Chicken pot pie

Chicken  pot pie is a favorite around here and it can be quick —or not

Frozen chicken breast can be cooked on the insta pot in 15 minutes.   Place frozen chicken in the pot on a rack. Do not overlap.    Place a cup of liquid of choice.  Water, or chicken stock,
Close the lid, set to seal, and cook 12 to 18 minutes depending on the thickness of the chicken breast, 15 is a good go to time,  check to see if it is cooked thoroughly  with a thermometer.

Make cream soup from a cream soup base or use a can of cream of ... soup.

Place cooked, cubed chicken, frozen mixed vegetables or peas and carrots , and creamed soup in a baking dish.

Now, this is where it gets to how much time do you have,

Your “crust” can be

Biscuits.
A ready made pie crust,
A scratch pie crust
Or home made biscuits.

Your preference.

Bake according to your crust directions.  The filling is already good to go. You are just heating it through,

I usually only do one crust becaise we don’t need more carbs.

Another option is to just heat the filling in the insta pot or on the stove or oven and make the biscuits and serve the chicken mixture over biscuits.

Whatever works with your family and time constraints.
