Making chicken pot pie in a pan doesn’t sound all that revolutionary, and it’s not, since that’s where many people make it anyway, but since it comes out so differently than deeper dish versions, and according to me, so much better, I decided we need to start calling it what it really is. Enjoy!

    As someone who has worked in a kitchen , the towel rule is a good thing, not only for your co workers but yourself. Many times I've told myself, "I won't forget that pan, I'm not a f#@%ing idiot." And 20 seconds later, I'm screaming obscenities after full-on grabbing the pan I forgot was hot, because I am, in fact, a f#@%ing idiot.
  • I am a huge fan of the higher crust to filling ratio, as well as the words "succulent" and "pastry."

    Never before have I cooked something that turned out exactly as it should! The only thing was, rather than go to the store for just fresh celery. I substituted all the extra added veggies with frozen ones only to imagine one of Chef John saying something like "...use whatever veggies you have on hand! You after all the Dwight Schrute of your veggies and roots." Which made me feel better about the decision. Thank you Chef John for always being a trusted friend and mentor in the kitchen!

    I've watched a million of Chef John's recipes and this video in particular feels like such a quintessential one. The "around the outside" line; the punny rhyming couplet; the copious use of butter, cayenne, and the freshly ground pepper; and, of course, the highly inventive, yet delicious twist on a traditional classic. All of these are such touchstones of this channel's unique style, content and charm. That consistency is such a wonderful, much needed respite from the crazy world we live in these days.

    I made this by reducing it for longer than I normally would and then putting puff pastry on top of it and baking it at 425 for 12 minutes. It was absolutely fantastic! I prepared it for a chef and he was blown away.

    You are the Stephen Fry of your Chicken Pan Pie.
  • As soon as you said the first 'round the outside, I KNEW you'd follow through! Was not disappointed!!

    I love how Chef Jon doesn’t just take a bite. He always enjoys his creations. 😋
  • @Amodia
    Chef John is one of those rare people I wish could live forever and keep spreading the inspiration and joy of cooking.
  • I had no idea this was such a new video. I made this last night. It was freaking awesome, comforting, and extremely satisfying. The husband ORDERED me to make it again in the future. Definitely a recipe treasure. 👍👍👍👍👍

    The browning on those splatters of sauce from the venting hole is gorgeous, reason enough to make a hole on its own
  • @creepingbert
    Looks like John is using the upper center of the oven now. Moving up in the world, it seems.
  • I’m going to make this, but with a bottom crust. I’m a HUGE fan of the crust, so I like to make a pot pie with a bottom crust like a regular pie. It’ll dirty two pans instead of one, but that’s still better than the way I usually do it. I also usually omit the peas in lieu of a little spinach and home grown and canned cut Italian flat beans, just because I don’t really think peas add a whole lot (I’m not wild about peas as a general rule) and I LOVE spinach and green beans.
  • @dukeclytn
    This will be made as soon as the weather cools off here. Simply amazing to watch this come together. I loved that you used chicken thigh. So much flavor.

    We all waited in anticipation after the first "round the outside"...and you didnt disappoint us :)

    This looks delicious! Chicken pot pie is an all-time fave of mine. I remember when I was a kid, the store bought chicken pot pies’ crust was a 2 layer pie crust, the filling was enclosed inside the crust. It was so delicious!!! Then, that changed to where there was only a top layer crust. Was I disappointed! Loved the crust a lot!
  • @truthfinder6246
    Potatoes and mushrooms, Chef! You rock. Love this. Thank you.
  • @wpattison
    HOT DAMN... I can't wait to make this. A couple of changes for my version: Subtract celery, add mushrooms. After the broth is added, stir in a heaping tablespoon of marmite. And lastly, take the dough scraps and make a 2D image of a chicken on the pie.

    Yay! We didn't go around the outside, around the outside, around the outside in forever!
