HOLIDAY LEFTOVERS POT PIE



Holiday Leftovers Pot Pie image

I made this yummy potpie recipe this year after Christmas to use up leftover veggies and turkey. We devoured this so fast and it was very easy. I used prepared pie pastry from the store...knowing that I would not want to fuss with a homemade pastry right after the holidays. Next time, I might plan ahead and make an extra pastry when making holiday pies, wrap it and store for making this recipe. PLEASE NOTE: The cook time is accurate, having made this several times now. Baking time may vary slightly depending upon the type of pie pastry you have used.

Provided by HeatherFeather

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 40m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 prepared double crust pie crust (purchased or homemade)
2 cups chicken stock
2 -3 cups leftover cooked turkey or 2 -3 cups leftover cooked chicken, diced
1/4 teaspoon salt (I used Jane's Crazy Mixed Up salt blend, or to taste)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter (the real thing here)
6 tablespoons white lilly all-purpose flour
1 cup skim milk
1 1/2-2 cups cooked carrots (leftovers, I used a can of LeSeuer whole baby carrots)
1 cup corn, cooked (leftover)
1 cup lima beans (whatever you had leftover) or 1 cup green beans, cooked (whatever you had leftover)
1/2 cup cooked ham, diced, leftovers (optional)
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Line a deep dish pie plate (10") with pie pastry and set aside.
  • Preheat oven to 425°F Have ready a cookie sheet lined with foil (you will set this on the rack below your pot pie to catch any drips).
  • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat; Whisk in the flour (it will look dry) until combined.
  • Slowly add some of the chicken stock, whisking to blend well, then adding a bit more, repeating until all is added.
  • Next whisk in the milk, also whisking in and blending well slowly.
  • Cook, whisking occasionally until somewhat thickened,raising heat slightly if needed, approximately 10-15 minutes.
  • Add the cooked meat, vegetables,salt, peppers, cooking about 3 minutes until heated through, stirring, test for seasonings, adding more salt or pepper if needed.
  • Pour into the pie pastry lined pan.
  • Now you have a choice on how to top this:.
  • Choice #1: Roll out the second piece of pie pastry and top the pie, sealing edges, and use a knife to cut out a hole the size of a small coin in the center of the pastry, as well as five vent slits around the pastry.
  • Choice #2: The original recipe suggested using a cookie cutter to cut out 12 leaf shapes out of the top crust and then placing the leaf shapes on top of the pie (instead of having a full top crust) -- up to you if you wish to make it look "fancy" or not.
  • Bake uncovered for 12-15 minutes or until crust is golden and the filling has begun to bubble (if the crust is done, its finished).
  • Let cool a bit before serving.
  • This will be served scooped out with a spoon; don't expect to be able to cut this into neat, firm pieces; the filling is very saucy.

TURKEY POTPIE



Turkey Potpie image

No one knows when people started making pies, but they were common in medieval Middle Eastern and European cooking. "The Oxford Companion to Food" speculates that the English word may come from the word "magpie," because magpies collect random items in the way a pie often houses varied ingredients. It's appropriate, then, that this pie is here to accommodate your Thanksgiving leftovers: turkey, of course, but also leftover roasted squash or sautéed mushrooms in place of peas, chop up half a rutabaga instead of carrot and celery, or a stray leek or shallot instead of onion. Any fresh soft herbs can go in the biscuit topping. For an even simpler version, use canned biscuits arranged on top of the filling as the crust, or defrosted puff pastry with a vent cut in the middle. For a more assertive flavor, use the larger amount of mustard.

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into small chunks
1/4 cup thinly sliced chives
1/4 cup chopped, lightly packed fresh soft herbs, such as parsley, dill or tarragon
3/4 cup buttermilk
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 small red or yellow onion, chopped
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
6 garlic cloves, chopped
1 small or medium carrot, peeled and chopped
2 celery ribs, including leaves, chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon onion powder
2 cups chicken or turkey broth or stock
2 teaspoons to 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Juice of ½ lemon (about 1 generous tablespoon)
1 1/2 cups chopped or shredded cooked turkey or chicken
3/4 cup frozen peas
Black pepper

Steps:

  • Make the biscuit dough: In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Add the cold chunks of butter and toss to coat. Using your fingers, pinch, smear and squeeze the butter into the flour until the butter pieces are the size of a penny or the size of a pea. There's no need for perfection, but the butter should be evenly distributed throughout the flour, and each butter bit should be coated in flour. Stir in the chives and herbs. Pour the buttermilk into the mixture and mix it briefly and gently with a fork, just until a shaggy dough forms. Cover and put the dough in the refrigerator while you make the filling.
  • Make the filling: Heat the oven to 400 degrees. In an oven-safe 10-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion, season lightly with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent and shrunken, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, carrot and celery, and cook, stirring, until fragrant and slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the flour and the onion powder, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour is completely incorporated with the vegetables, about 1 minute. Whisk in the chicken broth, mustard, Worcestershire and lemon juice, and cook, whisking, until the mixture comes to a bubble. Let it cook, whisking once or twice, until it thickens to lightly coat the back of a spoon, about 2 minutes. Stir in the turkey and the peas. Season generously with black pepper; taste and season with additional salt if desired. Remove pan from the heat.
  • Evenly scatter the biscuit dough over the top of the filling, in golfball-size clumps. (Don't press or roll the dough into neat balls, which can make the biscuits tough.) Put the skillet on a foil-lined sheet pan to catch any drips and bake in the oven until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are lightly browned, 35 minutes. (If using canned biscuits or puff pastry, the cook time will be closer to 25 minutes. Check the package directions for a guide.)

  • Allow the pot pie to cool slightly before serving to allow the filling to set.

Conclusion:

This turkey potpie recipe is an excellent way to use up leftover turkey and vegetables from your Christmas dinner. It's hearty, comforting, and easy to make. The perfect meal for a cold winter day. In addition to the tips above, here are some additional recommendations to ensure your turkey potpie turns out perfectly:

  • Make sure the turkey is cooked through before adding it to the potpie filling. You can check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the turkey; it should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit.

  • Season the filling to taste with salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices.
  • Serve the potpie with a dollop of sour cream or mashed potatoes.
