Tips

• Make sure you use really cold butter and water

• A splash of vinegar in the water will make your pie crust tender

• Add water gradually just until the dough comes together

• Cook the chicken just to get color on the outside. Its ok if the inside is undercooked it will finish cooking while it bakes.

• Make the filling thick to avoid a soupy pot pie

• Cook the roux so it does not taste like flour

• Use frozen mixed vegetables not canned to avoid mushiness

• If you want a crispy bottom crust put it in the oven for 10 minutes before filling

• Brush with egg wash to protect dough from burning

• Let the pie cool before cutting into it to help it keep its shape
