Servings: 6 Servings
- 2 chicken breasts, boneless skinless, cut into small bite-size pieces
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 celery stalks, diced.
- 1 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama seasoning
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
- 12 ounce frozen mixed vegetables
- 16 ounce Mi Tienda Salsa Verde, medium
- 10.5 ounce chicken queso blanco condensed soup
- 1 cup cilantro, chopped
- 1 Pillsbury refrigerated pie crust
- 1 tablespoon butter, melted, or egg wash
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
Using a large cast-iron pan or oven-safe skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat.
Add chicken, onions, celery, and seasonings. Stir to combine. Cook until the chicken is no longer pink and onions are translucent and the celery are tender.
Add the frozen vegetables, salsa verde, condensed soup, and cilantro. Stir to combine and heat just until mixture starts to boil.
Cover with 1 pie crust dough and cut several slits in the top of the pie dough.
Brush pie crust with melted butter, or use an egg wash.
Place the cast-iron skillet in the oven and bake for 16-19 minutes or until the crust is golden.
Carefully remove from the oven and serve with a side salad and crusty bread, if desired.
Tips
- Always use a cast-iron pan or oven-safe skillet for this recipe. Anything else will warp.
- Don't skip the egg wash unless you want your crust to be pale.
