Chicken Pot Pie With A Tater Tot Crust Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) baking dish with cooking spray.
• In 4-quart saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in onions, grill seasoning and thyme. Cook 4 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until onion softens. Stir in flour; cook and stir 1 to 2 minutes or until mixture is deep golden brown. Stir in broth. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring frequently. Boil and stir 1 minute. Remove from heat. Stir in cream cheese until melted. Stir in chicken and frozen mixed vegetables.
• Pour chicken mixture into baking dish. Top mixture with frozen potatoes. Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until golden brown and mixture is at least 165°F in center.
• Top with Cheddar cheese. Bake 2 to 4 minutes or until melted.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Place a large skillet over a medium heat and add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the onion and saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Add the chicken, cream of celery soup, 1/2 can of water and the frozen mixed vegetables. Stir well and cook until just heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
• Arrange the tater tots in tightly packed rows to completely cover the top. Do not press the tots into the mixture; just let them sit on top. Bake until the tot topping is browned and the chicken mixture is bubbly, about 30 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
• In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and carrots and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring until soft, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour so that it gets evenly distributed. Add 1 1/2 cups of the milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Repeat with the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk. Stir in the chicken broth base, peas, chicken, thyme, and a few turns of pepper and simmer, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings if desired.
• Transfer the mixture to an 11x8-inch baking dish (or other 3-quart ovenproof dish) and cover the bitch with Tater Tots. Arrange them snugly and neatly. Bake until the tots are golden brown. Begin checking for doneness at 30 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve with ketchup, if desired.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°.
• In large skillet, cook onion and pressed garlic in butter or olive oil over medium high heat until onion is tender.
• Add cooked chicken, frozen veggies, undiluted soup, milk, thyme and pepper.
• Stir ingredients together and cook over medium heat until hot and bubbly. Stirring occasionally.
• Cover and cook an additional 5 minutes; stirring frequently.
• Spoon chicken mixture into ungreased 2-quart casserole dish.
• Arrange frozen tater tots on top.
• Bake 40 minutes or until bubbly and tater tots are slightly browned.
• Note: This recipe easily doubles and you can make two. I freeze the extra one with the tater tots on top and then remove and thaw in fridge. Bake as directed above. Also, I sometimes add an extra can of soup and an extra 1/4 cup of milk for a thinner consistency. This would be a personal preference. Also, I add approximately 1/2 tsp of dried thyme and 1/2 tsp of black pepper for one casserole - adaptable to your taste.
