CHICKEN POT TOT HOTDISH



Chicken Pot Tot Hotdish image

My Tater Tot hotdish has the body of a chicken pot pie, a dish that I loved growing up, long before I knew the existence of Tater Tot hotdish. But a close examination reveals that the only real differences are the subbing of chicken for ground beef and the use of a homemade cream of chicken soup instead of mushroom soup. I don't think this will offend a hotdish purist.

Yield Serves 6-8

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, finely chopped
3 carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
Kosher salt
6 tablespoons flour
3 cups whole milk
Enough chicken broth base to make 3 cups broth
3/4 cup peas, fresh or frozen
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thigh, cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Black pepper
18 ounces frozen Tater Tots
Ketchup, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and carrots and a pinch of salt and cook, stirring until soft, about 10 minutes. Stir in the flour so that it gets evenly distributed. Add 1 1/2 cups of the milk, stirring constantly until thickened. Repeat with the remaining 1 1/2 cups milk. Stir in the chicken broth base, peas, chicken, thyme, and a few turns of pepper and simmer, stirring often, until the chicken is cooked through and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste the mixture and adjust seasonings if desired.
  • Transfer the mixture to an 11x8-inch baking dish (or other 3-quart ovenproof dish) and cover the bitch with Tater Tots. Arrange them snugly and neatly. Bake until the tots are golden brown. Begin checking for doneness at 30 minutes. Let cool slightly and serve with ketchup, if desired.

TATER TOT CHICKEN PIE



Tater Tot Chicken Pie image

This has become a family favorite - I found this recipe on a bag of tater tots several years ago. This is very similiar to a Chicken Pot Pie with a Tater Tot topping instead of bread. It makes a great one dish meal with a salad and bread.

Provided by Sheri in Georgia

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 1h

Yield 5-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (2 lb) bag frozen tater tots
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 small garlic cloves, pressed
1 tablespoon butter or 1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cups diced cooked chicken
1/4 cup milk
1 (10 ounce) package frozen mixed vegetables
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
dried thyme
black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375°.
  • In large skillet, cook onion and pressed garlic in butter or olive oil over medium high heat until onion is tender.
  • Add cooked chicken, frozen veggies, undiluted soup, milk, thyme and pepper.
  • Stir ingredients together and cook over medium heat until hot and bubbly. Stirring occasionally.
  • Cover and cook an additional 5 minutes; stirring frequently.
  • Spoon chicken mixture into ungreased 2-quart casserole dish.
  • Arrange frozen tater tots on top.
  • Bake 40 minutes or until bubbly and tater tots are slightly browned.
  • Note: This recipe easily doubles and you can make two. I freeze the extra one with the tater tots on top and then remove and thaw in fridge. Bake as directed above. Also, I sometimes add an extra can of soup and an extra 1/4 cup of milk for a thinner consistency. This would be a personal preference. Also, I add approximately 1/2 tsp of dried thyme and 1/2 tsp of black pepper for one casserole - adaptable to your taste.

Tips:

  • If you need to make the chicken in advance, you can roast it and then shred it the next day. This will save you time when you're making the pie.
  • When making the tot topping, be sure to use a large enough skillet so that the mixture can spread out evenly. This will help to ensure that the tots are crispy.
  • If you're short on time, you can use a store-bought pie crust. Just be sure to pre-bake it according to the package directions.
  • Top the pie with shredded cheese before baking. This will help to create a golden brown crust.
  • Let the pie cool for at least 15 minutes before serving. This will help the filling to set.

Conclusion:

Chicken tot pie is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that the whole family will enjoy. With crispy tater tots and a creamy chicken filling, this pie is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy weeknight meal, give chicken tot pie a try. You won't be disappointed.
