  • 1 can green beans

  3. On a floured board, roll dough about twice as thick as ordinary pie crust (about a 9-inch circle or 8 x 10-inch rectangle).
  4. Cut dough into roughly 2-inch squares.
  5. Remove chicken from broth. Shred chicken, discarding bones and skin.
  6. Stir pot pie squares into boiling broth a few at a time, being careful not to let them stick together. Simmer 6 minutes.
  7. Add chicken and green beans. Simmer for 10–15 minutes.
  8. Remove from heat. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
