Rosemary Chicken Pot Pie

Chicken pot pie is my all time favorite comfort food.  I have wonderful memories of my dad making his recipe on cool winter days.  My recipe has evolved a tiny bit in that I like meals I can put together easily and quickly with a couple kitchen hacks like pre-cooked chicken and a biscuit mix crust topper.  It hasn't failed yet to put smiles on the faces of everyone in the family.

I bought chicken breast on sale in the grocery last week.  To make it recipe ready I boiled it about 20 minutes till it was done.  I could tell when it was done by using a fork to gently tear a piece apart.  I removed the chicken from the water and allowed it to dry before slipping the pieces in a freezer zip bag and freezing them.  That step makes it easy to pull out the amount of chicken I need for casseroles later.  

Using one of the extra large boneless/skinless chicken breast I pre-cooked and froze last week to make Chicken Pot Pie made this a nice easy mid week meal.  I've also made this recipe with a deli roasted rotisserie chicken for a great flavor change. The Rosemary from my garden gave the whole house a really yummy aroma.
