  I do this, but instead of all butter use a combo of butter/olive oil to saute the leeks, and put the crust on top instead of on the bottom. Great way to use up leftover chicken/turkey and veg. - 10/6/10

  Wow, the thyme and the Leeks really do the trick with this meal. My husband used "Mediterrerian Veggies" (cauli, carrots, italian beans, red bell pepper) instead of what I refer to as the Horrid Mix (carrots, corn, green beans, and lima beans) - Good good good! - 10/20/10

  This is how I do my pot pie already. Add in more broth for sure. Too dry. I also add a 1/4 cup of Sherry. You will love the Sherry! Try it. I got it off of a Southern recipe blog and I will never do a pot pie without it. It makes the pot pie amazing! - 3/26/12

  I used left over turkey, broccoli, and carrots. One cup of broth was not enough - it was way to thick so I added another cup of broth and some milk. Instead of a bottom crust, I put on a top crust using a Pillsbury pie crust. It was great - everyone loved it. Great flavor. Will make again. - 11/20/10

  I actually quite liked how easy this recipe was. However, I found the filling just a bit too dry. As per some of the suggestions, I added 1/2 cup extra broth, but think next time I will use even more. Also, I didn't have leek, so I used a regular, diced onion and garlic powder instead of thyme. - 11/29/10

  Very good.I love pot pies anyway and this stands up there with the best. Next time I'll try it with a few potato slices on top. Like sheppard's pie? We'll see! Granzam - 3/13/10

  My whole family loved this dish. It was simple and flavorful. I loved that the filling was thicker than most potpies. It didn't run all over when I cut each piece. Definitely a keeper. - 5/22/11

  I did mine with turkey and I used the basil instead of the thyme. I think thyme would be wonderful with the chicken.
  Oh and I used the coconut oil instead of the butter and I did put the crust on top.
  Thanks - 11/26/10

  The "pot pie" I learned to make, my paternal grandmother's recipe, didn't have a crust. It has thick homemade, almost dumpling like egg noodles and stewed in a stockpot. The meat and veggie pies are just that. Pies! There is no "pot" involved. - 3/25/13

  I do a similar chicken pie. I don't use flour, I thicken with a little cornstarch. I also use corn instead of mixed veg, to make it a chicken and corn pie. No butter is used to help reduce the fat content. I make it up as a soup base and from that I can also make a stew, risotto, pasta, pastries. - 3/25/12

  I added an extra cup of broth & 1/4 cup cooking sherry as recommended by others & consistency turned out just right. The leeks make up bulk of dish but were good. We weren't sure about it at first until added salt - it really needed it! Heaped over a Grands Jr. biscuit instead of a crust. Very good! - 1/8/16

  This recipe is really delicious. I might try putting the crust on the top the next time and maybe adding a bit more broth. The leeks really made this dish. I used a bag of Green Giant mixed vegetables, but I also might mix it up with broccoli next time. - 4/10/13

  Really nice flavor..no thyme so used rosemary. No instructs on whether or not to cover, so I didn't. Next time I will as some veggies dried a bit on top. Not 5 min prep time...15 more accurate if on a 2nd time around with recipe. - 4/9/13

  I made this as documented except I put the crust on top. Used a bag of frozen pea, carrots, corn. (all of the vegetables I typically stay away from) My husband is not a big vegtable lover so I like coming up with ways for him to eat them without causing him pain. The crust really helped. - 3/26/13

  I make something very similar, but with a spash of white zin! My kids like to dig into a top crust & so do I, so I make mine "bottomless!" I use a corningwear dish, & put the pre-made roll out dough on top. Voila! We are still saving calories & get the 'flaky golden top!' YUM! =o) - 3/25/13

  I would do this the opposite way, use a top crust only, in stead of the pie crust which gets soggy. Either use individual ramekins, or a round or square baking dish, and put a premade pie crust over the top. - 3/25/13

  This recipe was frustrating to me. It sounded easy and good, but didn't work. I doubled the gravy but it wasn't enough and I had to make more, which added more butter. The picture looks nothing like mine. - 2/22/13

  I made this last night. I had some homemade crust in the freezer and used it on top and fresh leaks from the garden. Hubby said it was the best pot pie he's had and the only fresh one he's had. I also added some red pepper seeds to spice it up a little. Definitely in my favorites! - 8/25/12
