot.

My favorite way to thicken sauces in my recipes is by creating a corn starch slurry and adding it to my crock pot.

To make this cornstarch slurry, I mix ¼ cup of corn starch with 1 cup of cold water or chicken broth until the corn starch is completely dissolved.  Then I add this mixture to the crock pot and cook on high for 30 minutes until the sauce is the consistency that I want for this recipe.

You can also follow this same process with flour instead of corn starch if you prefer.

Why does my Chicken Pot Pie get Watery:

If you chicken mixture is bit watery it is possible that it not done cooking. The chicken pot pie ingredients need time to set up and create a thick filling. If you find that your is getting to dark or burning, place a piece of foil over the top.

Can I use Fresh Vegetables?

Yes, you can use fresh vegetables. This is a great recipe to add any leftover vegetables that you need to use. We normally use frozen veggies, but fresh work just as great.

Can I use Leftover Rotisserie Chicken?

Yes, you can use leftover rotisserie chicken. Use 3 cups of leftover rotisserie and add to the crock pot. This recipe is great to use any type of leftover chicken.

How to freeze chicken pot pie

This recipe is VERY freezer friendly.

To make freezer crock pot chicken pot pie, all you have to do is toss all the ingredients except the potatoes in a freezer bag. (potatoes do not freeze well uncooked). Then freeze the pot pie.

Next I just toss the freezer bag of ingredients into a crockpot, add your potatoes and cook like normal.

If you want to freeze the potatoes, then substitute diced hash browns for the potatoes and you will still get the same delicious meal and it will be frozen ready to cook.

Freezing it ahead of time really saves you money in the long run. All you have to do is toss it in the crockpot in the morning. Done!

    Made this last night. Used half bag more of veggys than recommended, and also used one of canned
    white meat chicken. very little milk and 2 small potatoes. One stalk chopped fine of celery and added an extra can of creme of mushroom soup in addition to the creme of chicken. My wife and I just fell in love with this and so easy to make. Will make again soon. topped with some store bought biscuits and ate the whole thing. Wonderful recipe.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Thank you so much for sharing Rich and for the positive review – You made my day! I’m so glad your wife and you enjoy this recipe!

      1. rich jennings says:

        5 stars
        Thanks for the reply. I am retired law enforcement here in Washington after 41 years. I now do most of the cooking and love my two slo cookers as I am pretty busy doing other things, so slo cooker recipes is what I love and this chicken pot thing was one of the best. I also make a wonderful meatloaf in the crockpot. You do a great service for guys like me. Thanks so much .

  2. Dollie says:

    I didn’t thaw out my chicken when I started the recipe. So it made it watery cause of that and the frozen veggies. I cooked it till the chicken was done but I needed up having to add heavy whipping cream to it and another can of cream of chicken. Hopefully it tastes better. I havent tried it yet.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Dollie – I hope it turned out well! Yes, the frozen items will add in more liquid and I’m finding that chicken is releasing more liquid when it’s cooked now than I have ever noticed before. Next time if it’s too watery, you can always switch the instant pot to the sauté setting and cook off the excess liquid. One of the many reasons why I love cooking in the instant pot!

      1. Melanie says:

        When mine was a bit watery, I stirred in some corn starch while I had the chicken out to shred it and that thickened it right up without changing the flavour at all

      2. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

        Melanie – Thanks for sharing your feedback. I’m glad you enjoyed the flavor!

  3. Carlie Hunt says:

    I prefer dark meat. Can it be made with chicken thighs?

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Hey Carlie – Absolutely! Feel free to use dark meat. Let me know how it turns out.

  4. Jenn says:

    4 stars
    Overall a good recipe! I do think the nutritional value should be done with out the biscuit added in as that can vary. It needs a little more seasoning but we were out of celery.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Thank you for sharing Jenn and thank you for the positive review!

  5. Derek says:

    3 stars
    Very good, just missing something on the backend

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Hey Derek. Thanks for your feedback and for giving it a try.

  6. Mary Z says:

    5 stars
    Made this recipe and was delicious! The tweaks I did was I added 2 cans of soup and 1/2 cup of milk and some creole seasoning, with a little cream and cooked the chicken beforehand….Came out awesome!!!!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yum! Your tweaks sounds amazing especially the Creole seasoning! I bet that was delicious in this recipe! Thank you so much for sharing and for the positive review.

  7. Donna says:

    Mine did t turn out as creamy as yours looks. What did I do wrong? I followed the recipe only adding two 10 oz pkgs of frozen veggies as I didn’t have 16 oz?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Donna – Each crock pot cooks a bit differently. Yours might have cooked hotter and caused some of the liquid to evaporate off after cooking. I would recommend if this happens again, to stir in more broth to make it creamy again before serving.

  8. Lorraine Haley says:

    I noticed you can use hash brown frozen potatoes if you freeze the whole recipe, but how much of the frozen hahs brown potatoes will equal the 4 fresh potatoes.

    1. Susan says:

      I used the frozen hash browns for the first time. I used 4 cups, which might be a bit too much, but I’ll let you know, cooking it is cooking now. I’ll see how it turns out and comment again later.

      1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

        Susan – Can’t wait to hear how it turned out. I hope you love it!

  9. Jackie J. says:

    My milk curdled at 2 hours on high. What went wrong? It smelt so good and I was bummed I couldn’t serve it.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Oh no! I’m so sorry! It sounds like your crock pot runs hot and likely got too hot during the cooking time. I would recommend cooking low next time since your crock pot runs hotter.

  10. Sylvia Kay Mullen says:

    Thank you for reminding me how to make Chicken pot pie.

    1. Amy says:

      Can the cooked filling be put in pie crusts and baked?

  11. Gloria says:

    What is the serving size?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      It’s hard to put an exact size on the serving as each batch is different. The recipe serves 8, so a serving is 1/8 of the entire recipe.

  12. Kathy says:

    Made this a couple days ago and it is delicious. Just wonderful flavor! This is a keeper for me with plenty to add to the freezer. Thank you, Carrie.

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Hey Kathy! Thanks for leaving a comment. We are so glad it turned out wonderful!

  13. Barbara Johnson says:

    5 stars
    I love chicken and dumplings. And this is delicious. Will definitely make again!

  14. Susan says:

    Can you put biscuits on top and continue to “bake off
    ” in crockpot?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Susan – Yes, you can. I recommend cutting the biscuits into smaller pieces so that they cook quicker and evenly. I do find that when cooking the biscuits in the crock pot, they have more of a dumpling texture versus a biscuit texture but if you’re fine with that, then definitely go for it!

      1. Loren says:

        At what point can you add the biscuits when they are cut up like this?

      2. Carrie Barnard says:

        Yum! Add them to the crock pot at the end of the cooking time. Cook on high for 60-90 minutes until the biscuits are cooked through (stir occasionally during this cook time).

  15. Stephanie says:

    4 stars
    Flavour is great, but for mine 1 cup of milk and 1 can of cream of chicken soup wasn’t enough liquid for the potatoes to soften so I had to add chicken broth, it was a bit on the dry side until I added some broth. Maybe my potatoes were too big though. Besides that it’s good 🙂

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Thanks for sharing Stephanie!

  16. Vanessa says:

    Just threw everything in the crockpot. I used fresh chicken since frozen chicken has an odd taste. I’m sure that means that I should adjust the time…to what do you suggest? Also, I used 4 russet potatoes since 4 golden potatoes wasn’t specified in your blog. This is my first time making this and fear my meal will not be up to par.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Vanessa – Fresh chicken won’t take as long to cook in the crock pot. Cook on low for 5-7 hours or on high for 2.5-3.5 hours until the chicken and potatoes are tender. Also, I used Russet potatoes in this recipe and it’s delicious so I think it will turn out great! I hope you enjoy it!

  17. Olivia says:

    Would this recipe work in a 4.5qt crock pot? Looks amazing!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Olivia – I haven’t tried that yet so I’m not sure. I made it in a 6 quart crock pot. You want to make sure that the ingredients all fit into the crock pot and it’s not more than 3/4 of the way full to ensure that the meal gets cooked all the way through. If you try it out, let me know if it works! Thank you.

  18. Emily says:

    if i use rotisserie chicken how long do i cook everything else for? new to the kitchen & can’t wait to try it!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Emily – I would recommend cooking all the other ingredients on low for 5-6 hours or on high for 2.5-3 hours and then stir in the cooked shredded rotisserie chicken for the last hour of the cooking time to heat it through. I hope you enjoy this recipe!

  19. Rose Gutierrez says:

    I absolutely love your recipes. I watched you & your sister’s cooking as often as I can.
    How do I get the 31 days of crockpot cooking.
    That’s something that I would love to have.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Rose – Thank you so much for following along and watching us cook and create recipes! I’m so glad you’re enjoying them. You can find our digital Crocktober cookbook here which includes the 31 days of crock pot recipes. I hope you enjoy it!

  20. Kirsten Nyboer says:

    Is it possible to bag up everything (except the milk, peeled potatoes, and cream of soup). I’m hoping to place all the ingredients I can in a Ziploc, then dump into the crockpot when I need it later in the week. I would leave the milk out the Ziploc bag, but could I put in the potatoes and cream of soup?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Kirsten – Yes, this can work. I don’t add peeled and diced potatoes as they will get brown as they are stored in the refrigerator or freezer but all the other ingredients could work stored in a bag and then throwing it in the crock pot the day you’re ready to enjoy it!

    2. Lori Milligan says:

      This is in the crockpot now. Do you know the calories/nutrition without the biscuits?

      1. Carrie Barnard says:

        Lori – The biscuits are approximately 200 calories per serving so this meal would be 259 calories per serving without the biscuit. To get all the updated nutritional information I would recommend an app like my fitness pal as our nutritional information includes the biscuit for this meal. Thanks!

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Sebbe – Thank you SO much!

  22. Sebbe says:

    I made this today and my family and I love it! It’s definitely going in the rotation. I used thighs instead of breasts and it came out great. I was concerned that the sauce looked a little thin while it was cooking but once the chicken was cooked and shredded it soaked up the sauce scrumptiously. Thanks for a super easy delicious recipe.

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Sebbe – I’m so glad everyone loved it. Thank you so much for leaving a comment.

  23. Louise says:

    Don’t have any can soup! Can I just make a white sauce?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Louise – I haven’t tested that yet but I think it would work great. Let me know how it turns out!

  24. Karen With Kaden says:

    Looks great and super easy!!! Will try when weather is cooler!!! More simple recipes would be wonderful please!!!

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Karen- Can’t wait for you to try it! Thank you so much for leaving a comment.

  25. Linda Violette says:

    My family loves this, can you freeze it?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yes, the leftovers freeze great for up to 3-6 months. When reheating, defrost out overnight in the refrigerator and reheat on the stove top or in the oven until heated through. I don’t recommend freezing this one raw as raw potatoes usually turn black when I freeze them.

  26. George says:

    5 stars
    Really good and easy to make, will be making this again

  27. Ruthie Young Easterling says:

    5 stars
    So good!

    1. Kathy - Eating on a Dime Team says:

      Ruthie – Yay! So glad you enjoyed it.

  28. Krystal Crowl says:

    No chicken broth?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      No, no chicken broth is needed. The chicken releases a lot of liquid while it cooks which is great for this meal.

      1. Krystal Crowl says:

        I don’t know why my comment attached to somebody else but thank you

      2. Carrie Barnard says:

        Oh I’m not sure either! Thanks for letting me know and I’ll look into it.

    Everyone here loved it. Tip: double the cream of chicken and the milk.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Woohoo! I’m so glad everyone enjoyed it Joanne. Thank you for sharing and thank you so much for the positive review!

  38. Kimberly Pasanio says:

    Can I use frozen chicken?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yes, frozen chicken can be used in this recipe. You will need to cook it a bit longer so cook more to the longer end of the cooking time until the chicken shreds easily. I hope you enjoy this recipe!

  39. Lauren T says:

    I tried this and the milk curdled 🙁

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that Lauren. It sounds like your crock pot likely runs hotter than ours. I recommend cooking it all on low next time or mixing in the milk just for the last 30-40 minutes of the cook time to prevent it from curdling.

  40. Joni Towne says:

    Good Morning! I forgot to grab frozen bag of veggies. I do have a steam bag of veggies would that work? That’s all I’m missing and was even at the store 2xs yesterday lol. Could you please help me, I’ve been looking forward to this for 2 days

  41. Kyle D says:

    This was AMAZING! So simple to make. I used chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts, used fresh vegetables diced instead of the bagged frozen made a lactose free cream of chicken and used lactose free milk. It was soooo good.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Thank you for sharing your changes to this recipe. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

  42. Robyn Bode says:

    Instructions were very easy. Not too many ingredients so that keeps the cost down. My family loved it??

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      I’m so glad you and your family loved it! Thank you for the positive review!

  43. LENORE says:

    CARRIE, HOW MANY FOLKS DO YOU THINK ONE CROCKPOT WILL SERVE?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      This recipe serves 6.

  44. James H says:

    I am going to try this recipe tomorrow. Can anyone give me advice if I want to prepare everything today, put it in the refrigerator and then turn it on in the morning? You think it’s okay ?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yes, you can put everything in the crock pot and refrigerate it the night before. Just make sure to let it sit at room temperature and come to room temperature before cooking to ensure that everything cooks evenly. I hope you enjoy this recipe!

  45. Debbie says:

    I love this recipe. I’ve made it many times and it always comes out great.

    Keep up the good work.

    I wasn’t sure if my husband would like this or not but he loved it!! I didn’t change anything from your recipe and it was so good and this was perfect for me and my son because we are both diabetics so we have to watch what we eat. I Will be making this again!!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      So glad you loved it! Thank you for leaving a review.

    My pot pie mix was so watery I had to thicken it. I rechecked the recipe and used the correct amount of liquid. Even let the frozen veggies thaw ahappened. Only thin I did differently wascto cube the chichen instead of having to pull it out and shred it. What could have happened?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      The chicken just released more water than what ours did.

  49. Kaylin says:

    5 stars
    Such a tasty and easy recipe! I made a few subs and additions based off comments and what I had one hand.

    I used one can of cream of chicken with herbs and one can of regular cream of chicken. I like a super creamy chicken pot pie so I felt this yielded exactly what I was aiming for!

    I also substituted 1 cup milk for 1 cup oatmilk (simply because I did not have regular milk on hand). It worked great! Can’t taste a difference. I also left out the potatoes because I didn’t have any. I used rather large chicken breasts so it all evened out so that the soup did not feel thin or lacking. I also did not have any grands on hand so I used some croissants and it was a pleasant, flaky surprise! 🙂

    Overall, super tasty and so easy! I love that you can kind of set it and forget it, save shredding the chicken 🙂
    Thanks for sharing!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

    My husband and I made this together, and it was delicious! It microwaves well. Definitely a keeper! Next time we make this, I might add another can of soup, to make it more biscuit-dipping friendly.

  52. Amanda says:

    5 stars
    Yummy! Easy and good. I homemade the cream of chicken soup and doubled that to make this recipe thicker and richer. I will make this again!

  53. Leslie says:

    Looking forward to trying this recipe and other chicken recipes you may have available on this site. I will be bookmarking this page. I will definately come back and tell you how it went. Thanks so much for sharing this.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      I hope you enjoy them Leslie! I’m so glad you found my site!

  54. Larry Elrod says:

    Will the cook time be the same if I dice the chicken like you do in the chicken and rice recipe?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      I would reduce the cook time by 30-60 minutes if using diced chicken. I hope you enjoy this recipe!

  55. Theresa says:

    5 stars
    I used 2 cans of cream of chicken soup and heavy whipping cream instead of milk. Came out delicious. Nice and thick and creamy

  56. Beth W says:

    How long do I cook the chicken if I’m using fresh chicken? Thank You!

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      If using fresh chicken, cook toward the shorter end of the cook time until the chicken is cooked through.

  57. Valerie says:

    I’m really excited to try this recipe! I was wondering if you thought substituting canned vegetables for the frozen would work as I have quite a few cans of mixed canned vegetables to work through.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Valarie, yes – I think canned vegetables will work instead of frozen in this recipe.

  58. Rylee says:

    I made this recipe and the dairy ended up breaking, is there anyway I can fix it, a lot at least make sure it doesn’t happen next time?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      If that happens just whisk it back together.

    This is a great base recipe. Of course all things are to be seasoned to *your* liking in your own kitchen, so I did just that. Added more salt, and used .5 tsp each of rosemary, thyme & turmeric in place of poultry seasoning, like my typical oven-made recipe. –There was another recipe I’d used last time that called for 3-4 frozen chicken breasts, 2 cans of cream of, and only a half cup milk, and no offense of course, I liked it a bit better. Only because I didn’t end up having to use a cornstarch slurry like I did for this recipe to thicken it up so it wasn’t so soupy. But, again, it turned out great, and I truly appreciate this as a reference, (I couldn’t find the other recipe and couldn’t bring myself to wing it from memory lol.)

  60. Lorraine says:

    I made this wonderful crock pot chicken, and enjoyed every mouthful. Thank you for the scrumptious recipe.

  61. Jan says:

    Any suggestions on why potatoes never get done in my crockpot? I cut them up small and they are still hard, but everything else cooks fine.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear that. It’s hard to know the issue without seeing it. It could be the potatoes (older and too starchy), a faulty crock pot or make sure that the potatoes are submerged in liquid as liquid helps ensure that the potatoes are cooked evenly.

  62. Niko says:

    Made this in my slow cooker for 6 hours 3 large chicken breasts with all the exact ingredients and after I opened the lid the chicken flaked like it should and shredded with fork and stored it and that was all tastes delicious.

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thanks for sharing!

  63. Annie says:

    This is really good! I made this tonight for my family and they happily had seconds! The only thing that bothers me about recipes online like this is the prep time is only if everything is pre-cut and measured before. It took me an hour to clean and cut everything .

    I used 4 red potatoes (as I didn’t have any others) and there was more than enough. I put double the carrots and celery, 1/2 onion instead of a whole, and used 2 lbs of chicken tenders. It came out more chicken than anything else, next time I’d only use 1.5 lbs! The only thing that bothered me was that the base was watery…I thought about thickening it with some cornstarch, but I left it alone. I might rinse the frozen veggies or use fresh next time because I think the water came from those.

    All in all a very yummy meal! Thank you! I love crockpot meals!!

  64. Melissa Crotty says:

    So the only liquid added is the milk or heavy cream?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yes that is correct. The chicken will naturally release liquid as it cooks as well.

  65. Spacetiger says:

    This is a good base. I had to add a lot more seasoning. I’m also in Louisiana and we are not shy with seasonings. Once I tweaked the recipe the family loved it.

    Love this recipe, however the milk keeps curdling what am I doing wrong?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      I’m not sure. I haven’t had that problem. You can wait and add the milk in the last hour to prevent that from happening.

    I made the x2 recipe for a work potluck and it was a hit!! So easy and so delicious! I will make this again for sure!

  69. Rich Youpa says:

    I made this today. Loved the recipe and prepped it the day before as stated in the dorections, and put everything except the potatoes in a large bag in the freezer. Peeled and cut up the potatoes and put them in the fridge overnight and threw it all in the crockpot the next morning. I substituted the chicken breast for chicken thighs and cut them up into bite sized pieces so I didn’t have to shred it in the crockpot. I used 1 cup of heavy whipping cream an hour before it was finished and everyone loved it. I will definitely be making this again!

  70. Brittany says:

    5 stars
    We loved it! So delicious! One question, can we freeze it AFTER it’s cooked? I doubled the recipe, as I do with pretty much every recipe and freeze the rest… Wondering if this one will freeze well. I feel that it will, just want to know! Thank you so much for an awesome recipe!

  71. Veronica says:

    Looks great, can’t wait to make it! I’ve made it before just on the stove and then put in ramekins with pie crust. Wondering how long you’d recommend doing that for this recipe. I like the crock pot as a less laborious way to make the filling, but I do prefer the classic pie crust.

  72. Cheryl Fink says:

    Substitution for canned cream of chicken??

    Question when using the rotisserie chicken, do I put it in at the end or beggining – like I would do with raw chicken?

    Thanks

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      You can do it either. I would throw it in in the beginning so the flavors will combine, but you would want to lessen the the cooktime by cutting it in half. You could even do the recipe on the stove top with rotisserie chicken.

  76. Megan says:

    Can this be made with chicken that is already thawed out? Would cooking time be different?

    1. Carrie Barnard says:

      Yes thawed chicken works great too. You could reduce the cooking time by an hour if cooking on low.

  77. Rhonda Silvers says:

    Made this for my granddaughter’s family. Loved it! My daughter asked to have this as her birthday dinner with her family. Great recipe and very easy!

  78. Rosie says:

    It was very good. My husband loved it he had a second bowl. Thanks for the refresher for using corn starch.

  101. tena says:

    Are you supposed to add water too? I keep seeing that but don’t see water in the recipe?

    1. Carrie says:

      I do not add water to this recipe. The chicken releases water as it cooks and this is enough for this recipe. Thank you!

  102. Lauren says:

    I love chicken pot pie, especially from scratch, but it’s such a pain to make. I would love to find a quick and easy crock pot version. I am very interested in trying this – but, the crust is my favorite part!!! Do you think I could add just a pre-made crust on top of the mix toward the latter part of the cooking time???

  103. JC says:

    Making as we speak.. only difference I made is frozen veggies putting in in last hour, to avoid soggy veggies.. otherwise cannot wait for 6pm ??

    1. Carrie says:

      Woohoo! I hope you enjoyed it!

  104. K says:

    4 stars
    This turned out really great! Although I added an additional cup of milk and an extra can of cream of chicken because without it it was super dry. I also added extra veggie cause we can’t get enough of that and I had to use up my rotisserie chicken leftovers. Definitely will make again!

  105. Ellen Sanford says:

    Can you use chicken thighs????

    1. Carrie says:

      Definitely! I think chicken thighs would be great in this recipe.

    Made this yesterday and decided to leave out the celery and potatoes and added in frozen cauliflower instead. Went with onion powder in place of chopped onions. Used 3 frozen chicken breasts but doubled the frozen veggies (tossed in some fresh chopped carrots as well) and cream of chicken soup, plus the milk also (used part unsweetened almond milk and part heavy cream since that’s what I had on hand). Cooked on high for about 5 hours. Came out great! 🙂

  107. Natalya says:

    Great Recipe. My family really enjoyed it.

    1. Carrie says:

      I’m glad your family loved it!

  108. McKenna says:

    I’m making this tomorrow and saw someone said they substitute chicken broth instead of water… amateur chef over here. Where does it say to add water?!

  109. Randy says:

    im am using a can of condensed soup does the 1 cup of milk cover the the liquids or should i add the extra can of water or milk the soup calls for

  110. Jillian says:

    Do you use russet potatoes

  111. Michael says:

    I have some shredded rotisserie chicken, how long should I cook this?

  113. Angelica says:

    This came out so good! but instead of adding potatoes (I actually forgot them) I had mashed potatoes on the side. Delicious!

  114. Leann says:

    Will a 4.5 quart crockpot work for this exact recipe?

    1. Carrie says:

      Yes, it would still work great. Thank you!

  115. Sarah asif says:

    your recipe are absolutely delicious. I love your work. Thanks For Sharing.

    1. Carrie says:

      Thank you Sarah!

  116. Melanie Topazio says:

    I am making this now. I am very excited to try it. Am I supposed to add the can of water to the cream of chicken soup as the can suggests and also a cup of milk? Or just the soup and a cup of milk without the water? I added the can of water but now I’m not sure if I should still add the cup of milk or not.

  117. Sherrie L Flavin says:

    How many ounces/pounds for the chicken breast?

    I made this and substituted Cream of Celery instead of Cream of Chicken soup. Also used Chicken Base instead of Poultry Seasoning as a thickener. Family I cook for, loved it. Going to make it again, but this time I’m actually making flakey crust and putting them in seperate little pie tins! GREAT RECIPE

  119. Donna King says:

    Can you cook this in the instapot and if so, how long?

  120. Sandy says:

    I like the way you post nutrition facts. My question is if there are 189 calories per serving in the crockpot chicken pot pie, how much is a serving? Thank you.

    1. Carrie says:

      This full recipe is 8 servings so 1/8 f the entire recipe would be a serving size. It’s hard to put an exact amount on the serving as each batch is a little bit different. Thank you!

  121. Jo says:

    Did not add potatoes. Thickened with instant potatoes at the end.
    Gives potato flavor and nice consistency.

  122. Beth says:

    Do you add the chicken raw??

    1. Carrie says:

      Yes you do.

  123. Rhonda says:

    Does rhe chicken go in first or last?

    I don’t plan on adding the potatoes.

    1. Carrie says:

      Thanks Sandy, so glad your sister liked it, enjoy

  126. Crystal says:

    Oh my… this recipe is amazing!!! I realized when I went to bake the biscuits, I didn’t have any! First I thought about adding some cooked pasta into it but my little one was hungry already. I ran to my pantry and searched for some kind of carb to add to this (I didn’t add the potatoes) and found a box of Ritz crackers. Wow!!! The crispy buttery crackers made it feel like it had an actually crust! It took the already amazing meal to the next level I recommend trying it next time!! Thank you for this one!!

  127. Jaimie says:

    I’m making this for dinner tonight. Curious as you don’t specify tho, do you put crescent rolls on top of it in crockpot or on the side when served? I was just gonna cook them in oven. But then I see the drop biscuits so not sure..

    1. Carrie says:

      Sorry- We just serve the crescent rolls with the dinner – we just place ours on top. My kid though like them on the side so they can scoop up their chicken pot pie with their biscuits. 🙂

  128. Katlin says:

    Do you use a large or small can of cream of chicken?

    1. Carrie says:

      Small can. 🙂

  129. christian says:

    I followed this recipe word for word and after making it I suggest not to put the chicken in until the potatoes have been in for a while. Otherwise, you’ll have raw potatoes (even after 8 hours of cooking) and dry chicken.

    1. Carrie says:

      Oh I’m sorry – if you make sure you dice up the potatoes, they cook up nicely.

  130. Karen says:

    I am going to make this. I can avoid the crust of the pie and choose the veggies to add which will help me with my diabetic diet. I had never thought about making just the middle of the pie and crockpot cooking is even easier. Thank you so much for posting this recipe!

  131. Lizzie Mills says:

    5 stars
    WOW! I bought a big package of boneless skinless chicken thighs last week, and a lovely new programmable crock pot. Then I realized that I didn’t like any of the recipes I had for crock pot chicken. I was SO delighted when this recipe came across my newsfeed on Facebook! I’m going to try it as written, but I’m also going to try a version with rice instead of potatoes. I also think you utterly, totally ROCK for sharing links to various crock pots. And liners? Sweetie, I didn’t even know such things existed, and cleaning the crock pot is the only thing I dislike about having one (arthritic hands make lifting the heavy crock both painful and tricky). I’m ordering some liners today. Thank you! You ROCK!

    1. Carrie says:

      Thanks so much Lizzie. Make sure you come back and let us know how it tastes with rice. I can’t wait to hear. Oh… and the crock pot liners are awesome! 🙂

  132. Katie says:

    Love this recipe! Very easy, cooks well over a long period of time. I was studying (aka cramming!) for finals all day and needed something I could fix in the morning for dinner. I didn’t have cream of chicken on hand so I used cream of mushroom instead with a full can of milk, no water, plus added a tbsp sour cream for a slightly tart flavor (my mom did this for her chicken pot pie filling). I added 1/4 cup white rice flour (gluten free family) to help thicken it even more. I used fresh veggies (potatoes, carrots, celery, onion) and they got so soft and flavorful that my husband ate them right up (he’s a meat and potato guy). I made gluten free bisquits on the side. Amazing combo! Thanks for the idea 🙂 I am terrible with gluten free pie crust but missed that home cooked soul food meal, and this was just as satisfying.

    1. Carrie says:

      I love that idea!

    Made this for the second time today! My husband and two girls (14 & 6) love this recipe! Yum! Yum! I was especially glad I threw it together this morning before leaving for work since we only had 30 mins after work before the next activity. So easy & delicious!

  134. Justina says:

    My family absolutly loves this. It costs me way more then $5 but its still a Semi cheap meal.

    1. Carrie says:

      I’m glad you liked it. Of course, I used coupons to help get my cost doen.

  135. shelly says:

    I made this last year and am making it again tomorrow, hands down a favorite and the leftovers are great too!

    1. Carrie says:

      I’m so glad you loved it!

  136. Ashleigh Varn says:

    I don’t have any biscuits on hand, so can I use bisquick to drop in when it’s almost done? I haven’t experimented with this and wanted to know if anyone has tried it. Not sure if they will cook correctly. Thanks=)

    1. Carrie says:

      Yes, I would think that would be perfect to try. Come back and let us know how it turns out.

  137. Melissa Clarke says:

    Does the chicken have to be frozen?

    1. Carrie says:

      No it doesn’t. I just do that for convenience. You can probably cut an hour off the cooking time if your chicken is thawed. Thanks Melissa!

  138. April says:

    Excited to make this tonight! How many people do you think this recipe feeds??

    1. Carrie says:

      I would say about 4- 6 people. I have 4 young children and it feeds them, mom, and dad.

  139. Laura says:

    I made this a week ago! It was amazingly easy and so yummy! Instead of the biscuits I tried a more traditional route. When the inside of the pie (what was in the crock) was finished cooking I poured it into a greased cast iron skillet (you could use a baking dish), placed the pie crust on top, painted egg whites on to the crust, and baked at the recommended temperature; until brown. It was perfect and no one would have guessed how easy it was to make! I am making this for my freezer exchange group tomorrow!
    Thanks!

    1. Carrie says:

      oh Laura, I’m going to have to try that too. That sounds delicious!

  140. Gaylin says:

    I found this on Pinterest and gave it a try – it turned out awesome! Thank you! I plan on exploring your blog for other great ideas 🙂

    1. Carrie says:

      Thanks Gaylin! I hope you stick around for a bit.

  141. Meggles says:

    To make this insanely easy meal even easier, I tossed in a big of the Ore Ida steam and mash potatoes-frozen. Came out great. No need to peel potatoes!

    1. Carrie says:

      That is a great idea! Thanks for sharing. I’ll have to try that.

  142. pearl says:

    I’am just now making this Delicious looking recipe. .. how many hours if I put it on “high” ?

    1. Carrie says:

      I would do 3-4 hours. Thanks!

  143. Ivy says:

    Made this last night, soooo good! I used chicken broth instead of water and it adds an extra savory flavor. I put it in the crockpot around 2:30 p.m. during my lunch break at home and kept it on high… boyfriend came home before me around 5:30 p.m. and said it was practically done, turned it down to the “keep warm” button for another 25 mins, and it was ready for dinner by the time I got back home. New staple favorite of ours, thanks of sharing this!

  144. Rachel says:

    Do you cut up the chicken? Thanks! Looks great.

    1. Carrie says:

      I don’t. I actually shred it after it is cooked and then mix it back in.

  145. salley says:

    I made this yesterday. My teenage sons and I loved it! They asked me to make it again soon….

    1. Carrie says:

      YAY! I’m so happy Salley!

  146. Jennifer says:

    Hi, you said to cook it all day, about how many hours is that?

    1. Carrie says:

      6- 8 hours on low. THanks Jennifer!

  147. Tonya Smith says:

    Once I removed the cooked chicken breasts, I thickened it a bit with corn starch. Then added a splash of sour cream and mustard. Chopped chicken and added it back in. Yummy!!

    1. Carrie says:

      Oh that sounds like some great additions. Thanks so much for sharing.

  148. Elaine says:

    Made this per recipe and it is very soupy…this seems to happen when I make creamy crockpot recipes. Any suggestions? (It smells great btw!)

    1. Carrie says:

      Hmm… mine tends to not be very soup. I would first eliminate any extra water and then if that doesn’t work, I would use a bigger crockpot. I hope that helps!

  149. Bria says:

    Would canned vegetables work? I have everything I need to make this if they would and it looks awesome! Do you think canned veggies might get too mushy? If so, could they be added later? 🙂

    1. Carrie says:

      I think that should work too. I just normally use frozen since they are cheaper. 😉

  150. Rebecca says:

    This was absolutely delicious! I also added a can of cream of mushroom soup and a full can of milk and full can of water. I wanted it less thick, more like a soup. Sooooo good and flavorful! Definitely a new favorite!

    1. Carrie says:

      Oh those are great ideas! I’ll have to try those too!

  151. Kristine says:

    I want to make this tomorrow for my husband who loves chicken pot pies and just had surgery on his ankle. But howuch of the garlic salt and poultry seasoning do you add?

    1. Carrie says:

      I don’t really measure. You only need about a teaspoon of each. I just eyeball it. I hope you love it!

  152. Carrie says:

    I’m so glad you liked it!

  153. Julie says:
