Pennsylvania Dutch Chicken Pot Pie image

Amish Chicken Pot Pie is a staple in the Pennsylvania Dutch community. Brothy and full of flavor, the homemade noodles add texture and body to this stew. Once you try it, you'll never want gravy-style crusted pot pie again!

Time 1h30m

Yield Serves: 6

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 Cup & 1 T All-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 Egg
¼ Cup Whole Milk
1 T Unsalted butter, melted
Pinch of salt
2 Bell & Evans Bone-in Split Chicken Breasts
8 Cups Chicken broth
4 Medium Yukon gold potatoes, peeled & large diced
3 Medium Carrots, peeled & large diced
2 Large Stalks Celery, diced
1 Medium Sweet Onion, peeled & cut into quarters
Salt & pepper, to taste
Pinch, ground turmeric

Steps:

  • Blend egg with milk and melted butter. Add liquids to flour and salt. Mix until combined being careful not to overmix. Using extra flour, generously sprinkle dough on both sides to avoid sticking. Roll noodle dough to about 1/8" thickness. Cut into pieces/squares approximately sized 2" by 2". No need to be perfect. Lay pieces onto flour dusted wax or parchment paper. Cover and set aside until needed. NOTE: Feel free to double the noodle recipe if you prefer extra. In the event you do, increase quantity of broth to 10 cups.
  • In a large stock pot add chicken broth, chicken and a pinch of turmeric. Bring to a slow simmer. Cover and cook for approximately 30-40 minutes until chicken is thoroughly cooked to an internal of 170°F as measured by a meat thermometer. Remove chicken from broth and allow to cool. Once cooled, remove skin and pull meat from the bone into large pieces. To the stock pot add potatoes, carrots, celery and onion. Cook for 10 minutes uncovered at a low simmer. Bring to a boil and slowly add noodles piece by piece. NOTE: A rapid boil is key when adding noodles, otherwise they tend to stick to one another. Once all noodles have been added, reduce heat to a low simmer. Cover and cook for approximately 20 minutes until vegetables & noodles are tender. Uncover, add chicken and continue to cook on a low simmer for another 20 minutes. NOTE: This recipe gets better with time Season with salt & pepper, to taste. Add parsley as garnish.

Categories     Chicken Soups

Time 1h40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

4-5 chicken breasts or thighs if you prefer
1 c chopped onion
1 tsp celery seed
3 large potatoes, peeled and cut into bite sized chunks
4 carrots, peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch slices
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley or dried parsley flakes
5 chicken bouillon cubes
2 1/2 c flour
3/4 stick butter, softened
1/3 c (approximately) milk
salt and pepper to taste
1 egg

Steps:

  • 1. For the stock: Fill a large Dutch oven with about 2 quarts of water. Add the chopped onion, celery seed, garlic powder, parsley, bouillon cubes and the chicken.
  • 2. Bring to a boil, cover with lid, and then turn down to simmer for about an hour, or until chicken can be easily removed from the bones.
  • 3. When chicken is done, remove from the pot, reserving all of the stock.
  • 4. Turn off the burner until after the noodles are made (recipe follows). Remove chicken from bones and cut into small chunks and set aside.
  • 5. For the noodles: Pour flour into a good sized mixing bowl and add softened butter and egg.
  • 6. Add about 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper (or to taste). Begin mixing using your hands, and then add milk.
  • 7. Completely mix dough with your hands until you reach desired consistency (you may need to add a little flour or a little more milk, depending...dough should not be sticky to the touch. If too sticky, add a little flour until just right).
  • 8. Flour your surface, then roll out dough with rolling pin to about 1/4 inch thick.
  • 9. Using a sharp knife, cut slices the entire way across, and then the other direction, to form square noodles about 1-1/2" square.
  • 10. Bring stock to a rolling boil, add potatoes and carrots, and a handful of the noodles at a time. Stir soup after each addition of noodles to help keep them from sticking together.
  • 11. Cover again with lid, and let cook for about a half hour to 45 minutes, or until noodles are cooked completely through and the vegetables are done.
  • 12. When all is finished, add the chicken once again, to heat through, and serve. (Your broth will thicken up a little after you add your noodles.)

CHICKEN POT PIE - PA DUTCH STYLE



Chicken Pot Pie - PA Dutch Style image

There are so many PA Dutch recipes, but I think Chicken Pot Pie (Bot Boi) would be at the top of the list for yumminess & popularity. This is how I make mine. I no longer make my own pot pie dough noodles, simply because my kitchen is so small. If you can't find pot pie noodles & don't want to make your own, you certainly could...

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 3h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 roaster chicken
5 yukon gold potatoes (i don't peel them)
1 onion
2 celery stalks
2-3 bouillon cubes
1 container chicken base (i use knorr's homestyle stock)
12-16 oz pot pie noodles
3 pinches of saffron threads
salt & pepper
1 bunch fresh curly parsley
1 can cream of chicken soup (optional)
1 pinch nutmeg

Steps:

  • 1. I roast my chicken the day or night before with onion & celery stalks & about 1 cup of water, then I keep adding more water. Then, I refrigerate the broth & chicken separately until next day. Remove the broth & skim any fat off the top.
  • 2. In a large stockpot, add the broth & fill the pot up with water until it's a little over half-way full. Add 2 bouillon cubes, some salt & pepper, pinch of nutmeg, & saffron pinches. I put the onion back in to the broth to continue adding flavor, too. Add the chicken base or stock and heat this over medium for about an hour.
  • 3. Add the can of cream of chicken soup (this is not pure PA Dutch, but my friend did this one time & it made the broth amazing, so now I always do). Heat some more & then taste the broth. I will add more water or more bouillon, or pepper, as I see the need. I don't add more salt until the very end if it needs, as it normally does not.
  • 4. Discard the onion. Add the potatoes & carrots. Keep cooking over medium heat for about another hour. Get your chicken ready by removing skin & pulling meat off the bone. I use all the dark meat & one breast & save the other breast for later. When the carrots & taters are getting fork tender, add the chicken. Get this to a low boil now.
  • 5. When boiling, add the pot pie noodles. Cook on boiling with lid on for about 10-15 minutes. Stir in chopped parsley. Then turn off heat & just leave the lid on until you're ready to dig in! Use a fork or a spoon or both & make sure you drink that yummy broth leftover in your bowl. Enjoy!!!
  • 6. If you want to make your own pot pie noodles, there are recipes all over the web. This is one from an old PA Dutch cookbook: 1 1/4 cups of flour; 1 egg shell of broth or water; 1/2 tsp. of baking powder; 1 egg; pinch of salt. Mix the dry ingredients. Then add egg & water (or broth). Roll this out & cut into squares. Drop into boiling broth for 20 minutes.

PENNSYLVANIA DUTCH-STYLE CHICKEN POTPIE



Pennsylvania Dutch-Style Chicken Potpie image

Categories     Chicken     Potato     Kid-Friendly     Celery     Carrot     Winter     Gourmet     Small Plates

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 10

a 3 1/2 pound chicken
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cold vegetable shortening
1 teaspoon salt
1 large egg, beaten lightly
2 carrots, sliced thin
1 rib of celery, sliced thin
1 onion, minced
1 pound boiling potatoes (about 4)
1/3 cup finely chopped fresh parsley

Steps:

  • Season the cavity of the chicken with salt and pepper, put the chicken in a kettle just large enough to hold it, and add 14 cups water. Bring the water to a boil, simmer the chicken, covered, skimming the froth, for 45 minutes or less, or until it is tender, and transfer it to a large bowl. When the chicken is cool enough to handle, discard the skin and bones, cut the meat into bite-size pieces, and chill it, covered. Measure the stock remaining in the kettle and boil it until it is reduced to about 10 cups. Strain the stock through a sieve into a bowl, let it cool, uncovered, and chill it, covered, overnight.
  • In a bowl blend together the flour, the shortening, and the salt. In a small bowl whisk together the egg and 2/3 cup cold water, add the mixture until it forms a soft but not sticky dough. Halve the dough, keeping half of it under an inverted bowl, roll out the other half on a heavily floured surface into a 12- by 10-inch rectangle, and cut it with a pastry wheel into 2-inch squares. Transfer the squares to a lightly floured baking sheet and roll and cut out the remaining dough in the same manner.
  • Discard the fat from the stock, return the stock to the kettle, and bring it to a boil with the chicken, the carrots, the celery, the onion, the potatoes, peeled and sliced thin, and salt and pepper to taste. Add the noodle squares, a few at a time, stirring gently, simmer the mixture, covered, for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the vegetables and noodles are tender, and stir in the parsley.
