Chicken Pot Pie with Mashed Potato Twist

[@philomenahearn1717]

Once again we can rely on you to show us a lovely recipe that is both nutritious and comforting. Your recipes reflect you.

[@BackyardChef]

Thank you. Best, Rik

[@minkgin3370]

What I love about Rick’s lovely recipes is he doesn’t waste time showing us how to peel, slice & chop. He rightly believes all those who are willing to make his recipes have cooked before & KNOW how to do these things.👍🏻

[@lindak8664]

I’m quite convinced they pump meats full of water these days to increase the weight and charge more for the meats, even though they swear it’s to make it more moist. Chicken is the worst of the lot here in Australia, the amount of water is horrendous, you can’t fry your chicken, it just boils. Your chicken pot pie looks delicious. Definitely putting that on the list! 🤤

[@BackyardChef]

They do indeed! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@tilerman]

The chicken i get from my local supermarket isn't to bad although there is some added water, but the 'continental' Halal butchers near me are terrible. The breasts are huge, abnormally so and impossible to roast or pan fry. OK'ish for curry but anything else, no chance.

[@MovieMakingMan]

They inject 18% of water in chickens. They are selling water. It’s a scam.

[@johnbaldwin143]

Hahaha Rik, clearing the plate at the end! What a terrific and inexpensive recipe. Genuine bloke with a genuine passion for sharing his cooking skills. There is always a little chef tip in every one to!

Cheers, mate. Thank you. Best, Rik

[@lenagreen4031]

Nothing wrong with a big lump of butter. I feel it flavours the food better than oil, unless of course your cooking pasta/ curry etc! X

[@SarahWalker-Smith]

A lovely idea. I think the potato topping is a tad healthier than pastry. A leek and a few mushrooms might go nicely in it too. Thanks Rick.

[@BackyardChef]

Great idea! Thank you. Best, Rik

[@countesscable]

Yes, I think cheese and leek in the mash would be fantastic!

[@wendyrowbottom2727]

Yes, I put leeks instead of celery (not a lover). OMG bloody lovely

[@brian-px1bb]

Made a double batch of this using a Costco rotisserie chicken. Also added sauteed mushrooms. The pickiest eaters of my family (aunt, niece and nephew) devoured this. I found myself lamenting for the first time ever: “I should have made more mashed potatoes.” Another grand-slam recipe, Rik. That bit about leaving holes in the potatoes for the cheese to melt into was spot on.

[@BackyardChef]

And yes, The Magician pulls another cracking dish out of his hat! 🎩 thanks, Rik! My recipe folder is bulging with great recipes from your channel! I found one you did a few years ago where you made some Irish Cream (Baileys). Since the magic season is almost around the corner, please could you do an updated new-and-improved recipe? That would be fantastic if you could!

I love chicken pot pie. I normally make single serves in ramekins, with pastry on top. I absolutely LOVE the idea of cheesy mash on top!
