Best 3 Butter Bean Mushroom Bacon Pot Pies Recipes

BACON POT PIE

Steps:

• Place flour in a large bowl; cut in shortening and butter until crumbly. Gradually add ice water 1 tablespoonful at a time, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Divide dough in half. Shape each into a disk; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate 1 hour or overnight., Preheat oven to 375°. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine potatoes and water; microwave, covered, on high until tender, 4-5 minutes. Cool; drain. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk, garlic powder and pepper. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until thickened. Cool and set aside., On a lightly floured surface, roll one half of dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Trim even with rim. Place potatoes in crust. Top with bacon, onion, broccoli and cheese. Pour sauce over top. Roll remaining dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle. Place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edge. Cut slits in top. Place on a baking sheet., Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 50-60 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN, MUSHROOM AND BACON POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. In a heavy-based frying pan, fry the bacon in the oil until beginning to crisp. Then add the sliced mushrooms and soften them in the pan with the bacon.
• Turn the chicken strips in the flour and thyme and then melt the butter in the bacon and mushroom pan. Add the chicken and all the flour left in the bag. Stir around with the bacon and mushrooms until the chicken begins to color.
• Pour in the hot chicken stock and Marsala, stirring to form a sauce and let this bubble away for about 5 minutes.
• Take two deep oven-proof bowls and make a pastry rim for each one by placing a strip curled around the top of each bowl. Dampen the edges with a little water to make the pastry stick. Cut a circle bigger than the top of each pie for the lid, and then divide the chicken filling between the two bowls. Dampen the rim of the pastry again and then pop on the lid for each bowl, sealing the edges with your fingers or the underneath of the prongs of a fork. Cook the pot pies for about 20 minutes turning them around halfway through cooking. Once cooked, they should have puffed up magnificently.

GREEN BEAN MUSHROOM PIE

Steps:

• In a large skillet over medium-high heat, fry the chopped bacon until soft and just beginning to crisp.
• Reduce to medium heat, add the sliced mushrooms, garlic, olive oil, and 1 tablespoon butter and sauté until the mushrooms are tender (careful not to burn the garlic); remove from pan and set aside.
• Add the remaining butter into the skillet and sauté the yellow onions and green beans for 18 to 20 minutes or until the beans are crisp-tender (careful not to overcook).
• Stir in the thyme, cumin, green onion, salt, pepper, cream cheese, milk and mushrooms and cook until the cheese is melted.
• Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Spray a deep-dish 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray, dust it with about 1 teaspoon of flour, and then line it with one of the pie crusts.
• Pour the green bean mixture into the bottom crust, evening it across the top.
• Cut the remaining crust into 10 to 12 strips.
• Make a lattice crust: begin with the shortest strips and lay one strip across the pie vertically near the left edge, then lay another short strip horizontally near the top edge; continue, laying strips alternately vertically and horizontally, until you have a lattice; trim, seal and flute the edge.
• In a small bowl, beat together the egg and cream and then brush over the lattice crust top.
• Bake at 400° for 25 to 35 minutes or until golden brown.
• Notes: we made this for Thanksgiving again this year (2004) and I'm reminded how absolutely tasty it is! We made some minor alterations: 1) prebaked the bottom crust because we're having to travel with the dish several hours before serving, 2) I used haricot verts instead of regular green beans, and decreased the cooking time on the beans, 3) added a bit of ground sage to the sauteed onions, and 4) instead of doing a lattice I took the top crust and cut decorative shapes into it before laying it over the top. I took photos and have posted them, although they're not terribly good pics, they might give you an idea of what it looked like this year. I hope you enjoy both the recipe and the pics! :)
