Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Cook the onions, carrots, and celery with salt and pepper, to taste, until the carrots soften, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently. Add the flour and cook off the raw flavor, about 1 minute more. Turn up the heat to medium-high and deglaze the pan with the wine. Whisk in the stock and Dijon mustard. Add the peas and chicken(if making vegetarian you can use more veggies or tofu, seitan, mushrooms are good in it too) and cook on a very low simmer until the sauce thickens up into a gravy, 5-10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- On a lightly floured surface, unfold the pastry dough and cut into 4 even squares (cut once horizontally and once vertically). Gently roll out each square, increasing the size of the square by about 20 percent with a rolling pin. Place the squares on a baking sheet and spoon the chicken mixture in the center. Fold the squares diagonally to create triangles. Pinch the edges together to create turnovers (use a little water on the edges to bind). Press the edges with a fork to create a decorative border. Whisk the egg with a splash of water and brush the turnovers with the egg wash. Cut a small slit in the top to allow the steam to escape during baking.
- Bake the turnovers until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving as the insides will be very hot. Enjoy!
- Note:.
- To make this vegetarian, use vegetarian "chicken" or just use more veggies.

Steps:
- Make the turnovers: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Melt the butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrot and celery, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook until the carrot softens, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently. Add the flour and cook off the raw flavor, about 1 minute more. Turn up the heat to medium high and deglaze the pan with the wine. Whisk in the stock and dijon mustard. Add the peas and chicken and cook at a very low simmer until the sauce thickens up into a gravy, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
- On a floured surface, unfold the puff pastry and cut into 4 squares (cut once horizontally and once vertically). Gently roll out each square, increasing the size of the square by about 20 percent. Place on a baking sheet and spoon the chicken mixture in the center. Fold the squares in half diagonally to create triangles. Pinch the edges together to create turnovers (use a little water if needed to bind). Press the edges with a fork to create a decorative border. Whisk the egg with a splash of water and brush the turnovers with the egg wash. Cut a small slit in the tops to allow the steam to escape during baking. Bake the turnovers until golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at least 10 minutes before serving as the insides will be very hot.
- Meanwhile, make the salad: Rub the inside of a large wooden bowl with the garlic clove and then either discard it or save it for another use. Put the mustard in the bowl and whisk in the vinegar and soy sauce (a French secret!) vigorously for about 10 seconds to get a creamy consistency. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle in the olive oil as slowly as possible with one hand while whisking as quickly as possible with the other hand to emulsify. Lay the salad greens on top of the dressing and toss just before serving. Serve with the turnovers.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- Mix soup, chicken, cheese, and salt and pepper in small bowl.
- Roll or pat each biscuit into 5inch circle and place about 1/4cup filling on each circle.
- Wrap dough around chicken and press the edges to seal.
- Place on ungreased cookie sheet and top with butter and bread crumbs.
- Bake at 375 for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and enjoy!
Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your pot pie turnovers more flavor and texture. Some good options include carrots, celery, onion, peas, and corn.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough. Cook it until it is just cooked through, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use a thick, creamy sauce. This will help to bind the ingredients together and make the turnovers more filling. You can use a canned cream of chicken soup, or you can make your own sauce from scratch.
- Be careful not to overfill the turnovers. If you overfill them, they will be difficult to seal and they will burst open in the oven.
- Bake the turnovers until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
Conclusion:
Chicken pot pie turnovers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. They are also a great way to use up leftover chicken. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying meal that the whole family will enjoy.
