BUFFALO CHICKEN POT PIE
Here's a spicy twist on chicken pot pie: The flavors of Buffalo chicken are combined with a creamy sauce, then baked between two pie crusts and studded with blue cheese. To cut down on prep time we call for store-bought pie crusts and use shredded cooked chicken meat (you can use leftover roast chicken, or meat from a rotisserie chicken). Make this recipe a new favorite for Game Days or serve it on weeknights for a cozy family dinner.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the garlic and onion and cook until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the celery, carrots and a pinch of salt and cook until the colors brighten and the vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle in the flour and cook, stirring, until the butter and liquid is absorbed, about 2 minutes. Pour the stock and milk into the pot, stirring continuously to dissolve the flour, and cook until thickened, about 6 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the chicken, peas, hot sauce, sour cream and 1 teaspoon salt. Let cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Unroll 1 pie crust over a 9-inch pie plate, easing it over the bottom and gently pressing it up the sides. Let any excess hang over the edges. Spoon half of the cooled pot pie filling onto the bottom crust. Sprinkle half of the blue cheese on top. Pour the remaining filling on top and sprinkle with the remaining blue cheese. Unroll the top crust over the pie. Roll the bottom and top crust edges together and crimp.
- Whisk the egg and 2 tablespoons water in a small bowl to make an egg wash. Brush the top of the pie with the egg wash and make 4 slits on top (this will let steam escape). Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 40 minutes. Let cool for 15 to 20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Add the cream cheese to a large bowl. With an electric hand mixer, beat the cream cheese until creamy and soft, 1-2 minutes. Add the ranch seasoning, buffalo sauce, and 1 egg and mix on low speed to combine, gradually increasing the speed to medium as the mixture becomes less watery, 1-2 minutes.
- Add the chicken, celery, carrots, onion, and shredded cheddar to the cream cheese mixture. Stir with a spatula to combine.
- Transfer the chicken mixture to a 10-inch cast iron skillet. Unroll the pie dough over the skillet and lay evenly over the filling. Run your fingers underneath the edges of the dough and tuck under itself to form a crust that sits neatly along the edges of the skillet.
- In a small bowl, mix together the remaining egg and the heavy cream. Brush the egg wash over the top of the pie crust. Using a paring knife, make a few small slits in the center of the crust.
- Bake the pot pie for 35-40 minutes, until the crust is golden brown and cooked through. Remove the pot pie from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
- Serve the pot pie garnished with scallions.
- Enjoy!

Tips:
- For a crispy crust, use a combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour. Bread flour has a higher protein content, which will give the crust a chewier texture.
- Use unsweetened almond milk or regular milk if you don't have heavy cream on hand.
- If you don't have a pie crust, you can use a pre-made one from the store.
- To make the buffalo sauce, you can use your favorite store-bought brand or make your own. To make your own, combine 1 cup of hot sauce, 1/2 cup of butter, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, 1 tablespoon of white vinegar, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 1 teaspoon of onion powder in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
- You can use any type of shredded chicken for this recipe. Rotisserie chicken is a great option because it's already cooked and easy to shred.
- If you don't have blue cheese dressing, you can use ranch dressing or another type of creamy dressing.
- To make the pie ahead of time, bake it according to the directions and then let it cool completely. Wrap the pie tightly in plastic wrap and store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the pie in a 350-degree Fahrenheit oven until it's warmed through.
Conclusion:
Buffalo chicken pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for a party or potluck. With its crispy crust, creamy buffalo sauce, and tender chicken, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a new recipe to try, give buffalo chicken pie a try. You won't be disappointed!
