CHICKLESS POT PIE

Trisha Yearwood's vegetarian take on chicken pot pie is just as decadent without the meat. Although the luscious vegetable filling with peas, carrots and potatoes could be a meal on its own, wrapping it in premade pie dough seals in flavor with a crispy crust.

Time 1h25m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 cup thinly sliced carrots
1 cup frozen green peas
1 cup small diced potatoes
1/2 cup thinly sliced celery
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup butter substitute, such as Earth Balance
1/3 cup unbleached, all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon celery seed
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 3/4 cups vegetable broth
2/3 cup almond or soy milk
Two 9-inch deep dish, unbaked pie crusts, lard free

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • In a medium saucepan, combine the carrots, peas, potatoes and celery. Cover with water, bring to a boil and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, drain and set aside.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the onions in the butter substitute until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, celery seed and garlic powder. Cook for 2 minutes to get the flour taste out. Slowly stir in the broth and then add the milk. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until thick, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the drained vegetables. Roll out one of the unbaked crusts and place in a 9-inch-deep pie plate. Pour the mixture into the bottom crust.
  • Roll out the second pie crust and place on top. Seal the edges and cut small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Bake until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

VEGETARIAN CHICKEN POT PIE



Vegetarian Chicken Pot Pie image

This a hearty dish and easy to prepare. The 'chicken' is a package of (vegetarian) Morning Star Farms Meal Starters 'Chicken Strips'. Great served with mashed potatoes, extra gravy and salad. I used Bisquick for the top but you can use any biscuit recipe you like. It's also good topped with pie crust or even puff pastry if you want to be extravagant with the fat.

Tips:

  • To save time, use store-bought pie crusts or refrigerated biscuits.
  • For a richer flavor, use a combination of chicken broth and white wine to make the sauce.
  • Add a splash of lemon juice to the sauce to brighten the flavors.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. They should be tender but still have a bit of a bite.
  • If you're using fresh herbs, add them at the end of cooking so they retain their flavor.
  • Serve the pot pie hot out of the oven with a side of mashed potatoes or rice.
