Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 12

Puff pastry topping
4 tablespoons butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
4 to 5 medium carrots, sliced diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick pieces (about 1 1/2 cups)
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup dry white wine
3/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds green beans, trimmed and broken into 1-inch pieces
1 pound yellow squash, quartered lengthwise, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces
3/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon heavy cream
Roasted Chicken

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Unfold 1 thawed sheet (half of a 17.3-ounce box) frozen puff pastry; roll out on a lightly floured surface until about 11 by 15 inches and 1/8 inch thick. Score with a sharp paring knife in several places. Transfer to a baking sheet; refrigerate at least 30 minutes (and up to 3 hours).
  • Meanwhile, heat butter in a large saucepan over medium-low. Add onion and carrots; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add flour; cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add wine, 2 cups water, and tarragon; season generously with salt and pepper. Stir briskly to prevent any lumps from forming.
  • Bring to a boil. Add beans and squash; reduce heat. Cover; simmer, stirring occasionally, until beans are crisp-tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in 3/4 cup cream and chicken; remove from heat. Cover to keep warm.
  • Remove pastry from refrigerator; brush with remaining tablespoon cream. Bake until golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; cut into 8 pieces with a serrated knife.

CHICKEN POTPIE WITH BROWN-BUTTER CRUST



Chicken Potpie with Brown-Butter Crust image

Brown butter turns the crust for this comfort-food classic into a flaky, nutty marvel. Butternut squash and cremini mushrooms give the usual chicken-and-vegetable filling extra oomph.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Pie & Tarts Recipes

Time 3h35m

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 stick unsalted butter
1 1/4 cups unbleached all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 whole chicken (3 1/2 pounds), quartered
2 leeks, white and pale-green parts thinly sliced (2 cups), 6 dark-green tops reserved
3 stalks celery, 1 halved, 2 chopped (3/4 cup)
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, stems removed and reserved, caps coarsely chopped
1/2 small butternut squash, seeded, peeled, and chopped (2 1/2 cups), peelings reserved
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/3 cup unbleached all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as Sauvignon Blanc
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup packed chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
1 large egg white

Steps:

  • Crust:Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high. When it boils, reduce heat to medium; simmer until foamy. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally and scraping bottom of pan, until foam subsides, butter turns golden brown with a nutty aroma, and milk solids separate into brown specks that sink to bottom, 2 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; immediately transfer to a heatproof bowl. Let cool completely. Pour into an ice-cube tray, filling cups halfway. Freeze until cold and firm, about 1 hour. Pulse flour and salt in a food processor to combine. Add chilled brown butter; pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal with some pea-size lumps. Drizzle with 3 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until mixture just begins to hold together. (If mixture crumbles when squeezed in your hand, drizzle with 1 more tablespoon ice water and pulse a few more times.) Transfer to a piece of plastic wrap; knead just until dough holds together. Loosely cover and shape into a disk. Wrap tightly and refrigerate until firm, about 1 hour.
  • Filling:Meanwhile, combine chicken, reserved leek tops, halved celery, mushroom stems, squash peelings, and 1 tablespoon salt in a large pot. Add broth and enough water tojust cover chicken. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and simmer until a thermometer inserted into thickest parts of chicken (without touching bones) registers 160 degrees, about 20 minutes. Transfer chicken to a plate. Strain broth; reserve 2 1/2 cups (refrigerate or freeze remainder for another use).
  • Brown butter for filling in pot. Add sliced leeks and chopped celery, mushroom caps, and squash; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until squash begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour and thyme; cook until darkened slightly and nutty, about 2 minutes. Add wine; boil until mostly evaporated, about 30 seconds. Stir in reserved broth and bring to a boil, then remove from heat. Pull chicken from skin and bones and tear into bite-size pieces. Stir into pot with peas and parsley. Transfer to a 3-quart baking dish. (Filling can be made up to 2 days ahead and refrigerated; stir in peas and parsley just before baking.)
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. On a floured work surface, roll out dough to a diameter slightly larger than baking dish. Center dough over filling; trim edges to a 1/2-inch overhang. Beat egg white with 1 teaspoon water; brush over dough. Cut vents in center. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles, 35 to 45 minutes. Let cool 20 minutes before serving.

13 . set egg wash (1 egg & a splash of milk, whisked)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350°F Sprinkle chicken breasts with olive oil and season with salt & pepper. Bake chicken breasts on a baking sheet for 12-15 minutes, or until just cooked through. Remove from oven, allow to cool slightly, and dice chicken into bite-sized cubes. Set aside.
  • Warm chicken stock on the stove. Meanwhile, in a large pot, melt butter. Add onions and sauté for 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in flour continuously and cook over low heat for 2 minutes. Continue to stir adding chicken stock and simmer for 1 minute. Add RawSpiceBar's Winter Herbs, chicken, carrots, peas, and squash and mix together.
  • Turn up oven to 375°F Roll out two 12 inch diameter pastry rounds. Place the first in a very deep dish pie pan and trim the edges over the lip of the dish. Set trimmings aside as you will need them later. Fill piecrust with pot pie mixture. Brush exposed edge with egg wash and then carefully lie the second piecrust on top of the filling, allowing the edges to hang down. Use the excess trimming from before to roll out and create leaves and décor for the pie as you please. Affix your leaves and brush the entire top of the piecrust with egg wash. Poke 4 holes in the crust with a fork. Place pie on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour. Add aluminum foil to the top if it appears the top is becoming too dark, but you should be okay. Serve hot.
