• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until soft, about 15 minutes.
• While the potatoes are cooking, mix flour and salt together in a bowl. Slowly cut in shortening with a pastry cutter. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon ice water at a time and knead until dough forms a ball. Divide in half and flatten each piece onto a lightly floured surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out two 9-inch pie crusts.
• Drain potatoes and place back in the pot. Mash potatoes until smooth, then mix in milk and butter. Add cooked chicken, frozen vegetables, condensed soup, Cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, garlic salt, paprika, cayenne, and black pepper.
• Place one pie crust in the bottom of a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate. Fill with chicken and potato mixture, then top with the remaining crust. Cut slits in the top crust for venting.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.

• Pour chicken mixture into a greased shallow 2 quart casserole. Top with pastry pie crusts.
• Cut slits to allow steam to escape.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
• ** I add a little bit more half and half and add some water because otherwise it thickens too much. Don't let it get too thick before you pour it in the container to bake. The first time I made this it was too thick and ended up being a little dry by the time we got to eat it. So when it starts to thicken, go ahead and combine chicken with it and put it into the oven.

• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add both potatoes, carrots, green beans, and corn; saute, stirring frequently, until tender, about 10 minutes.
• While the vegetables are cooking, melt butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Whisk flour into the melted butter until it thickens, about 5 minutes. Gradually whisk the vegetable broth into the flour mixture; cook and stir until mixture thickens, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sour cream, heavy cream, milk, and seasoning blend; whisk thoroughly and cook sauce until heated through, 2 to 3 more minutes.
• Arrange 1/2 of the vegetables on top of the bottom crust and add 1/2 of the chicken over top. Layer with remaining vegetables, followed by remaining chicken. Ladle sauce over vegetables and chicken. Cover with the top crust, pinching to form a seal around the outer edge. Poke a few steam holes in the top.
• Bake in the preheated oven for about 40 minutes. covering the crust with foil when it starts to brown. Remove from the oven and let rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. The sauce will have thinned but as it rests it will thicken again.

CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. If you are using a double crust, set one of them out to thaw a little.
• Combine chicken, vegetables, and cream of chicken soup in a large mixing bowl. Add water until the consistency of the mixture is to your liking, not too runny. Salt and pepper to taste.
• If you are using a double pie crust, pour the mixture into the crust you have kept frozen. Trim the fluted edge from the thawed one and place it on top of the mixture. Press down the edges to seal and cut a slit in the top to vent. Place the pie pan on a cookie sheet for baking.
• If you are using crescent rolls for your crust, place the mixture in a 13x9 baking dish. Unroll the crescents on top of the mixture so that they are flat, don't tear them apart.
• Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, until bubbly. Keep an eye on the pie to make sure the crust does not burn. You can put tinfoil over the crust edges to prevent this if you like.
• If you are using crescent rolls, it usually takes about 30 minutes for them to get crispy enough. You will be baking this a lot longer than the directions say on the can, but this is okay. You want them to end up much crispier than if you were using them for crescent rolls.

DOUBLE-CRUST CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Make the filling: In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the onions, celery and carrots and cook, stirring, until the onions are translucent, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute more.
• Add the remaining 3 tablespoons butter. Once melted, stir in the flour. Cook the mixture, stirring constantly, until it just starts to turn golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer. Add the bay leaf, rosemary and thyme. Adjust the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Stir in the cream, chicken and peas and return to a simmer. Simmer for 4 to 5 minutes more. Remove the mixture from the heat. Stir in the salt and pepper. Ideally, cool it completely. Remove and discard the bay leaf, and stir in the parsley. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if desired.
• Meanwhile, prepare the crust: Have a 10-inch cast-iron or ovenproof skillet ready. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pie crust to a thickness of about 1/4 inch, making a circle about 3 inches wider all around than the skillet. Gently transfer the dough to the skillet, lining the bottom and easing it up the sides, allowing any excess to drape over the edge of the pan (aim for about 1 inch excess dough all the way around the pan). Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• While the bottom crust is chilling, roll out the remaining dough on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick. Gently transfer the dough to a parchment-lined baking sheet, then use a pastry wheel to cut it into 1 1/2- to 2-inch wide strips. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
• Pour the cooled filling into the chilled bottom crust and spread evenly. Remove the chilled dough strips from the fridge. Lay strips over the filling, leaving almost no space between them. When the pie is covered, rotate the pan and pull back every other strip of dough, then weave in a fresh strip to create a lattice. Lay the strips back over the new piece of dough, the repeat the process - this time pulling back all the pieces of dough that didn't get moved the first time. Continue until the entire pie is latticed.
• Press the dough together at the edges all the way around the pie; use scissors to trim away any excess dough, then fold the bottom crust up and over the lattice. Dip your finger in water and run it along the edges to help seal it. Use a floured fork to press around the edges to seal the dough together and crimp the crust. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and place a rack in the lower third of the oven. Brush the egg mixture over the top of the pie and sprinkle it with Parmesan. Bake for 30 minutes; lower the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and continue baking until the crust is deeply golden brown (the filling may bubble through the top crust a bit), 40 to 50 minutes more.
