Time 1h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

Nonstick baking spray with flour
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Kosher salt
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup frozen peas and carrots
1/2 rotisserie chicken, skin discarded and white and dark meat shredded (about 3 cups)
1/4 cup loosely packed flat-leaf parsley, chopped, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 12-cup muffin pan generously with the baking spray.
  • For the popovers: Whisk the milk, flour, eggs, vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl until combined. Drizzle in the melted butter while whisking until combined; let the batter stand for 5 minutes. Add the baking powder; whisk the batter to combine and divide it evenly among the muffin cups (a scant 1/4 cup batter per muffin cup). Bake the popovers until puffed and browned around the edges, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pan about halfway through.
  • For the filling: While the popovers are baking, combine the broth and flour in a medium saucepan and whisk until the flour is dissolved. Place the saucepan over medium heat and whisk continuously until the mixture comes to a boil; continue to whisk until the mixture is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 4 to 5 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and whisk in 2 tablespoons of the Parmesan, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the peas and carrots, then the chicken; cover to keep warm.
  • To assemble: When the popovers are done, turn them out of the pan, using a small spatula if necessary. Arrange 2 popovers on each of six plates or bowls and top with the chicken filling, dividing evenly among the popovers. Garnish with chopped parsley and sprinkle on the remaining 2 tablespoons of grated Parmesan.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes     Bread Recipes

Time 45m

Yield Makes 6 large popovers or 10 small popovers

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 large eggs, room temperature
1 1/2 cups whole milk, room temperature
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 1/4 teaspoons coarse salt
Vegetable-oil nonstick cooking spray

Steps:

  • If eggs and milk are cold, before combining, submerge whole eggs in warm water 10 minutes and heat milk until just warm. Preheat oven to 450 degrees with a nonstick popover pan on rack in lowest position.
  • After you have combined eggs and milk in a large bowl, whisk together until very frothy. This should only take about 1 minute. Have the flour and salt measured out and ready to go.
  • Add flour and salt to egg mixture. We tested out a blender and an electric stand mixer when making the batter, but concluded that whisking by hand produces the most tender, airy popovers.
  • Whisk flour and salt into egg mixture just until batter is the consistency of heavy cream with some small lumps remaining. See those air bubbles? They are what will cause the popovers to rise.
  • Remove popover pan from oven and coat with cooking spray. If you prefer a standard muffin tin, only coat (and fill) the outer cups; they get better circulation in the oven. (Also, reduce baking time by 5 minutes.)
  • Fill popover cups about three-quarters full with batter. Bake 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees. Continue to bake until golden brown and dry to the touch, about 20 minutes more.
  • Popovers lose their crunch if they linger in the pan, so turn them out on a wire rack immediately and poke a small opening in the side of each with a paring knife to let the steam escape. Serve right away.

Tips:

  • Utilize Fresh Ingredients: For optimal flavor, use fresh, high-quality ingredients. Fresh herbs, vegetables, and chicken will elevate the dish.
  • Prep Work: Before starting, measure and prepare all ingredients. This ensures a smooth cooking process and prevents scrambling.
  • Perfect Pan: Choose a heavy-bottomed skillet for even heat distribution and to prevent burning. A well-seasoned cast-iron skillet is a great option.
  • Seasoning: Season the chicken generously with salt, pepper, and any desired spices. This adds flavor and enhances the natural taste of the chicken.
  • Cook Wisely: Cook the chicken over medium heat to ensure it cooks evenly and doesn't dry out. Adjust the heat as needed to maintain a gentle simmer.
  • Creamy Sauce: To achieve a rich and creamy sauce, use a combination of all-purpose flour, butter, and milk. Whisk continuously to prevent lumps and adjust the consistency with additional milk or flour as needed.
  • Serve Fresh: Serve the creamy chicken pop overs immediately after preparation to enjoy their warm, fluffy texture and flavorful sauce.

Conclusion:

In summary, these creamy chicken pop overs offer a delightful combination of flavors and textures that will please any palate. By following the tips and recipe instructions carefully, you can create a dish that is both comforting and elegant. Whether served as a main course or a side dish, these pop overs are sure to be a hit. So, gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and embark on a culinary journey that will leave you craving more.
