Time 1h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tablespoon salted butter
1/2 small onion, diced
1 rotisserie chicken, meat picked and shredded (3 to 4 cups)
Two 10.5-ounce cans cream of celery soup
One 12-ounce bag frozen mixed vegetables (classic: carrots, peas, green beans, corn)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 32-ounce bag frozen tater tots, thawed

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
Place a large skillet over a medium heat and add the butter. When the butter has melted, add the onion and saute until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes.
Add the chicken, cream of celery soup, 1/2 can of water and the frozen mixed vegetables. Stir well and cook until just heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Pour the mixture into a 9-by-13-inch baking dish.
Arrange the tater tots in tightly packed rows to completely cover the top. Do not press the tots into the mixture; just let them sit on top. Bake until the tot topping is browned and the chicken mixture is bubbly, about 30 minutes, then serve.

Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) unsalted butter
4 celery stalks, chopped
3 carrots, chopped
1 leek, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh tarragon
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken meat
One 2-pound bag frozen tater tots

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the celery, carrots, leeks and tarragon, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside. Wipe out the skillet.
Add the remaining 4 tablespoons butter to the skillet over medium heat, sprinkle in the flour and whisk until a paste forms and starts to bubble. Whisk in the chicken broth and continue to cook until it begins to thicken, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the cream and cook until it thickens, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the salt and pepper.
Return the vegetables to the skillet; add the peas and chicken and stir to combine. Sprinkle the frozen tater tots all over the filling to cover completely (there will be extra tater tots; reserve for another use). Bake until the tots are golden brown and the filling is bubbling, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Tater Tot Chicken Pie image

Provided by Sheri in Georgia

Time 1h

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (2 lb) bag frozen tater tots
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 small garlic cloves, pressed
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups diced cooked chicken
1/4 cup milk
1 (10 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
dried thyme
black pepper

Steps:

Preheat oven to 375°.
In large skillet, cook onion and pressed garlic in butter or olive oil over medium high heat until onion is tender.
Add cooked chicken, frozen veggies, undiluted soup, milk, thyme and pepper.
Stir ingredients together and cook over medium heat until hot and bubbly. Stirring occasionally.
Cover and cook an additional 5 minutes; stirring frequently.
Spoon chicken mixture into ungreased 2-quart casserole dish.
Arrange frozen tater tots on top.
Bake 40 minutes or until bubbly and tater tots are slightly browned.
Note: This recipe easily doubles and you can make two. I freeze the extra one with the tater tots on top and then remove and thaw in fridge. Bake as directed above. Also, I sometimes add an extra can of soup and an extra 1/4 cup of milk for a thinner consistency. This would be a personal preference. Also, I add approximately 1/2 tsp of dried thyme and 1/2 tsp of black pepper for one casserole - adaptable to your taste.
