GLUTEN-FREE CHICKEN POT PIE
Remember those frozen chicken pot pies so many of us ate when we were kids, the ones we popped in the oven, then pulled back the tin foil to find a bubbling chicken sauce around buttery pie crust? Let me tell you. This one is much better. You can fill it with fresh vegetables in season, chicken that has been browned in your kitchen and an all-butter crust without any gluten.

Steps:
- Make the dough: Put the flour and salt into a large food processor. Pulse them together until the flour is fluffy and aerated.
- Add the butter. Pulse ten times. The flour and butter should look like a sandy mixture with chunks of butter still visible. Pour in 1/2 cup of the water. Pulse five times. The dough should look moistened but not wet, and gathering but not collected into a ball. If there are any dry patches of flour remaining, add more water 1 tablespoon at a time. The final dough should look a bit like cheese curds.
- Form the dough into discs: Dump the curds of dough onto a clean, cool surface. (A piece of parchment paper works well here.) Gather them loosely into a pile. Put the heel of your hand on the top portion of the pile and press down and away from you. Repeat this with the entire pile until you have a smooth pie dough.
- Cut the pie dough in half. Take one half and press the dough onto itself, as though you are closing the page of a book; repeat with the other side. Form the pie dough into a smooth disc and cover with plastic wrap. Repeat with the other half of the dough. Let the discs of dough rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
- Roll out the dough: Take the pie dough disks out of the refrigerator and let them sit out until they have come to a chilly room temperature, about 15 minutes or so. Put one disc of dough between two lightly greased pieces of parchment paper. Pat down the disk and put the rolling pin on top of it. Now, imagine that the dough is the face of a clock. Roll out once at 12 o'clock. Then, lift the pin and roll at 12:10. Moving in "ten-minute" increments, roll out the dough to slightly larger than your pie pan.
- Lift the top paper, put a 9-inch pie pan on top of the pie dough, and flip it over. Carefully, strip away the parchment paper. Go slowly. Voila! Pat the dough down into the pan. If some of the pie dough has stuck onto the parchment, no need to worry. Simply peel it off and pat into the rest of the pie dough.
- Roll out the second disc of pie dough in a similar fashion. Put the pie pan and the top piece of dough in the freezer while you make the chicken filling.
- Sear the chicken: Set a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Season the chicken with salt and pepper. Pour in 2 tablespoons of the oil. Put half of the chicken into the hot oil. Let it cook for 2 to 3 minutes, then stir it up and cook until it is evenly browned. Remove the cooked chicken from the oil and repeat with the remaining chicken.
- Cook the vegetables: Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil in the Dutch oven. Add the mushrooms, carrot, onion and garlic and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft and translucent, about 7 minutes. Add the thyme and cook until it is fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the potato.
- Make the gravy: Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly. Pour in the chicken stock, stirring it into the vegetables. Bring the stock to a boil and then turn the heat down to simmer. Simmer the stock, stirring occasionally, until it begins to thicken, about 15 minutes.
- Finish the filling: Add the asparagus and edamame to the vegetable mixture. Stir until they are fully incorporated. Taste the filling and season with salt and pepper if needed.
- Fill the pie: Let the filling cool to room temperature. Pour it into the prepared pie pan. Allow the remaining piece of pie dough too come to a chilly room temperature.
- Top the pie: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Flip the pie dough on top of the pie. If the dough sticks and breaks, just pat the pieces together. Working with slightly wet fingers, crimp the edges of the pie dough together.
- Bake the pie: Put the pot pie onto a parchment-lined sheet pan to catch the drippings during baking. Bake the pot pie until the crust is golden brown and the filling is piping hot and starting to ooze out of the pie crust, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Cool the pie: Allow the pie to cool to room temperature. Serve!
- Pour all the flours into a large container. (Restaurant supply stores sell large plastic containers that fit this purpose well. You could also use a large glass jar.) Shake and shake and shake harder until all the flours have become one color.

Steps:
- For crust:
- Mix flour, salt, and baking powder in a food processor. Add cubed butter and shortening and process until mixture resembles coarse meal with some pea-size lumps. With machine running, add 1/2 cup ice water and process, adding more water by teaspoonfuls if dry, until dough forms. Form dough into a ball; flatten into a disk. Wrap in plastic and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Place chilled dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out to a 12x9 1/2" rectangle, about 1/4" thick. Place on prepared sheet and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Chill. DO AHEAD: Can be made 6 hours ahead. Keep chilled.
- For chicken:
- Preheat oven to 400°. Place carrots, onion, and leek on a rimmed baking sheet and roast until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a large pot fitted with a lid. Add chicken, breast side down, celery, thyme sprigs, wine, salt, and peppercorns to pot. Add 8 cups water to cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 10 minutes. Remove pot from heat, cover, and poach chicken until cooked through, about 35 minutes.
- Remove chicken from pot and set aside until cool. Reserve broth. Shred meat; discard skin and bones. Set a large strainer over another pot. Strain broth into clean pot. Stir in tomato paste. Return to medium heat and simmer, uncovered, until reduced to 5 cups, about 40 minutes. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill uncovered until cool. Cover chicken and broth separately; keep chilled. Rewarm broth before continuing.
- For filling:
- Place dried chanterelles in a small bowl and cover with 1 cup hot water. Let steep for 10 minutes; set aside. Reserve soaking liquid. Cook carrots in a large saucepan of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a medium bowl. Add peas to saucepan; cook for 1 minute; transfer to bowl with carrots. Add onions to saucepan and cook until crisp-tender, about 2 minutes. Remove from pot and set aside; let cool. Peel onions.
- In a large heavy saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Cook over medium-low heat, whisking constantly, until golden brown, about 10 minutes. Whisk in herbs and warm broth from chicken. Using a slotted spoon, transfer chanterelles to saucepan. Pour in soaking liquid, leaving sediment behind. Simmer for 20 minutes.
- Set a strainer over another large pot. Strain broth into pot; discard solids. Add chicken, carrots, peas, onions, mushrooms, and potatoes. Bring to a simmer. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill uncovered until cool; cover and keep chilled. Rewarm before continuing.
- Preheat oven to 400°F. Spoon filling into an 11x8x2" or 2 1/2-quart round baking dish. (Add pie bird, if using.) Top with pastry, pinching edges to seal. If not using pie bird, cut a 1" slit in center of crust for steam to vent. Brush pastry with beaten egg, and sprinkle with sea salt and pepper, if desired.
- Place pot pie on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 45 minutes.

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your pot pie a more flavorful and nutritious filling. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, peas, and corn.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through, about 10-12 minutes.
- Make sure the sauce is thick enough. The sauce should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. If it is too thin, add a little more cornstarch or flour.
- Use a good quality pie crust. A good quality pie crust will make a big difference in the overall flavor of your pot pie. If you have time, make your own pie crust. Otherwise, you can use a store-bought pie crust.
- Bake the pot pie until the crust is golden brown. This will take about 30-35 minutes.
Conclusion:
This gluten-free chicken pot pie is a delicious and comforting meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover chicken. The pie is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you are looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this gluten-free chicken pot pie a try.
