Yield Makes eight 4-inch pies

Number Of Ingredients 22

1 whole chicken (4 pounds), rinsed and patted dry
4 cups homemade or low-sodium store-bought chicken stock
1 large onion, halved
2 bay leaves
1/2 teaspoon whole black peppercorns
3 sprigs fresh thyme, plus 2 tablespoons thyme leaves
1 celery stalk, cut crosswise into thirds
5 tablespoons unsalted butter
9 ounces medium red potatoes, cut into 1/2-inch chunks
12 white, red, or yellow pearl onions (halved lengthwise if large)
1 medium leek, white and pale-green parts only, cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds and rinsed well
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick rounds
6 ounces white mushrooms, halved lengthwise (quartered if large)
1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 cup milk
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon
2 teaspoons coarse salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Pate Brisee for Mini Chicken Potpies
2 tablespoons mixed fresh herb leaves, such as flat-leaf parsley, sage, chives, thyme, dill, rosemary, and oregano
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Put chicken, stock, large onion, bay leaves, peppercorns, thyme sprigs, and celery in a large (8-quart) pot. Add just enough water to cover the chicken. Cover pot; bring mixture to a boil. Uncover; reduce heat. Simmer 1 hour.
  • Transfer chicken to a cutting board (reserve stock in pot). Remove skin from chicken; discard. Cut meat from bones; discard bones. Using a fork, shred meat into bite-size pieces; set aside.
  • Pour stock through a fine sieve into a large bowl; discard solids. Set aside 2 cups stock. (Reserve remaining stock for another use; cooled stock can be frozen in an airtight container up to 4 months.)
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and pearl onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes begin to turn golden, about 5 minutes. Add leek, carrots, and mushrooms; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes more. Add flour; cook, stirring, 1 minute.
  • Stir in reserved 2 cups stock and the milk. Bring mixture to a simmer; cook, stirring constantly, until thick and bubbling, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in chicken, parsley, thyme leaves, zest, salt, and pepper.
  • Divide chicken mixture among 8 (4-by-2-inch) ramekins, filling them almost to the top. Let cool slightly.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out pate brisee on a lightly floured surface to 1/4 inch thick. Arrange mixed herbs on top; roll out dough with a lightly floured pin to 1/8 inch thick, gently pressing herbs.
  • Using a fluted (or plain) round dough cutter (4 1/2 inches in diameter), cut out 8 rounds from dough. Lightly beat egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush top edges of ramekins with egg wash. Place a dough round over each ramekin; gently press to seal. Chill in freezer until dough is firm, about 10 minutes.
  • Brush dough with egg wash. Cut 4 slits in top of each round for steam vents. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes.

Categories     Main Course

Time 2h15m

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons dried thyme
2 teaspoons dried sage
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup cold unsalted butter ((2 sticks) , cut into ½-inch cubes)
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
8 tablespoons ice cold water
3 tablespoons butter
1 ½ cups onion (, chopped)
1 cup celery (, chopped)
⅓ cup shallots (, chopped)
½ cup dry white wine
⅓ cup flour
4 cups warm chicken stock (, just below simmering)
5 cups rotisserie chicken (, in bite-size pieces, white and dark meat )
2 cups frozen peas and carrots
1 cup frozen corn
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary (, finely chopped)
1 tablespoon fresh sage (, finely chopped)
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Salt and pepper (, to taste)
1 egg (, slightly beaten to coat crusts)

Steps:

  • Combine flour, dried thyme, dried sage, baking powder, and salt in food processor. Pulse a few times to mix.
  • Add the cubed butter in 4 additions. Mixture should have a coarse texture.
  • In a small bowl, combine apple cider vinegar and cold water. With machine running, slowly pour in cold cider mixture until dough balls up to one side.
  • Transfer dough to lightly floured surface. Halve the dough and form into two discs. Wrap each tightly with plastic wrap.
  • Refrigerate at least 30 minutes prior to rolling out. (Dough can be made 3 days ahead of assembly. Keep chilled, or freeze up to 1 month.)
  • In a large sauté pan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions, celery, and shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Sauté until brown, about 8 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add wine, and reduce by half, about 3 minutes. Mix in flour, and stir for 2 minutes. Slowly whisk in hot stock until completely incorporated. Let bubble and thicken for 7-10 minutes.
  • Stir in chicken, peas and carrots, corn, and fresh herbs. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove from heat. Let cool while rolling out dough. (Filling can be made 1 day ahead of assembly. Bring to room temperature before continuing.)
  • Preheat oven to 375°F.
  • On a floured surface, cut the rounds of dough into thirds. Roll each third into an 8-inch circle, about 1/8-inch thick.
  • Place into aluminum pan or ramekin. Lightly press the dough into the sides and bottom of each pan. Let the excess crust hang over the edges.
  • Generously pile filling into each pan. Use all the filling. Fold excess crust over filling, leaving an exposed area of filling in the center for steam to escape. (Can be assembled a few hours before baking. Cover and refrigerate. Let sit at room temperature 20 minutes before continuing.)
  • Brush crust with beaten egg. Place prepared pies on a large rimmed baking sheet.
  • Bake 45 - 50 minutes in preheated oven, until tops are golden brown and filling is bubbly. Let sit 10 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 tablespoon olive oil
½ large white onion, diced
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cut into bite-size pieces
¾ cup frozen peas
½ cup mushrooms, chopped
⅓ cup carrots, chopped
1 ¼ cups chicken broth
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
¾ teaspoon salt
1 cup unsalted butter
½ cup cold buttermilk

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin and place on a baking sheet.

Add peas, mushrooms, and carrots, followed by chicken broth. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until chicken is no longer pink in the center and mixture thickens slightly, 10 to 15 minutes more.
  • Whisk flour and salt together in a medium bowl. Work butter into the mixture using your fingers, working quickly to prevent melting, until thoroughly mixed. Scoop mixture into a volcano-shaped cone with a well in the top. Pour in buttermilk. Bring dough together using a fork, trying to moisten all flour bits, until moist and shaggy.
  • Take a ball of batter and smooth into one of the prepared muffin cups. Fill with chicken mixture. Repeat until all muffin cups are filled. Cover each with a rolled layer of dough, sealing sides to prevent filling from spilling.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Continue to bake until crust is light golden brown, 10 to 12 minutes more. Serve immediately.
