The chicken pie was a little bland. I think it needed more seasoning.

I'm not a big fan of chicken pie, but this recipe was actually really good. The crust was flaky and the filling was flavorful.

This is the best chicken pie I've ever had! The crust was flaky and golden brown, and the filling was rich and creamy. I will definitely be making this again.
