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.

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
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 cups cooked chicken, cut into bite-size pieces
1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated flaky-style biscuits (such as Pillsbury Grands®)
1 egg yolk, beaten
1 tablespoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook the onion, celery, and carrots until the celery and carrots are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, parsley, thyme and flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the vegetables and begins to fry, about 5 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, and mix in the chicken meat.
  • Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 2-quart baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with water; brush egg yolk on the biscuits.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will add flavor and texture to your pot pie. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and corn.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many vegetables, they will not cook evenly. Leave some space between the vegetables so that they can cook through.
  • Use a thickener. This will help to thicken the sauce in your pot pie. You can use flour, cornstarch, or arrowroot powder. If you are using flour, be sure to cook it in a little bit of butter or oil before adding it to the pot pie filling.
  • Bake the pot pie until the crust is golden brown. This will ensure that the crust is cooked through and that the filling is bubbly.
  • Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out when you cut into it.
