This is comfort food to me. It may be different than the "chicken pot pie" you are used to with a crust as it's more like a stew, but, give it a try...you may like it. I don't make my own pot pie squares (dough), but have included the directions if you would like to.

How to make it
- Cook chicken in simmering water and broth with celery, onion, rosemary, salt and pepper until tender, about 1-2 hours. (I usually start out on a medium boil and reduce to simmer).
- Remove chicken from broth. When cool enough to handle, remove chicken from bones, discard skin and bones, and cut into bite-size pieces.
- Taste broth for seasoning and add more salt and pepper if needed.
- While chicken is cooling add potatoes to broth.
- Add cut up chicken to broth.
- Add Pot Pie squares or Bow Ties to broth.
- Cook until desired doneness. I like mine a bit firm.
- Add fresh parsley right before you are ready to serve.
- You want this to have some broth, so you may have to add more water or chicken broth.
- I like to serve it with coleslaw or applesauce and biscuits.
