STUFFING CRUST CHICKEN POT PIE



Stuffing Crust Chicken Pot Pie image

Presenting one of the easiest, tastiest renditions of pot pie you'll ever encounter, with a crust made entirely from stuffing that remains crisp even when it hits the rich and creamy chicken filling. If you'd like to shave off minutes, go ahead and start with boxed stuffing mix and rotisserie chicken (we won't tell).

Time 1h50m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
5 cups cooked stuffing
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
One 10.15-ounce can condensed cream of chicken soup
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
3 cups cooked, diced chicken meat
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced paper thin
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3 fresh sage leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Brush the bottom and sides of a 10-inch heavy skillet, preferably cast-iron, with 1 tablespoon butter. Mix together the stuffing and chicken broth in a bowl, then press the stuffing mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the skillet in an even layer, occasionally dipping your hands in cool water if necessary to help prevent the stuffing from sticking. Bake until dry to the touch and lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Whisk together the condensed soup and cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Stir in the chicken and vegetables. Pour the filling into the crust.
  • Toss the sweet potato slices with the remaining 4 tablespoons butter in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and toss again. Arrange the slices on top of the pot pie in concentric circles.
  • Bake until the sweet potato slices start to curl and brown around the edges, 45 to 50 minutes. In the last 5 minutes, top the pot pie with the sage leaves. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

STUFFED CHICKEN WITH PASTRY CRUST



Stuffed Chicken with Pastry Crust image

The melted cheese in the center makes the dish. I made some brown rice and asparagus to go with it, and my family really enjoyed it. I hope yours does too! This makes 3 really large servings, or you can split it and make it into six smaller portions.

Categories     Chicken Breasts

Time 1h20m

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 tablespoons cold butter
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
⅓ cup water, or more as needed
3 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 cup shredded White American cheese, divided
2 ½ cups fresh spinach leaves, divided
3 tablespoons dried basil
3 teaspoons garlic powder
3 pinches garlic salt
1 beaten egg

Steps:

  • Cut the butter into 1/4-inch thick slices; combine in the bowl of a food processor with the flour and salt. Pulse until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs; drizzle in water with the machine running, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough resembles lumpy oatmeal. Gather the dough into a ball, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Place each chicken breast between two sheets of heavy plastic (resealable freezer bags work well) on a solid, level surface. Firmly pound the chicken breast with the smooth side of a meat mallet to a thickness of 1/2 inch. Spread each chicken breast with a third of the cheese and spinach, and fold each chicken breast in half. Sprinkle each chicken breast with 1 tablespoon of basil, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, and a pinch of garlic salt.
  • On a well-floured work surface, roll the dough ball out into a rectangle about 1/8-inch thick and cut into 3 equal-size pieces. Wrap each folded chicken breast in pastry and pinch the edges together to enclose the chicken in the pastry dough. Place the wrapped chicken breasts onto the prepared baking sheet, brush each pastry package with beaten egg, and bake until the chicken is no longer pink inside and the crust is golden brown, 40 to 45 minutes.

STUFFED CHICKEN PARMESAN RECIPE BY TASTY



Stuffed Chicken Parmesan Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: chicken breasts, salt, mozzarella cheese, flour, eggs, bread crumbs, oil, tomato sauce, grated parmesan cheese, fresh basil

Provided by Alvin Zhou

Categories     Dinner

Yield 3 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 chicken breasts, boneless and skinless
salt, to taste
1 cup mozzarella cheese
2 cups flour
6 eggs, beaten
2 cups bread crumbs
1 cup oil, for frying
3 cups tomato sauce
½ cup grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh basil

Steps:

  • Season chicken with salt.
  • Cut a pocket into each chicken breast.
  • Stuff the pockets evenly with the mozzarella cheese.
  • Press the edges of the chicken together to seal the pocket.
  • Separate the flour, eggs, and bread crumbs into 3 separate bowls.
  • Being careful to keep the chicken from opening, dip the stuffed chicken in the flour, shaking off the excess.
  • Dip the floured chicken into the egg, then the bread crumbs, coating it evenly.
  • Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat. Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • Fry the chicken until golden brown on both sides.
  • Place ⅔ of the tomato sauce evenly on the bottom of a baking dish. Place the chicken on top.
  • Top with the rest of the tomato sauce, then sprinkle the parmesan and basil on top.
  • Bake for 20 minutes.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before starting, gather and measure all ingredients and preheat your oven to the required temperature. This will ensure a smooth and efficient cooking process.
  • Quality Ingredients: Use the best quality ingredients available to create a delicious and flavorful dish. Fresh, organic produce and high-quality meat will make a noticeable difference in the final product.
  • Seasoning: Don't be afraid to season your chicken generously. A combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika is a good starting point, but you can adjust the seasonings to your taste.
  • Stuffing Consistency: The stuffing should be moist but not too wet. If it's too wet, it will make the pastry soggy. If it's too dry, it will be bland and unappetizing.
  • Pastry Crust: Use a store-bought pastry crust or make your own from scratch. If using store-bought, thaw it according to the package instructions. If making your own, use a recipe that results in a flaky and golden crust.
  • Egg Wash: Before baking, brush the pastry crust with an egg wash made from one egg beaten with a tablespoon of water. This will help the crust brown and give it a shiny finish.
  • Baking: Bake the stuffed chicken according to the recipe instructions. The cooking time will vary depending on the size of the chicken and the type of oven you are using. Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).

Conclusion:

With careful preparation, attention to detail, and the right ingredients, you can create a delicious and impressive stuffed chicken with pastry crust. This dish is perfect for a special occasion dinner or a cozy family meal. Serve it with roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal. Enjoy!
