Could I just make a roux with butter and flour then add milk/half and half then the soup? I had a big batch of frozen broth. It already has the vegetables and chicken in it. I want it like the filling for pot pie? Ideas?

I'd do the roux, then soup, then milk/cream.

You can also try this quick short cut roux, where you just mash up some butter with flour in a small bowl and then add in your hot liquid from the soup. Whisk those together till you get a gravy consistency and then add it to the soup mixture. I do it in two small batches and it really thickens up. Here are better instructions...

Also I made those pot pies this week and they were insanely delicious!!

Thanks everyone, it came out really yummy but not thick enough. Leftovers were perfect though!

I tried this technique tonight, and it was really good. I'm definitely going to be using this technique more. I've never had a problem with rouxs, but this seems easier to control and better tasting than a cornstarch slurry.

This recipe was really good! I used leftover pulled pork in place of the chicken and the crust was really good!
