This quick and easy crustless chicken pot pie recipe is ready in under 30 minutes! It comes together on the stovetop with minimal prep - my family loves this super-fast weeknight dinner. Also has a slow cooker version for busy weeks!

STEP 1:

In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken and sprinkle with salt. Cook for 4-5 minutes or until golden on one side, flip, and cook 3-4 more minutes. Remove the chicken onto a plate or bowl and set aside.

STEP 2:

Add the onion, sprinkle with salt, and add the garlic, and poultry seasoning. Cook 3-4 minutes, stirring frequently.

STEP 3:

Add the chicken, chicken stock, cream (or coconut milk), vegetables, and salt, stirring to combine. Cover, bring to a boil, then uncover and reduce to a simmer. Simmer for 5-8 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender and the chicken is cooked, stirring occasionally.

STEP 4:

Carefully ladle a few tablespoons of the broth into a bowl. Add the arrowroot (or cornstarch), whisking until completely smooth. Add the mixture back to the pot, stirring to combine. Simmer 1-2 more minutes, until it begins to thicken.

STEP 5:

Taste, adding additional salt if desired. Serve this one-pot meal as-is or with biscuits (or cornbread muffins) on the side for dipping!
