What’s in Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie?
A little bit simpler than a classic chicken pot pie, this recipe is topped with biscuits or crescent rolls for the perfect rainy-day dinner.
- CHICKEN I use chicken breasts and there is no need to pre-cook them. Put them in the freezer 15 minutes before cutting for easier handling. Chicken thighs work perfectly in this recipe too.
- VEGETABLES Frozen veggies make for quick prep but you can use fresh too. Simply chop and steam for a few minutes before adding. Use leftover roasted potatoes in this recipe too!
- SAUCE Dairy (milk) doesn’t always hold up well in the slow cooker so I’ve used condensed soup in this recipe (it also makes prep quick). If you do make a homemade sauce, use heavy cream added towards the end of cooking (and thicken with a cornstarch slurry if needed).
- SEASONINGS The soups have lots of flavor so I keep it simple with a few sprigs of parsley and some poultry seasoning. I skip the salt in this recipe as the soups have enough. Taste before serving and add more seasonings if needed.

Just finished making this recipe. I was excited to try it since the picture title was so appealing. In the picture it looks creamy. However upon cooking it as directed, it was soupy. As other commenters have said after cooking. I’m not sure if the instructions is missing something but I’m going to make the following assumptions of why this recipe turned out soupy. 1. Ingredients call for 3 chicken breast… maybe being specific on the pounds of chicken breast would be helpful, chicken breast also release moisture/juices as it cooks and I used non frozen chicken breast. 2. The instructions don’t specify if the lid must remain the entire time of cooking. I kept my lid in place for the time said before adding vegetables. After I added the vegetables I cooked the food with the lid off so see if that would make a difference. After seeing that this didn’t work, I added cornstarch to mix, it did thicken to my liking but didn’t taste creamy. Also this recipe needs more seasoning because it was bland. Apart from what the listed ingredients are, I added more salt, celery salt, thyme, garlic powder, onion powder & paprika. Next time I’ll use fresh thyme.
Hi Veronica, For chicken breasts, the average chicken breast is about 6 ounces so we use 3 roughly that size. When adding the soup we add just the condensed soup with no additional water with it, some readers have made that mistake and it does make it much soupier than intended. We do also leave the lid on when it is cooking.
For a creamier texture you can mash up the potatoes a little bit or other readers have added dried mashed potatoes to thicken the soup as well with good results! Fresh thyme sounds like a great addition too to boost the flavor. We hope you enjoyed this recipe :)
Can you use frozen chicken breast?
It is recommended to defrost the chicken before adding it to the crockpot but it should work with frozen chicken as well. Just be sure the chicken reaches an internal temperature of 165°F before serving.
Mine is not white creamy looking it is more like clear broth stew looking. It smells amazing I just don’t understand why it’s not creamy looking
Hi Natalia, the cream of celery and cream of chicken soup should give it the white creamy look so I am not sure why yours is more clear.
Mine isn’t creamy either it looks like soup!
Oh no, I’m sorry this didn’t thicken well for you. Did you use the condensed soup from a can (we used Campbell’s brand) without adding milk or water to it?
If you need to thicken the mixture, combine 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of water and stir into the broth a bit at a time. Cover and let cook for 5 minutes. You may not need all of the cornstarch mixture. I hope that helps.
