Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 17

4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
4 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup milk
2 scallions, chopped
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 red onion, chopped
4 tablespoons flour
2 cups chicken broth
2 cups diced carrots
2 cups diced celery
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 teaspoon sage
1/2 cup milk
2 cups cooked and shredded chicken

Steps:

  • If you are cooking the pot pies immediately, preheat the oven to 375.
  • Start by making the potatoes: put the potatoes into a saucepan, cover them with water and bring to a boil. Simmer until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.
  • Add 4 tablespoons of butter and 1 teaspoon salt. Mash with a potato masher and then add the pepper and the milk. Stir in half the scallions and set aside.
  • In another large saucepan, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium high heat. Add the onions and stir until they are starting to turn tender, about 3 minutes.

  • Add the carrots, celery, 1 teaspoon salt and the sage. Simmer for another 5 minutes.
  • Add the milk and the chicken and simmer for another 5 minutes.
  • Spoon the chicken mixture into one large casserole or individual casseroles. Top with the mashed potatoes, spreading them to the sides of the casserole. At this point you can put them in the fridge if you are baking them later, just let them come to room temperature before you bake.
  • Place the casserole on a rimmed baking dish and bake for 30 minutes. Cool slightly, garnish with remaining scallions and serve!

CHICKEN POT PIE WITH POTATO CRUST



Chicken Pot Pie With Potato Crust image

We were craving chicken pot pie one day, and didn't want a traditional crusted pie. So I used a mashed potato topping like I use for Sheppard's or Cottage Pie. I also don't like using cream of ... soups, so I made a milk free version.

CREAMY CHICKEN POT PIE



Creamy Chicken Pot Pie image

I got this recipe from my husband's step-grandmother and it is delicious and easy. I normally cut down on the ingredients because its just the 2 of us eating but it is so yummy and easy! I also use a frozen pie crusts and tear apart the crusts and put it and the chicken mixture in a pyrex dish-so much easier!!

Provided by Chef 495452

Categories     Savory Pies

Time 1h10m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 cup onion, Chopped
1/2 cup flour
1 cup celery, Chopped
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup carrot (Chopped or Sliced)
1 cup potato, Diced
1/2 cup frozen green pea
1 cup half-and-half cream
1/3 cup butter or 1/3 cup margarine
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
4 cups cooked chicken, Chopped
2 frozen pie crusts

Steps:

  • Sauté onion, celery, potatoes and carrot in butter for 10 minutes.
  • Add flour to sautéed mixture, stirring well; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  • Combine broth and half and half, also add ½ cup water; gradually stir into vegetable mixture.
  • Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened and bubbly.
  • Stir in salt and pepper.
  • Add chopped chicken, stirring well.
  • Pour chicken mixture into a greased shallow 2 quart casserole. Top with pastry pie crusts.
  • Cut slits to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake at 400 degrees for 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
  • ** I add a little bit more half and half and add some water because otherwise it thickens too much. Don't let it get too thick before you pour it in the container to bake. The first time I made this it was too thick and ended up being a little dry by the time we got to eat it. So when it starts to thicken, go ahead and combine chicken with it and put it into the oven.

Time 2h32m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 19

3 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
6 quarts water
1 pinch salt
2 ½ pounds potatoes, peeled and diced
1 bunch celery, diced
¼ cup butter
2 pounds baby carrots, halved
1 onion, diced
7 tablespoons butter
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups cream
¼ cup chopped parsley
¼ cup chopped green onion tops
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 tablespoons butter
2 cups flour
¼ cup ice water
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1 egg yolk, lightly beaten

Steps:

  • Place the chicken into a pot with the water, add salt, and simmer over medium heat until meat is falling off of the bones, about 40 minutes. Remove from heat, and cool. Remove chicken from broth, reserving broth. Remove the meat from the chicken, cutting large pieces into chunks. Discard skin and bones.
  • Meanwhile, place the potatoes into a large pot, and fill with enough water to cover. Bring to a boil over, and cook 8 minutes. Add the celery, and cook 2 minutes more. Drain, and place into a large bowl.
  • Bring a second pot of water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the carrots, and cook 5 minutes. Add the onion and cook 3 minutes more. Remove from heat and drain.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13 baking dish.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the carrots and onion, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Mix with the potatoes and celery. Stir in the chicken.
  • To make the sauce, melt 7 tablespoons of butter in a pot over medium heat. Whisk 6 tablespoons of flour into the butter, and cook until light brown and paste-like, about 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in the cream and 2 cups of the reserved chicken broth. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley and green onions. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Pour the cream sauce over the vegetables and chicken mixture, tossing to coat evenly. Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish.
  • To make the Cheddar crust, cut 4 tablespoons butter into 2 cups of flour until the mixture is pea-sized. Stir in the Cheddar cheese and sprinkle the ice water over the mixture, gathering the dough into a soft ball. Knead gently until smooth and elastic. Roll dough out on a lightly floured surface until large enough to cover the entire baking dish. Place over the chicken mixture in the baking dish, tucking in edges to fit. Brush with the beaten egg yolk. Pierce top in a few places with a fork or knife to vent steam.

OLD-FASHIONED CHICKEN POT PIE WITH SWEET POTATO CRUST



Old-Fashioned Chicken Pot Pie With Sweet Potato Crust image

The sweet potato gives a lovely orange color to the crust and an unusual flavor to pot pie. A little time-consuming to chop all the vegetables, so you could use already chopped frozen or canned vegetables for the most part (cooked according to package directions) to make it a little quicker and easier. Can be made ahead through step 14 and covered with tinfoil and frozen at that point. Thaw it in the refrigerator when you're ready to cook it, remove tinfoil and follow step 15 for cooking (may take an extra 5-10 minutes to cook through).

Categories     Dinner

Time 5h55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 38

1 whole chicken
1 tablespoon kosher salt, divided, plus 2 teaspoons
8 tablespoons unsalted butter, room temperature
1 teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 lemon, zested then cut into quarters
1 small yellow onion, quartered
1 head garlic, halved crosswise
1 large yellow onion, quartered
1 head garlic, halved crosswise
1 large carrot, cut into 2 in (5 cm) pieces
1 celery stalk, cut into 2 in (5 cm) pieces
1 teaspoon whole black peppercorn
5 sprigs fresh thyme
3 sprigs fresh parsley
1 dried bay leaf
water, as needed
3 cups all purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoon kosher salt
2 ½ sticks unsalted european-style butter
½ cup ice
½ cup cold water
½ cup vodka
1 stick unsalted butter
1 cup yellow onion, chopped
1 cup carrot, diced
1 cup baby gold potato, quartered
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more to taste
½ cup all purpose flour
3 cups homemade chicken broth
½ cup heavy cream, room temperature
½ cup frozen peas
2 tablespoons fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped
freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 large egg, beaten with 1 tablespoon of water
flaky sea salt, for garnish

Steps:

  • Roast the chicken: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  • Pat the chicken dry with paper towels, including inside the cavity, then season the cavity with 1 tablespoon kosher salt.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the butter, garlic powder, pepper, thyme, lemon zest and 2 teaspoons of kosher salt until well combined. Rub the butter mixture all over the outside of the chicken, including under the skin, making sure to rub the thighs and legs as well as the breast.
  • Add the lemon quarters, onion, and garlic to the cavity of the chicken.
  • To truss the chicken, use a piece of butcher's twine to tie the legs together so the bird holds a nice shape. Tuck the wingtips underneath the breasts so that they fit snugly. Transfer the chicken, breast-side up, to a roasting rack set inside a roasting pan.
  • Roast the chicken for 60-80 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the chicken thigh reaches 165°F (75°C). Remove the chicken from the oven and let rest at room temperature for 20 minutes.
  • Transfer the chicken to a large cutting board, reserving the juices in the roasting pan. Use a sharp knife to cut the legs and breasts away from the chicken carcass. Remove the skin from the chicken and transfer to the bowl of an Instant Pot, then pull the meat from the bones and shred into ½-inch pieces. Add the bones and carcass to the bowl with the skin. Transfer 4 cups of chicken to an airtight container for the pot pie filling and refrigerate until ready to use. Save any remaining chicken in a separate airtight container for another use; it will keep in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Make the chicken stock: Add the onion, garlic, carrot, celery, peppercorns, thyme, parsley, and bay leaf to the Instant Pot bowl with the chicken skin, bones, and carcass. Pour in enough water to cover the chicken by 1 inch, then add the reserved chicken juices.
  • Put the lid on the Instant Pot and set to pressure cook on high for 45 minutes. Once the timer goes off, turn the Instant Pot to quick release. Strain the chicken stock into a large bowl and discard the solids. Set aside 3 cups of stock at room temperature for the pot pie filling. Transfer the remaining chicken stock to an airtight container and save for another use; it will keep for up to 5 days in the refrigerator or up to 6 months in the freezer.
  • Make the pie dough: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and kosher salt. Add the butter and toss to coat each cube in the flour, then smash each piece of butter with your fingertips into lima bean-sized pieces. It's okay if some pieces are larger than others.
  • Add the ice, water, and vodka to a small bowl and stir to combine. Add 1-2 tablespoons at a time to the flour mixture and toss with a rubber spatula until the dough holds together when pressed between your hands. You may not need all of the liquid. The dough should not be very tacky or sticky.
  • Turn the dough onto a clean surface and use a bench scraper to gently bring it together into a rectangle. Fold the dough into thirds, like a business letter. Turn the dough 90°, then flatten and fold into thirds again. Repeat until all of the bits of dough have been incorporated and it just comes together in a smooth, cohesive mass. Do not overwork. Divide the dough in half and wrap each portion tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to 3 days.
  • Make the filling: Melt the butter in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add onion, carrots, potatoes, and thyme and season with 1 teaspoon kosher salt. Cook until the onion starts to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until no lumps remain and the flour is evenly incorporated into the butter, 2-3 minutes.
  • Slowly whisk the reserved 3 cups of chicken stock, a little at a time. Simmer until the stock has reduced and thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the heavy cream and stir to combine.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and fold in the reserved 4 cups of shredded chicken, peas, and parsley. Season with more kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Transfer the filling to a large bowl and let cool to room temperature, then place in the freezer for 15 minutes.
  • Assemble the pot pie: Place a portion of pie dough on a floured surface. Sprinkle flour on top of the dough and on the rolling pin, then roll the dough into a 12-inch (30 cm) round, about ⅓ inch thick, rotating 90° every few rolls. Repeat with the remaining dough, rolling out slightly thinner to ¼ inch thick. Roll the thicker dough round onto the rolling pin and transfer to a 9-inch (22 cm) glass deep dish pie plate, gently lifting and pressing so the dough is flush against the dish. Brush the inside of the dough with the egg wash, including the sides and outer rim. Add the chilled filling, spreading evenly.
  • Drape the remaining dough round over the pie. Trim any excess dough around the edges, then pinch the top and bottom doughs together to seal. Roll the edges under, all the way around the pie dish, and crimp using the knuckle of an index finger of one hand and the thumb and index finger of the other.
  • Brush the egg wash all over the top of the dough, getting in the grooves and sides of the pie. Use a paring knife to cut a few vents in the top to allow the steam to escape. Sprinkle flaky sea salt on top. Chill the assembled pie in the refrigerator for 20 minutes, until firm.
  • Arrange a rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  • Place the pie dish on the prepared baking sheet, then transfer to the oven and bake for 40-50 minutes, rotating halfway through, until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  • Let cool for 15-20 minutes before serving.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by TABDAVIS

Categories     Chicken Pot Pie

Time 1h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 large potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
¾ cup shortening
5 tablespoons ice cold water
½ cup milk, or more to taste
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups chopped cooked chicken, or to taste
1 ½ cups frozen mixed vegetables
1 (10.5 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
2 teaspoons garlic salt
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 pinch cayenne pepper
ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until soft, about 15 minutes.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, mix flour and salt together in a bowl. Slowly cut in shortening with a pastry cutter. Sprinkle in 1 tablespoon ice water at a time and knead until dough forms a ball. Divide in half and flatten each piece onto a lightly floured surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out two 9-inch pie crusts.
  • Drain potatoes and place back in the pot. Mash potatoes until smooth, then mix in milk and butter. Add cooked chicken, frozen vegetables, condensed soup, Cheddar and mozzarella cheeses, garlic salt, paprika, cayenne, and black pepper.
  • Place one pie crust in the bottom of a 9-inch, deep-dish pie plate. Fill with chicken and potato mixture, then top with the remaining crust. Cut slits in the top crust for venting.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a food processor to quickly and easily chop the vegetables for the filling.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can also chop the vegetables by hand. Just be sure to chop them into small, even pieces.
  • Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the filling. This will give the vegetables and chicken plenty of room to cook.
  • Bring the filling to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for at least 30 minutes. This will allow the vegetables to soften and the flavors to meld.
  • While the filling is simmering, make the potato crust. This can be done by boiling the potatoes, then mashing them with butter, milk, and seasonings.
  • Spread the potato crust over the filling in the pot or Dutch oven. Then, bake the pot pie in a preheated oven until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  • Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes before serving. This will allow the filling to set and the crust to firm up.

Conclusion:

Chicken pot pie with potato crust is a classic comfort food that's perfect for a cold night. It's also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With its creamy filling, flaky crust, and hearty vegetables, this pot pie is sure to please everyone at the table.
