Can you tell me what am I doing wrong? When I cook biscuits, muffins, cookies etc. they are either perfect on top and bottom but uncooked im the middle, or too brown on the bottom and uncooked in the middle and slightly uncooked on the top? I've adjusted racks, etc but still get same results.

Chicken Pot Pie I
Over the years I have tried to make homemade chicken pot pies and have never liked how any of them turned out. Recently I was given several boxes of the pre-made pie crusts and I created my own recipe that turned out so good the kids ate every drop!
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Spray a 13x9x2" baking dish with non-stick spray.
Lay three of the pie crusts in your dish the best you can to cover the bottom, sides and enough to leave a 1/4"-1/2" lip on the edge of the dish. Press seems together to make one large crust.
Place one cup of the meat into the dish, spreading around the bottom. Salt and pepper to taste, and sprinkle some garlic powder over chicken, reserving some for top layer. Add vegetables spreading them over the chicken.
Add other cup of chicken to top of vegetables and season with remaining salt, pepper and garlic powder. On the stove, melt two sticks of butter or margarine and let cook until it starts to turn golden.
Add the flour and using a wire whisk, stir quickly to remove any lumps. Add 1 1/2-2 c. of milk until it is the consistancy you like. Remember, oven cooking time will thicken it some.
Take remaining pie crust and fold into fourths and cutting on the folds. Place one on each end on top of the chicken and place the other two in the center. You will have gaps, but this is perfect for ventilation. Fold the bottom crust edges over the top, forming the edge.
Place in preheated oven for 45-60 mins. or until crust is golden.

Directions
Spray 10 inch non-stick skillet with cooking spray and set over medium heat; add onion and garlic and cook, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes and reserved liquid, the mushrooms, pepper and seasonings and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce thickens, 5 to 8 minutes. Transfer 1/2 of sauce to medium mixing bowl, reserving remaining sauce; add chicken to bowl and mix thoroughly; set aside.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Add 1 tortilla and heat, turning once, just until tortilla becomes flexible, about 1 minute. Carefully remove tortilla. Spread 1/2 oz. cheese along center, top with 1/4 of chicken mixture and roll to enclose. Set seam-side down in 8x8x2 inch baking dish; repeat procedure for remaining tortillas. Pour reserved sauce over enchiladas, top with remaining cheese and bake 15 to 20 minutes. Top with olives and yogurt.
