This Creamy Chicken Pot Pie recipe with cream of chicken soup is the best! It is delicious, easy, and also budget-friendly! Juicy chicken, peas, carrots, onion, and creamy chicken soup are topped with a flaky top crust that is golden brown. It takes just 8 ingredients plus salt and pepper.
Coat two 18.6-ounce baking dishes with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the peas and carrots mix, onions, salt and pepper. Cook stirring occasionally, until veggies are soft, about 5 minutes.
Add the chicken and cook until just browned.
Add the soup and milk. Mix well and cook over medium-low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
Divide the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dishes.
If you're using store-bought crust, cut the crust in half and then trim the crust to the shape of the dish enough to reach the top edge all the way around. Cover each dish with half of the pie crust. Cut a few slits into the dough to let steam escape. (If you’re using a homemade crust, roll out each piece to fit the top of your dishes, and then top each dish with the crusts.)
In a small bowl, whisk the egg. Brush the crusts with the beaten egg using a pastry brush.
Place baking dishes on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned.
Let cool for 10 minutes. Serve warm on top of cork trivets and enjoy!

Notes
You can use a store-bought pie crust but I prefer using this homemade pie crust recipe with the double crust ingredient amounts.
Use boneless skinless chicken breast or dark meat.
You can use rotisserie chicken instead. Omit the raw chicken during step 4 and add the rotisserie-cooked chicken during step 5.
You can also top this with puff pastry instead of pie crust.
Try using mixed vegetables instead of peas and carrots mix.
Store leftovers in an airtight container for 4-5 days in the fridge.
