How did chicken pot pie get its name while it only contains one of those ingredients?

Nobody sells a BLT with no bacon.

Maybe for the same reason Coca-Cola has no Coca?

Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it "chicken pot pie", which of course in German means a whales vagina.

If you ever go to a Fresh Market, where they have overpriced foo-foo food, check out their chicken pot pies in the deli section. It's friggin awesome.

maybe because chicken dutch oven pie didn't have the same ring to it......

pie: A baked dish of fruit, or meat and vegetables, typically with a top and base of pastry.
