Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare your baking dish by spraying it with vegetable oil or greasing it with butter.
  2. Melt 4 tablespoons of salted butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and diced carrots. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender.
  3. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour and stir for about 1 minute. Gradually pour in 64 ounces of chicken broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Cook until it thickens slightly.
  4. Stir in 2 cans of cream of chicken soup, followed by 4 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken and 1 cup of frozen peas. Heat through and season to taste.
  5. Transfer the filling into your greased baking dish. Unroll two tubes of crescent rolls over the top, pinching seams to create a crust.
  6. Bake for 25-30 minutes until the crust is golden brown. Keep an eye on it towards the end.
  7. Let the pot pie cool for about 5 minutes before serving.
