Time 1h

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

¼ cup butter
1 small onion, chopped
3 celery ribs, chopped
3 carrots, chopped
⅔ cup frozen peas
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
¼ teaspoon dried thyme
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups lower-sodium chicken broth
⅔ cup half-and-half cream

1 egg yolk, beaten
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

TURKEY POTPIE WITH A BISCUIT CRUST



Turkey Potpie with a Biscuit Crust image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons (30 grams) olive oil
1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1 large carrot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups (290 grams) fresh English peas
1 cup (165 grams) fresh corn kernels, from about 2 cobs
1 teaspoon (1 gram) dried thyme
1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
2 cups (480 milliliters) chicken broth
1/2 cup (120 milliliters) heavy cream
2 cups roast turkey meat picked off bone and broken into bite-size pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour, plus for dusting the work surface
1 teaspoon (6 grams) salt
1 tablespoon (11 grams) sugar
1 tablespoon (15 grams) baking powder
1/2 cup (100 grams) vegetable shortening, frozen, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup (100 grams) unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup (240 milliliters) low-fat buttermilk
1 large egg
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, minced
Egg wash (1 egg whisked with 2 tablespoons water)
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • To make the filling: In a large (14-inch) ovenproof skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, onion, carrot, and garlic and saute until soft.
  • Stir in the peas, corn and thyme. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and then add the chicken broth and cream. Stir to distribute the flour and the liquids. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey and add salt and pepper to taste. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
  • To make the biscuit top crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk for thirty seconds to combine and evenly distribute the leavening. Add the shortening and butter and toss to coat the fat a bit with the flour. Using your fingertips, gently work the fats into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with some pea-size chunks of fat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg, and add this to the flour mixture. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Then, gently work through the mixture with your hands to separate any wet patches and bring the dough together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, sprinkle with the minced thyme and knead gently until it just holds together. Pat it into a rough 1/2-inch-tall disk and cut it into 7 biscuits using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter. (Bake off the scraps and use for croutons in the Broccoli Salad recipe.)
  • To assemble: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Top the filling in the skillet with the biscuit rounds. Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle them with sea salt.
  • Bake the potpie for 25 to 30 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown.

For stock:
Carcass and skin from a 12- to 14-pound roast turkey
10 cups water
For filling:
1 medium onion, coarsely chopped
2 large carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 celery ribs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large parsnip (peeled), cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 pound mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups roast turkey meat, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 (10-ounce) package frozen baby peas, thawed
For biscuit crust:
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 cup coarsely grated extra-sharp Cheddar
1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
3/4 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups well-shaken buttermilk

Steps:

  • Make stock:
  • Separate parts of carcass and put, along with skin, in an 8-quart pot. Cover bones with water and simmer until liquid is reduced by one third, about 1 1/2 hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Set aside 3 1/2 cups stock (reserve remainder for another use).
  • Make filling:
  • Cook onion, carrots, celery, parsnip, and thyme in butter with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a 12-inch-wide shallow pot (3- to 4-quart), covered, over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are almost tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook, uncovered, stirring, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with flour and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in stock (3 1/2 cups), scraping up any brown bits, and bring to a boil, stirring, then simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in turkey, peas, and salt and pepper to taste. Reheat over low heat just before topping with biscuit crust.
  • Make biscuit crust and bake pie:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper into a medium bowl. Add cheeses and toss to coat. Blend in butter with a pastry blender or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and stir just until a dough forms. Drop biscuit dough onto filling in 8 large mounds, leaving spaces between biscuits.
  • Bake until biscuits are puffed and golden brown and filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

1985 CHICKEN PIE WITH BISCUIT CRUST



1985 Chicken Pie with Biscuit Crust image

Categories     Chicken     Potato     Bake     Winter     Chill     Simmer     Boil     Gourmet

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 23

For the filling
4 cups chicken broth
3 carrots, cut crosswise into 1/4-inch slices
3/4 pound red potatoes, quartered lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
2 large ribs of celery, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
2 1/2 cups cubed cooked chicken (the meat from a 3-pound chicken)
1 onion, chopped
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, crumbled
1/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg, or to taste
1/2 cup minced fresh parsley leaves
For the biscuit crust
1 1/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons double-acting baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into bits
2 tablespoons cold vegetable shortening, cut into bits
1/3 cup grated sharp Cheddar
1 large egg
about 1/3 cup buttermilk
an egg wash made by beating 1 large egg yolk with 1 tablespoon milk

Steps:

  • Make the filling:
  • In a saucepan bring the broth to a boil, add the carrots, the potatoes, and the celery, and simmer the vegetables, uncovered, for 10 to 15 minutes, or until they are tender. Transfer the vegetables with a slotted spoon to a large bowl, reserving the broth, and add the chicken to the bowl. In another saucepan cook the onion in the butter over moderately low heat, stirring, until it is softened, add the flour, and cook the roux, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add 3 cups of the reserved broth in a stream, whisking, reserving any remaining broth for another use, and bring the mixture to a boil, whisking. Add the thyme and simmer the sauce, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Stir in the nutmeg, the parsley, and salt and pepper to taste, pour the sauce over the chicken mixture, and stir the mixture gently until it is just combined. Transfer the mixture to a 2-quart shallow baking dish or divide it among four 2-cup shallow baking dishes. The filling may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Bring the mixture to room temperature before continuing with the recipe.
  • Make the biscuit crust:
  • Into a bowl sift together the flour, the baking powder, the baking soda, and the salt, add the butter and the shortening, and blend the mixture until it resembles meal. Add the Cheddar and toss the mixture. Into a liquid measuring cup break the egg, add enough of the buttermilk to measure a total of 1/2 cup, and beat the mixture with a fork. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture, stirring until the mixture just forms a dough, gather the dough into a ball, and on a floured surface pat it out 1/2 inch thick. Cut out as many rounds as possible with a 2-inch fluted round cutter dipped in flour, gathering the scraps and patting the dough out again in the same manner.
  • Arrange the rounds on the chicken mixture, brush the tops of the rounds with the egg wash, and prick the rounds with a fork. Bake the pie in the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven for 15 to 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and golden and the filling is bubbling.

TURKEY POT PIE WITH CHEDDAR BISCUIT CRUST



Turkey Pot Pie With Cheddar Biscuit Crust image

From Gourmet Magazine, November 2007, page 208. Made this for lunch New Year's Day and it was a hit. Substitute chicken if you wish. If you don't feel like messing with the vegetables, use a thawed bag of frozen stew veggies or mixed veggies. Works great. I am not including the stock recipe from the magazine as it is a standard carcass/skin one that doesn't need explanation. I cut the recipe in half and cooked it in an 11-inch enameled cast iron frying pan. Works great. If you are feeling adventurous, sub. chunks of beef, beef stock and some red wine, maybe some garlic and a shot of Worcestershire and make a beef pot pie. If you try it, let me know how it turns out.

SAUSAGE AND GRAVY PIE WITH BISCUIT CRUST



Sausage and Gravy Pie with Biscuit Crust image

Rethink sausage gravy and biscuits with this clever one-pan breakfast pie. Biscuits form the crust, and crumbled sausage and cheese are baked into a savory egg custard.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, plus more for greasing
4 pieces prepared biscuit dough (about 8 ounces)
8 ounces breakfast sausage, casings removed
1 cup half-and-half
1 large whole egg plus 1 large egg yolk
1 scallion, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 ounces white Cheddar or Monterey Jack cheese, shredded (about 1/2 cup)

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate, including the lip, with butter.
  • Gently roll each piece of biscuit dough out to about two times its original size. Stretch and press the biscuit dough, one piece at a time, into the pie plate, until you have covered the bottom and sides, pinching together the seams where pieces meet. Prick the bottom with a fork many times. Bake, until the sides are lightly browned and the bottom forms a crust, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove to a wire rack and let cool. Leave the oven on.
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat and add the sausage. Cook, stirring and breaking the sausage up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through, about 6 minutes. Pour off any excess grease and add the half-and-half to the pan, scraping up any bits that may have stuck to the bottom. Remove from the heat.
  • Whisk the egg and egg yolk together in a medium bowl and slowly add the sausage mixture in batches, whisking constantly, to incorporate. Stir in the scallions and season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  • Scatter the cheese over the biscuit crust, pressing the cheese over any holes that may have formed during baking. Pour the sausage custard over the cheese and bake until the custard is set, 18 to 20 minutes. Serve hot.

Yield 8-12

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 leeks, cut into slices
3 carrots cut into 1" pieces
3 parsnips cut into 1" pieces
1 celery root, peeled and cut into 1" cubes
1 butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1" cubes
1 acorn squash, peeled and cut into 1" cubes
8 oz portobello mushrooms, cut into thick slices
3-4 TBS olive oil
3-4 TBS butter
2 cups all purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
3/4 tsp salt
6 TBS cold unsalted butter, cubed and refrigerated
3/4 cup cream or milk
3/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
2 tsp minced garlic
1/4 tsp black pepper
4 cups vegetable stock
2 TBS fresh or 1 TBS dried marjoram

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400º. Melt 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large sauté pan. Brown the leek on medium high heat. When leek is soft and turning brown, transfer it to a baking dish. Next, brown the carrots and parsnips together, adding more butter if needed. Season with salt and pepper and place them in the baking dish. Add more butter and oil, then brown the celery root. Season it with salt and pepper and add to the baking dish. Turn the heat to high, add more butter and oil, and brown the squash. Season with salt and pepper, and place in baking dish. Sauté the mushrooms and add them to baking dish. Gently mix items together. Pour in 4 cups of vegetable stock and add the marjoram. Cover with foil and bake at 400º for 30-45 minutes, until veggies are tender. While veggies bake, prepare biscuit topping. Whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt. Using a pastry blender or two knives, cut in the cubed, cold butter. You are looking for a texture that resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Add in the cream, cheese, garlic and pepper. Mix until it comes together. Turn it onto a board and knead a bit, just until you can form a ball. Roll the dough out and cut rectangles, or drop dough onto veggies, or cover whole baking dish (but leave a vent hole). Lay your biscuits on top of the vegetables and return to oven for 20-25 minutes. You are looking for the biscuits to be puffed and golden. Let the whole dish rest for 10 minutes before you serve.
