This Personal Chicken Pot Pie in a Mug is a classic comfort food dish that's perfect when you want a quick and easy dinner or lunch! This recipe combines leftover chicken with a medley of vegetables in a creamy sauce, all baked together under country biscuits.

This Chicken Pot Pie in a Mug was inspired by my Easy Turkey Pot Pie (with cream of chicken soup) on this site. This recipe is popular during the winter but great for using up leftover chicken any time of the year!

📖Variations & Substitutions

  • Meat - you can use chicken breast, a small rotisserie chicken, leftover chicken, or use turkey instead of chicken
  • Butter - I use unsalted butter, but you could use salted butter or light butter
  • Biscuits - you can use homemade biscuits instead of store-bought or use lighter bisquick
  • Seasoning- you can use a little poultry seasoning and/or garlic powder in addition to the other seasonings or instead of
  • Salt - you can add additional table salt or use kosher salt
  • Cream of chicken soup - you can use regular or low-fat or you can make your own cream of anything soup:
  • Equal to one can of soup:
  • 2 tablespoon butter
  • 3 tablespoon flour
  • ½ cup milk
  • ½ cup chicken stock or broth
  • *You can add a little celery (or celery seed) for the cream of celery flavor or some chopped-up canned mushrooms for the mushroom-flavored soup.
  • **To lighten it up: use light butter and non-fat milk.

🥗 Side Dishes

You can serve these individual pot pies with a side salad or veggie sticks. I also like to serve it with Quick Cucumber Kimchi.

🍽Equipment

You will need an oven-safe mug for this chicken pot pie mug recipe. I love my 20-ounce Corningware meal mug (affiliate link)- it's a perfect size!

🌡️Storage

Store leftovers of this chicken pot pie in a mug in the fridge in the same meal mug you cooked it in (it serves as an airtight container when you have the lid on).

If you're looking for an individual chicken pot pie you can freeze after baking, this one is ideal! The best part is you can freeze it in the mug as soon as it's cool, then simply heat it up in a microwave for 2 minutes. I took it to work after it had been frozen and heated it up- it was perfect for eating on the go!

👪 Serving Size

This chicken pie recipe makes one serving. However, you can half, double, or triple the recipe, depending on how much leftover chicken you have. Simply click on the blue serving number and select the number of servings you'd like. The ingredient quantities will automatically adjust. You'll just need additional meal mugs.

💭Top tip

You will have leftover cream of chicken soup. If you only make one serving, you can use the remainder of the chicken soup to make this Slow Cooker Chicken Stew!

🦺Food safety

  • Cook chicken pot pie to an internal minimum temperature of 165 °F (74 °C)
  • Do not use the same utensils on cooked food, that previously touched raw meat
  • Wash hands after touching raw meat
  • Don't leave food sitting out at room temperature for extended periods
  • Always have good ventilation when using a gas stove
  • Never leave cooking food unattended

    See more guidelines at USDA.gov 

This country-style chicken pot pie for one is a great way to use up leftover chicken!
