Mini Chicken Pot Pies
Mini Chicken Pot Pies tuck tender chicken, herbed French cheese, and creamy vegetables into flaky shells for a rich, comforting bite in a handheld form. Using ready-made mini pie shells and a simple top crust keeps things fuss-free while delivering buttery layers and a savory, herb-forward filling. Great for weeknights, parties, or cozy appetizers straight from the oven.

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a sheet pan with parchment paper and set the individual pie shells on the sheet. Let the refrigerated pie crust sit on the counter until it reaches room temperature, about 15 minutes.

Put the frozen vegetables in a microwave-safe dish, add water, cover, and microwave on High until hot, about 5 minutes. Drain.

Stir the Boursin into the vegetables until melted. Mix in the cream, chicken, and black pepper; season with salt. Divide the mixture evenly among the pie shells.

Using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter, cut 8 circles from the refrigerated pie crust. Set a circle on top of each pie and crimp the edges together. With a sharp knife, cut two slits in an X shape in the center of each top crust. Stir the egg and water together in a cup until well blended; lightly brush each pie with the egg wash.

Bake on the center rack of the preheated oven until lightly browned, about 20 to 25 minutes. Remove and let cool on a rack for about 10 minutes.

Remove the foil tins from the pies and serve warm. Cook’s Note Taste before adding salt, as both leftover rotisserie chicken and Boursin can be salty. If you are crafty, use leftover dough to make designs for the top crusts; otherwise, save it for another use or discard.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
