Chicken Pot Pie

My very favorite meal is a homemade chicken pot pie. I have not had a decent chicken pot pie for years. That was until a few weeks ago. I decided to purchase a box of the gluten free pantry FRENCH bread and Pizza Mix.. I baked it and it was so good. I had to add extra salt, though.

I was eating out with some girlfriends, coffee at our local coffee shop, and I brought along a warmed piece of my new bread with some butter and jam. I was saying how it was very dense and soft and rich tasting when my closest friend remarked that it would make an excellent dinner of gravy and turkey for my teenaged son who is always very hungry. I had just been telling her about a funny incident when he was so hungry after school that I had given up, driven him to the nearest Marie Calender's and let him order as much food as he needed to fill up. One of the meals he'd ordered was a chicken pot pie. I really wanted some.

So, after a "duh" moment... I realized I could make a chicken pot pie for myself. I'm eating my second pie right now (these are single serve bowls). I am in heaven.

Could you post your recipe for chicken pot pie. I would love to make individual ones and freeze them for the times I don't want to cook. Thanks.

Ditto! I have been hungry for anything with gravy and considered trying to make meat pie type things, with pie dough wrapped all around the filling, but I think I could get the same effect with just the crust on top. Pleeeease! I'm sure I could figure out the filling, but tell us about your crust.

Oh, sure. Like I said, I found that I really enjoy the Gluten free Pantry French Bread and Pizza Crust mix. I prepare it following the bread recipe. I use Kinik all purpose flour to help handle the very gooey mixture once prepared. It's not to be rolled out. I simply take a large spoonful of the dough (it must rise for 40 minutes prior to using it) and use my fingers to smooth it out on top of my individual serving sized pies.

I use the one crust method for my pie.

Everyone has a recipe they will prefer for the contents. Mine is simple, but I really enjoy it. I found a bouillon that I like. I suggest you use your personal favorite if you want to follow my recipe. I use a veggie bouillon that is gluten free and has a lot of flavor.

I prepare boiled chicken. Pull apart the meat. I use about three cups of chicken.

I prepare two cups of bouillon. I add two cloves of minced garlic and 2 carrots, two celery stalks and broccoli to the boiling bouillon.

I put three tbs of olive oil in a deep dish frying pan. I add half of a large onion.

I drain the bouillon into a measuring cup.

I take 1 1/2 cups of my bouillon and add it to my onion, leaving behind, for now, the chunky veggies.

I reserve 1/2 a cup of bouillon and add to it 2 tbs of corn starch. Whisk. Add to your onion which should be in a deep dish frying pan as I said.

When thickened, add the veggies that were being reserved.

Next, I add the chicken. I stir all together for a few minutes.

I pour my mixture into single serve, oven safe baking dishes.

Top with the amount of dough you need to cover the mixture. It bakes very well in my oven at 350 for 30 minutes. It tastes as good as ANY pot pie I can recall from my gluten days. I am never left feeling deprived.

Prior to finding a crust that I enjoy for this pot pie, I always used this recipe over rice. It is delicious over rice. Very nice on a chilly evening.

While I typed this recipe, I was eating my pot pie. I can assure you that it is very good. It is the perfect crust, in my opinion.

mmm, this has always been one of my fave meals (we grew up on the frozen kind!!)

I was thinking...could this be premade then frozen? like the storebought ones? i'd love to do that for my days off from the kitchen :P

      Airborne Gluten?

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten! Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten. I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store. The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions. I find the histamine release...

      Recovery from gluten challenge

      I’m wondering if anyone has had any experience with the gluten challenge. My teenager completed a gluten challenge over the summer, it ended up being 10 weeks although she stopped being consistent eating gluten after 6. Her previous endoscopy was negative but this past August it was positive after the gluten challenge. If you have done the gluten challenge, ...

      Airborne Gluten?

      Hello everyone, I was on here a few months ago trying to figure out if I was reacting to something other than gluten, to which a very helpful response was that it could be xanthin or guar gum. Since then, I have eaten items with both of those ingredients in it and I have not reacted to it, so my mystery reaction to the Digiorno pizza remains...

      Rectal pain

      I was suffering from PF just previous to being dx with celiac disease about 25 yr. ago but have not been troubled with it since. Not sure what the connection between the two is of if there is one. But I do know it is a very painful condition that takes your breath away when it strikes.

      Airborne Gluten?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Hello, @annamarie6655, Yes, there's many of us who react to airborne gluten!   Yes, animal feed, whether for chickens or cats or dogs, can release airborne gluten.  I can get glutened from the bakery section at the grocery store.   The nose and mouth drain into the digestive system and can trigger systemic reactions.   I find the histamine release in response to airborne gluten will stuff up my sinuses and bother my eyes.  High histamine levels do cause anxiety and migraines.  The muscle spasms can be caused by high histamine, too.  The digestive system may not manifest symptoms without a higher level of gluten exposure.   Our bodies make an enzyme, DAO (diamine oxidase), to break down histamine.   Pyridoxine B 6, Cobalamine B12, Vitamin C, copper, zinc, and iron are needed to make DAO.  DAO supplements are available over the counter.  Taking a B Complex supplement and additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) helps reduce the amount of histamine being released.  Mast cells without sufficient Thiamine have an itchy trigger finger and release histamine at the slightest provocation.  Thiamine helps mast cells refrain from releasing their histamine.    I find taking additional TTFD thiamine helps immensely with neurological symptoms as TTFD can easily cross the blood brain barrier without a carrier.  High histamine in the brain can cause the muscle spasms, anxiety and migraines.  Vitamin C really helps with clearing histamine, too.   The Digiorno pizza mystery reaction could have been caused by a reaction to the cheese.  Some people develop lactose intolerance.  Others react to Casein, the protein in dairy, the same as if to gluten because Casein resembles the molecular structure of gluten.  An enzyme used in some dairy products, microbial transglutaminase, causes a gluten reaction because it is the same as the tissue transglutaminase our bodies make except microbes make it.  Those tTg IgA blood tests to diagnose celiac disease measure tissue transglutaminase our bodies release as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.   You're doing great!  A Sherlock Holmes award to you for figuring out the connection between airborne gluten and animal feed!!!

      I’m wondering if anyone has had any experience with the gluten challenge. My teenager completed a gluten challenge over the summer, it ended up being 10 weeks although she stopped being consistent eating gluten after 6. Her previous endoscopy was negative but this past August it was positive after the gluten challenge. If you have done the gluten challenge, how long did it take you to feel back to normal? It took about two months before she got “glutened” again but now she’s having difficult coming back from that and has a lot of fatigue. I’m hoping someone has some advice!

      Airborne Gluten?

      By annamarie6655 · Posted

      Hello everyone, I was on here a few months ago trying to figure out if I was reacting to something other than gluten, to which a very helpful response was that it could be xanthin or guar gum.    Since then, I have eaten items with both of those ingredients in it and I have not reacted to it, so my mystery reaction to the Digiorno pizza remains.    HOWEVER, I realized something recently- the last time I got glutened and the most recent time I got glutened, I truly never ate anything with gluten in it. But i did breathe it in.    The first time was a feed barrel for my uncle’s chickens- all of the dust came right up, and most of what was in there was wheat/grains. The second time was after opening a pet food bag and accidentally getting a huge whiff of it.    When this happens, I tend to have more neurological symptoms- specifically involuntary muscle spasms/jerks everywhere. It also seems to cause migraines and anxiety as well. Sometimes, with more airborne exposure, I get GI symptoms, but not every time.    My doctor says he’s never heard of it being an airborne problem, but also said he isn’t well versed in celiac specifics. I don’t have the money for a personal dietician, so I’m doing the best I can.    is there anyone else who has experienced this, or gets similar neurological symptoms?
