Clean out the Fridge Chicken Pot Pie

  • Leftover veggies that were about to go bad
    • Onions (If my pantry is bare, I use minced)
    • Potatoes (I’m trying to get rid of my big butt, so I don’t include these)
    • Old carrots
    • Withering celery
    • Red pepper or whatever veggies were about to get thrown out, like green beans
  • Leftover chicken (or whole roaster when it’s ridiculously cheap at Caputo’s, like 29 cents per pound
  • 1/2 stick salted butter
  • LOTS of dried sage
  • dried mustard
  • salt
  • pepper
  • flour
  • 2 cups or more chicken broth
  • Pioneer woman pie crust

Preheat oven to 400º. Melt butter in cast iron chicken fryer. Brown veggies and then slow roast for 10 mins. Add chopped chicken. Add lots of sage, at least 1 TBSP, maybe 1/2 tsp mustard, maybe 1/2 T or more salt, bunch of pepper. Add 1/4c or more flour till it’s a sticky mess. Add chicken broth slowly until it forms a gravy. Cover with dough. Cook for about 1/2 hour.
