Homemade Chicken Pot Pie — But Make It Pasta
Chicken pot pie is a classic comfort food, but it can be a pain to make from scratch, especially on a busy weeknight. Enter my spin on this chicken dinner — Homemade Chicken Pot Pie Pasta. It features everything you look for in a traditional pot pie like tender chicken, fresh veggies, and savory dried herbs. But instead of pie crust, I used egg noodles. I chose this type of pasta over spaghetti or rotini because of how light it is and how quickly it cooks, but you can use whichever you prefer. It’s like a hybrid of chicken pot pie and stroganoff!
How To Make Chicken Pot Pie Pasta
- Cook egg noodles until al dente according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
- Sauté your veggies by melting the butter in a large skillet or pot, then adding in the onions, celery, and carrots and cook until tender, about 5 minutes. Add in garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Add in flour and stir continuously for 1 minute until the roux is slightly browned. This will thicken the sauce.
- Pour in the chicken broth and heavy cream, then whisk to combine. Simmer until thickened, or until it coats the back of a spoon.
- Add remaining ingredients — dried thyme, paprika, cubed cooked chicken, and egg noodles. Toss to combine.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Garnish with parsley and parmesan cheese, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
How To Store, Freeze, and Reheat Chicken Pot Pie Pasta
This chicken pot pie pasta freezes and keeps well, making it ideal for meal prepping and planning ahead!
- To Store: Allow pasta to cool completely, then scoop into airtight containers. Keep for 3-4 days.
- To Freeze: Store leftovers in an airtight, freezer-safe container or plastic bag, and keep in the freezer for up to two months.
- To Reheat: Allow frozen pasta to thaw in the fridge overnight. Then, reheat chilled pasta in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave for 2-3 minutes until warmed through.

Would you make any alterations to the recipe if using left over turkey in lieu of chicken?
Kelley Simmons
Nope I would make it just the same but just add chicken. I hope you enjoy!!
Ash
If I could give this infinity stars I would!
I love chicken pot pie filling but hate it with the crust, so I end up just breaking the top open and eating the innards. This is the most brilliant idea to make it into a pasta!
I’m sitting here having my leftovers today and it is so incredible share. Definitely one to try.
Also I used bow tie noodles because I don’t like egg and omg perfect 👌

Paul Leavitt
I just made this for the first time ! It is really delicious ! Totally like the chicken pot pie filling but perhaps it even gives a place like the Cracker Barrel a run for their money ! 😋
Kelley Simmons

Stephanie
Can you use frozen mixed veggies for a quick dinner?
Kelley Simmons
Yes absolutely! I would add it in at the end with the peas!
connie
This sounds great. Would like to try this recipe, but how much flour is needed for the roux?
Can’t wait to try your recipe. Fantastic idea of egg noodles instead of the usual crust.
thanks’

Hi Connie,
Sorry about that! You need 2 tbsp of flour to make the roux.
I hope you enjoy the pasta! Thank you!
