Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 pound all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 sticks butter, cut into pieces and chilled
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups sweet potato puree (sweet potatoes roasted, peeled and pureed in food processor)
1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium Spanish onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 to 5 cups whole milk, heated
3/4 pound cremini mushrooms, quartered and sauteed until golden brown
2 medium turnips, peeled, cut into medium dice, blanched and drained
2 medium carrots, peeled, cut into matchsticks (about 2-inches long by 1/4-inch thick)
12 frozen pearl onions, blanched and drained
1 cup frozen peas, blanched and drained
1 smoked chicken (about 3 pounds) meat shredded, bones discarded
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl combine flour with salt, and pepper. Cut in the butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture looks crumbly.
  • In another bowl combine eggs, milk, and sweet potato puree. Add to the flour mixture and stir gently until combined. Don't overmix!
  • Divide dough into quarters. On a lightly floured surface roll each piece into a circle about 1/8-inch thick. Cut the circles to fit the size of the serving bowls. Brush with egg wash and bake on a parchment lined baking sheet until lightly golden brown. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onions and cook until soft. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in the flour and cook until deep golden brown. Slowly whisk in the hot milk and cook until thickened. Reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. If the mixture is too thick, thin with a little extra milk.
  • Add the mushrooms, turnips, carrots, onions, peas and chicken to the sauce and gently fold to combine and heat through. Season the sauce with salt and pepper and stir in the parsley.
  • Spoon the hot filling into bowls and top with a circle of the baked sweet potato dough.

I would love to try this recipe, but I don't have a smoker. Do you have any suggestions for how I could cook the chicken without one?

Overall, I thought this recipe was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I found this recipe to be a bit too time-consuming. I think there are easier ways to make a pot pie.

The filling was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would have added more spices.

This recipe was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred a traditional pie crust.
