This time of year we love comfort foods. One of our favorites is chicken pot pie. I have never made it homemade before so this was fun to try. We get one from a deli that has the most amazing crust I have been trying to figure it out and finally realized it had to be a puff pastry crust. I bought mine in the freezer section of the store but you can make homemade if you choose. To start out, I roasted some chicken breast in the oven with some seasonings and chicken broth. In a saucepan I added some butter and onion and cooked until translucent. I had cooked some potatoes a head of time and added them along with a half of a bag of peas and carrots and the chicken pieces. I cooked it until softened and then added some chicken broth and half and half. I cooked this on low until slightly thickened. I poured that into a greased baking pan. I placed my thawed sheet of puff pastry on top of the mixture and cut a slit in the tops to vent. I baked until golden brown and crispy.
