This Chicken Alfredo Pot Pie recipe has a creamy alfredo sauce filled with juicy chicken and tender vegetables topped with a flaky, golden crust.
With cool, crisp fall in the air, warm, creamy comfort foods are perfect for family dinners. I started with the traditional chicken pot pie and then added alfredo sauce and a gorgeous puff pastry crust.
This easy family dinner recipe can be customized to your family’s specifications by adding your favorite vegetables and removing ones you don’t want.
How To Make Chicken Alfredo Pot Pie
Step One: Chicken
Cut the chicken breasts into cubes and cook over medium-high heat for 5-6 minutes. Then, add diced potatoes and broccoli and continue cooking for 4-5 minutes.
Step Two: Sauce
Add heavy cream, shredded parmesan cheese, cream cheese, and butter. Then sprinkle with minced garlic, black pepper, and salt. Using a wooden spatula, stir and cook over medium heat until the ingredients are combined and the cheese is fully melted.
Step Three: Dish
Pour the mixture into a greased 10-inch cast-iron skillet or baking dish.
Step Four: Puff Pastry and Bake
Use a sheet of thawed puff pastry to cover the skillet. Gently pinch the pastry around the dish with your fingers to create a seal. Trim any excess around the edges. Beat an egg and brush it on top of the puff pastry.
The alfredo sauce will start to bubble while cooking and could spill over the edge of the dish. To catch any spills while baking, place the pan on a rimmed cooking sheet. This will help keep your oven clean. Bake at 400 degrees for 25-30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and flaky.
Chicken Alfredo Pot Pie FAQs
1. What other crust can I use? You could use a pie crust, tator tots or refrigerated biscuits.
2. What else could I add to this? Cauliflower, mushrooms, green beans, corn, peas or carrots
3. Can I make this in a 9×13 pan? Yes, that’s a great option for a crowd! Depending on how full your pan is you might want to add more filling and may need an additional sheet of puff pastry.
4. Can I freeze this? I have not had the best experience with freezing alfredo sauce. It tends to separate when you reheat it.

My family has very sensitive tummies to dairy. We love this recipe, for its yummy flavor – but can I sub anything for the butter, maybe and the heavy cream? Anything?

So yummy, this pot pie is superb! My family loved it. I added a little extra potatoe and broccoli and divided it into two 9 inch pie plates using 2 puff pasty sheets. This is going on to the dinner rotation for sure!

I made Chicken alfredo pot pies for my friends, followed the recipe and was very happy with it. I served it in individual pumpkin bowls covered with the puff pastry. Not a crumb was left on the plates. I followed it up with Blooming baked apples. Best dinner party ever.
