Looking for a tasty, comforting main dish in a flash? This recipe uses “pre-made” ingredients easily found at the grocery and really satisfies. Read about it on my RV Cooking Show blog at http://rvcookingshow.blogspot.com/2008/03/i-took-shortcutand-it-was.html.
Pre-heat your oven to 350-400 degrees.
Take pie crusts out of the freezer to thaw – separating the two shells.
Try to find pie shells made without lard – much healthier that way.
Combine chicken, vegetables, potato cubes and half a bottle of bbq sauce in a large bowl and mix together. Add more bbq sauce if not moist enough (the sauce will be absorbed so make it wet to start).
Use BBQ sauce that does not contain high fructose corn syrup. You’ll find this info on the bottle’s ingredients label. FYI – Trader Joe’s brand is excellent.
Spoon chicken mixture into one pie shell. Top filling with a thin layer of bbq sauce.
Carefully turn remaining pie shell out of tin and place atop the filling – making a top crust. Pinch edges together in an eye-pleasing fashion and cut 3 to 4 vent holes in the top of the crust.
Be gentle with the pie crust – it has a tendancy to tear. If that happens don’t panic – “paste” it back together with a drop or two of water and your fingers.
Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool for 5 to 10 minutes.
My oven doesn’t brown so well but if yours does consider using aluminum foil to cover the pie crust edges so they don’t burn. Remove the foil about half way through cooking so they can get all brown and crusty…mmmm.
Slice and serve with an easy green salad tossed with Ranch dressing and extra bbq sauce on the side for dipping.
