There’s nothing more comforting on a cold night than a creamy chicken stew (with plenty of vegetables, if that’s your jam), tucked under a flaky, buttery crust. But from that basic chicken pot-pie template, there are many ways to riff on it, including curry spices in the stew, phyllo instead of pastry, and even (gasp) replacing the pastry with mashed potatoes.

Chicken Pot Pie with Phyllo Crust
This recipe satisfies my most intense pot-pie yearnings, but it's a bit more sophisticated than the familiar food of my childhood.

Chicken-Vegetable Pot Pie with Puff Pastry Crust
As delicious as this pot pie is, it's hard to believe so much of it comes from the freezer section of the supermarket. Frozen puff pastry makes a delicious, light, and crisp crust with no mixing and no mess. (For the best results, let the frozen pastry thaw in the refrigerator overnight before using it.) Frozen pearl onions eliminate fussy peeling, and frozen artichoke hearts mean not having to deal with the prickly choke.
