In making a homemade pot pie, typically yes, you would cook the chicken first, so you just need to look for the juices bubbling, the veggies should be done by that point. I have never used a meat thermometer in making any kind of meat pot pie.<br><b>References : </b><br> As you are using a pre-packaged pot pie, clearly the first person did not read carefully enough, don’t worry about it as you can compensate by baking slightly longer than the directions (up to five minutes) and watch for the juices bubbling through the holes you poked in the top of it.

But....... if you have already put the pie together, just watch it. It is usually done when the juices are bubbling and boiling over into the bottom of your oven. You may want to put a baking sheet under the pot pie to ensure that your oven doesn't start smoking and it makes cleanup easier.<br><b>References : </b><br> Typically I cook the chicken before putting it into the pot pie, that way there is nothing in there that needs to come to a certain temperature.
