ingredients

To make this easy and delicious chicken pot pie recipe you’ll need a few ingredients that you can get at almost any grocery store or even online!

Here’s what we are working with:

how to make chicken pot pie with crescent rolls

You’ll find the exact amounts and printable steps in the recipe card below. Here’s what each step looks like, plus the little things that make it work.

1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.

2. Mix the filling. In a large bowl, stir together the shredded rotisserie chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen mixed vegetables (no need to thaw), milk, garlic powder, onion powder and Italian seasoning. Taste before adding salt and pepper, since the canned soup is already salted.

3. Top with crescent rolls. Pour the filling into a baking dish and spread it out. Unroll the crescent dough and lay it over the top, overlapping the pieces slightly so the whole dish is covered.

4. Bake for 35–40 minutes, until the crescent topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling at the edges.

5. Let it rest a few minutes before serving, so the creamy filling can thicken slightly.

how long do you bake chicken pot pie with crescent rolls?

Bake it at 375°F for 35–40 minutes, until the crescent rolls are golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Because the chicken is already cooked, you’re just heating the filling through and baking the crust. For leftovers and casseroles like this one, the USDA recommends reheating to 165°F in the center.

does chicken pot pie with crescent rolls need a bottom crust?

No. This recipe uses crescent rolls only on top. The filling bakes directly in the dish, so there’s no bottom crust to roll out or get soggy.

can I use canned chicken or other cooked chicken?

We use rotisserie chicken, but any cooked, shredded chicken works. Leftover roast chicken or well-drained canned chicken are easy swaps. Use about 2½ cups, the same amount as in the recipe card.

can I meal prep chicken pot pie?

YES! This chicken pot pie recipe makes one incredible meal prep! It’s easy, delicious, and loaded with comfort and flavor. You will want to divide the chicken pot pie into 4 meal prep containers and get ready for one delicious week of prepped lunches!

Store the meal-prep portions in the refrigerator and eat them within 3–4 days. Reheat each one until it’s steaming hot in the center (165°F).

can you make chicken pot pie ahead of time?

Yes. Mix the filling, cover it and refrigerate it for up to a day. When you’re ready to bake, spread it in the dish, add the crescent rolls and bake. A cold filling may need a few extra minutes in the oven, so make sure it’s bubbly and hot in the center (165°F). It’s best to add the crescent rolls just before baking, so the dough stays flaky.

can you freeze chicken pot pie?

Yes. Freeze baked, cooled leftovers in airtight, freezer-safe containers for up to 2–3 months for the best quality. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator, then reheat to 165°F. The crescent topping will be softer after freezing than when it’s freshly baked.

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as we do. It’s definitely one of those recipes worth saving. There’s nothing better than having what looks and tastes like a gourmet meal on the table, but one that saves you time behind the scenes.
