CATHA'S INDIVIDUAL TURKEY POT PIES
A solid turkey pot pie recipe. It's a great way to use up leftover veggies or meat in your fridge at the end of the week or from big holiday meals. Don't have one of the vegetables listed? Just swap the equivalent of another veggie you do have in there! Have leftover cooked rice? Throw it in with the peas! Have chicken, ham, ground beef, pork roast, beef steak, etc. rather than turkey? Great, use what you have! One of our favorites is rotisserie chicken shredded up and stock that I make from those bones. Do what works for you. They freeze well and are a legit way to send a frozen care package meal to someone.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
- Melt butter in a large, 12-inch saute pan over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until just soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Add potatoes, carrots, celery, and mushrooms and cook for another 4 minutes. Stir in garlic; cook for 1 minute. Add flour, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper; cook and stir for 1 minute more. Reduce heat to medium-low and slowly stir in chicken broth in order to avoid lumps. Bring back up to a simmer and cook until sauce thickens a bit, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in peas.
- Roll each portion of pie dough out to 1/8-inch thickness. Prepare 8 individual tins or crocks by placing one, upside-down, on the dough to imprint the size needed. Cut out 8 tops; make 4 to 5 small slits in each with a knife for venting. Set aside. Use remaining dough scraps to line the bottom of the tins/crocks.
- Fill the 8 crust-lined tins with 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 cups of pot pie filling. Lay the prepared crust tops over the filling and seal with your fingers or the tines of a fork.
- Bake in the preheated oven until crusts are golden and filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring the vegetables around, until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir to combine. Cook the flour-coated veggies for 1 minute, then pour in the chicken broth (and wine, if using!) and stir to combine. Let it heat up and start to bubble and thicken, about 3 minutes.
- Stir in the chicken, then add the turmeric and thyme, then season with salt and pepper. Add the half-and-half, then stir the mixture and let it bubble up and thicken, about 3 minutes. If it seems overly thick, splash in a little more broth. Turn off the heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.
- Meanwhile, roll out the pie crusts slightly and cut out 8 dough circles just a bit larger than the pie pans (if using a muffin tin, you'll need sixteen 3 3/4-inch circles). Press a dough circle into each pie pan (or 8 muffin cups), making sure the dough comes almost to the top of each pan. Fill the pies with the chicken mixture. Lay a second round of dough over the top of each pie. Press the dough so that the edges meet, then use a fork to seal the edges. Mix the egg with 2 teaspoons water and brush it all over the surface of the crust. (Discard any extra egg wash.) Cut small vents in the surface of the crusts.
- If you're baking the pies right away, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, place the pies on a baking sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Serve them straight out of the pie pans or turn them out of the pan and serve them upside down!
