Chicken pot pie is a classic comfort food dish that will undoubtedly be enjoyed in many homes this winter. Our version is a combination of hearty vegetables and chicken, simmered in a savory broth, topped with a flaky puff pastry. Our pot pie is low in spice, acid, and salt, making it a well-suited dish for our critically ill clients on renal or mild diets.
