What is a pot pie?

The name “pot pie” traditionally refers to savory meat pies baked in a shell with both a top flaky crust and bottom crust. I use different methods to make the recipe come together faster, such as a slow cooker recipe as well as a crustless pot pie recipe. Both have the same flavors as a traditional pot pie.

How long does chicken pot pie last in the fridge?

Leftover chicken pot pie will last in the fridge for up to 5 days, stored in an airtight container.
