Classic American Pot Pie: The Ultimate Pot Pie Recipe

1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup red wine (optional)
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup, undrained
1 (10 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust

Instructions:

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). In a large skillet, brown the ground beef over medium heat. Drain off any excess grease.

Add the onion, carrots, and celery to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the beef and vegetable mixture and stir to coat.

Add the thyme, salt, pepper, and red wine (if using) to the skillet and stir to combine. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.

Stir in the diced tomatoes, cream of chicken soup, and frozen mixed vegetables. Pour the mixture into the unbaked pie crust.

Bake for 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let the pot pie cool for 10 minutes before serving.
