This Chicken Pot Pie with Tater Tots is a creamy, comforting casserole topped with crispy tater tots instead of pie crust—easy to prepare, freezer-friendly, and perfect for weeknight family dinners.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, cubed chicken
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (corn, carrots, peas, green beans)
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can condensed cream of chicken soup
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon minced onion (dried)
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon coarse ground black pepper
  • 40–45 frozen tater tot crowns (about half a 30 oz bag)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F.
  2. In a 10-inch cast iron skillet or baking dish, combine cooked chicken, mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, milk, minced onion, thyme, and black pepper.
  3. Stir until well combined and spread the filling evenly in the dish.
  4. Top the filling with a single layer of frozen tater tots, arranged evenly.
  5. Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the tater tots are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
  6. Garnish with optional fresh thyme or shredded cheese if desired. Serve warm.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken for a quicker prep time.
  • Thaw frozen vegetables slightly before mixing for even cooking.
  • Make ahead by assembling the filling and adding tater tots just before baking.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for 3–4 days or freeze for up to 4 weeks.
