OLD FASHIONED CHICKEN POT PIE IN A PAN
From start-to-finish, this is a "feel good" dinner--it screams "Home Cookin'" and "I love you!"...in sweet tones, of course! Use your bread machine for the dough (like I do) or make from scratch on your own (more brownie points!). Not a "fast" or "simple" recipe...but WELL-WORTH the effort (wait'll you hear the sighs of delight---you'll know what I mean). COOKING time does NOT include bread-machine cycle.

Steps:
- FOR THE CRUST.
- Place all ingredients in your bread-maker (according to manufacturer's directions, mine go in "liquid first"); program for "Dough" or "Manual" then press "Start.".
- The dough will be very sticky at first (like biscuit dough); it will firm up by the end of the kneading time.
- While the dough is kneading, prepare the filling.
- FOR THE FILLING.
- Cook chicken breasts in your normal way (I use water & cooking sherry), reserve broth and separate fat if you can (used in the Gravy).
- Melt butter in hot pan, saute onion & carrots until lightly browned, add celery, saute until limp-ish.
- Dump veggies and chicken into large bowl.
- FOR THE GRAVY.
- Melt butter and fat (USE ALL BUTTER IF YOU DIDN'T SEPARATE THE FAT FROM THE BROTH) in same pan (as veggies), whisk in the flour.
- S-L-O-W-L-Y add the reserved broth, continually whisking out the lumps.
- Whisk in the cream and S & P.
- Turn off the heat, stir in meat & veggies.
- FOR THE GLAZE:.
- In a small bowl, mix egg and water, beating to a frothy mess; set aside.
- ASSEMBLY.
- Lightly spray or butter a 13x9 pan; pour chicken/gravy mixture into this dish.
- Transfer bread dough to a floured work surface; knead by hand five times (count 'em); now let it rest for five minutes (this works, trust me).
- Flour a rolling pin and roll dough into a 10 x 14-inch rectangle; do NOT over-work the dough, light touches are best!
- Use a pizza cutter or knife to cut rolled-out dough into two-inch squares or diamonds if you're really creative!
- Place squares/diamonds on top of the chicken-veg-gravy mixture in the pan--aim for a cobblestone look (overlap them a bit).
- Brush generously with egg glaze (this will give the dough a nice brown--slightly shiny--finish).
- Put into a COLD oven, turn heat to 350 (the dough will rise a bit while the oven heats); bake 35-45 minutes--the dough will be a lovely rich brown color.
- Let rest about 5 minutes before serving.
- With a green salad or a fruit salad on the side you have climbed to the top of the pedestal!

Steps:
- Make the crust: In a food processor, pulse together flour, sugar, and salt. Add butter and pulse until mixture resembles coarse meal, with a few pea-size pieces of butter remaining. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons ice water. Pulse until dough is crumbly but holds together when squeezed (if necessary, add up to 2 tablespoons ice water); do not overmix.
- Form dough into a disk, wrap tightly in plastic, and refrigerate until firm, 1 hour or overnight (or freeze, up to 1 month).
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the filling: In a large pot, melt butter over medium-high. Add onion and carrots and cook until softened, 8 minutes. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add flour and stir to coat vegetables.
- Slowly add broth, whisking constantly until sauce is smooth. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until thickened, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in peas. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in chicken and parsley. Pour filling into a 2-quart baking dish.
- On a floured work surface, roll out dough to 1/8-inch thickness. Place dough over dish and fold overhang inward while pinching to crimp edge. Cut vents in dough. Place dish on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling around edge, 45 to 50 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving.

Tips:
- To make the crust, use a pastry blender or two forks to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs. Then, add the ice water one tablespoon at a time, mixing until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix, as this will make the crust tough.
- For a flakier crust, chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
- When making the filling, be sure to cook the chicken and vegetables until they are tender. This will help to ensure that the pot pie is cooked through.
- To thicken the filling, add a cornstarch slurry. This is made by mixing equal parts cornstarch and water until smooth. Then, stir it into the boiling pot pie filling until it thickens.
- Don't forget to vent the top crust of the pot pie before baking. This will allow steam to escape and prevent the crust from becoming soggy.
- Serve the pot pie hot with a side of your favorite vegetables.
Conclusion:
Old-fashioned chicken pot pie is a delicious and comforting meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. With a flaky crust, tender chicken, and flavorful vegetables, this pot pie is sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
