Every time we take the kids out to eat they order Chicken Tenders. So many times we bring home uneaten chicken tenders. They sit in the fridge until I throw them away.
Today I decided to make Chicken Pot Pies out of the leftover Chicken Tenders.
Super Easy!
Leftover Chicken Tenders (if battered remove outside coating) - cubed
1 can of Mixed Veggies - drained
1/2 small can of chopped mushrooms
3/4 can of Cream of Chicken Soup
Milk to make the soup thick
Pre-made Pie Crust
Round aluminum pans
Mix veggies, mushrooms, and chicken in bowl. In a separate bowl add about 1/4 of the can of Cream of Chicken soup - add milk till you get the gravy you would like for your pies. I use about 3/4 of the can of Cream of Chicken - use as much as you like. Let mixture sit.
Cut out crust to fit in the aluminum pans - bake for about 15 minutes
Fill baked pie crust with chicken veggie mixture ~ top with pie crust ~ crimp edges of the pies ~ make a few air holes on the top of the crust.
Bake at 350 degrees until the pie crust is golden brown. I baked mine for about 45 minutes.
These are so tasty that while walking in the grocery store after eating these my hubby said.....I bet rotisserie chicken leftovers would make a tasty pot pie. :) That will be my next project.
Great idea. We always wind up with leftover rotisserie chicken. I will have to try this.
ReplyDeleteI'll have to make these!
ReplyDeletewhat a great way to use leftovers, my husband has been asking for potpie for awhile thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I have to try them!
ReplyDeleteI love making pot pies with leftovers. Never thought about removing the breading- thanks for the tip!
ReplyDeleteI love this and love pot pie! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeletei will always happily enjoy chicken pot pie. leftovers or not!
ReplyDeleteI love pot pies! So Yummy!
ReplyDeleteWow! Wish you could come over to my house! I bet you can make some really good meals from the leftovers we always have! Such a great idea this is!
ReplyDeleteMy kids do the same thing at restaurants - they'll eat like one of their chicken tenders! What a great idea to make pot pies with the leftovers! YUM
ReplyDeleteWhat an easy and delicious recipe! We love pot pies so we will try these out very soon!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea to reuse all the extra chicken! I have made it a mission to use most of my freezer food before I buy more! It will save us money!
ReplyDeleteWe always have leftover rotisserie, and I love finding recipes like this so it doesn't go to waste.
ReplyDeleteI love recipes like this that use up leftovers. Looks great!
ReplyDeleteGreat idea to use leftovers to make an entire second meal. We have leftover night each week to use them up versus throwing them away.
ReplyDeleteYum!! I have a "13 spice" chicken in the oven now so if we have any leftovers I want to make this!
ReplyDeleteI think I would make smaller ones though so the kids can take them to school in their lunches.
This definitely does sound easy the way you are explaining it. I've never given pot pies a whirl but this has made me think about it :)
ReplyDeleteI have actually never made chicken pot pies, or any pot pie to be honest. You do make it sound and look easy and it does look super delicious. I wonder if I try it if it will look like yours. Doesn't hurt to try right?
ReplyDeleteI am vegan but I can really imagine those would make a delicious treat for some non-vegan family members or friends!
ReplyDeleteSounds perfect, I love that it is so simple!
ReplyDeleteThat's certainly easy enough to pull off. I'll have to try it!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so delicious and easy to make. I'm sure my kids would love them!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so easy! I love chicken pot pie and I hate wasting any food at all. This is a great way to avoid any waste.
ReplyDeleteWe love chicken pot pies in this house. And homemade ones are so much better than store bought. Thanks for the dinner inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThis is such a great idea! My son loves chicken tenders, so he will love this recipe.
ReplyDeleteGreat use of leftovers! Our kids are creatures of habit and always order chicken tenders. Now I know a way to use them instead of tossing them in the garbage.
ReplyDeleteYour pictures always look amazing and your recipes are so easy to follow. Can’t wait to try these once.
ReplyDeleteNice recipe! Now I've found a way to use leftover. I'll try this on my dinner. Thanks for your recipe.
ReplyDeleteWow, what a creative idea! I usually order chicken tenders and my fridge usually have leftover in it. Now I know what to do with them. Thank you.
