Grandma's Eyeball Chicken Pot Pies

Here it is- the recipe you've all been waiting for! Here is my Grandma's basic recipe for chicken pot pie.

You Will Need:
1 small rotisserie chicken, de-boned and cubed
1 small can of cream of mushroom or chicken soup (do not dilute)
1 or 2 cans of chicken broth
1 medium size onion, chopped fine
2 stalks of celery, chopped fine
2 medium sized potatoes, cooked and cubed (if not available, bake)
1 1/2 cup of fresh mushrooms, sliced and pan fried
1/2 - 1 tsp of thyme or sage for flavor


Prep:
Place all ingredients into a fairly large pot, and gently heat. Thicken if needed with cornstarch mixed with cold water, about a 1/4 cup. Bring everything to a boil and add slowly the corn starch. For crust, I recommend Pilsbury. They are already pre-made, rolled out, and are really delicious. If you can't find them in your local grocery store, pick them up online from Buy-Buy Mama.

P.S. Crust may be brushed with an egg wash for a more golden look.
Bake at 350 for a half hour and let stand for 20 minutes before serving.

So there you go- there is the recipe. Let me know in the comments how your pot pie turned out, if you decide to try the recipe. I apologize for the wait.
