Skillet Chicken Pot Pie

Recipe Description

This recipe for Skillet Chicken Pot Pie is a firm favorite with my family. If you can think of a more comforting combination than chicken, mushroom, and pastry, then I need to hear it! This pie is a firm favorite in my kitchen and I am delighted to share the recipe with you today. 

To make this pie, start by preparing the filling in a large cast-iron skillet. Place a prepared pie crust on top of the filling in the skillet and fold in the edges. Make four large slices in the lid and brush with egg white. Bake in the oven until golden on top. This pie will be steaming hot when you remove it from the oven so leave to cool for about 10 minutes before serving. 

To make my Skillet Chicken Pot Pie, you will need the following ingredients:
