Time 1h45m

Number Of Ingredients 20

1 medium onion, small dice
2 large carrots, peeled and small dice
2 celery ribs, small dice
1 large parsnip, peeled and small dice
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 pound mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
3 1/2 cups low sodium turkey or chicken stock
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups roast turkey (or chicken) meat, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/2 cups frozen peas, thawed
2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 cups coarsely grated cheddar cheese
1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese
3/4 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups well-shaken buttermilk

Steps:

  • In a large heavy-bottomed stock pot or Dutch oven set over medium heat, combine the onion, carrots, celery, parsnip, thyme, butter, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper.
  • Stir until the butter melts then cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are almost tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Add the mushrooms and cook, uncovered, stirring, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the vegetables with the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Stir in the stock, scraping up any brown bits, and bring it to a boil, stirring. Simmer the mixture until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in the turkey and peas. Taste and season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Transfer the filling to a 13x9" baking dish. (See Kelly's Notes.)
  • Preheat the oven to 400ºF.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and pepper. Add the cheeses and toss to coat.
  • Blend in the butter with your fingertips until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Add the buttermilk and stir just until a dough forms. Drop the biscuit dough onto the pot pie filling in 8 large mounds, leaving spaces between biscuits.
  • Bake the pot pie until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown and the filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
  • Place the baking dish on a sheet tray before baking in the event any filling spills over.
  • The filling and biscuit dough can be made one day in advance and stored separately. Reheat the filling over low heat just before topping with biscuit dough and baking.
  • The fastest way to chicken pot pie is to make the most of a store-bought rotisserie chicken.

TURKEY POTPIE WITH A BISCUIT CRUST

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons (30 grams) olive oil
1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1 large carrot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups (290 grams) fresh English peas
1 cup (165 grams) fresh corn kernels, from about 2 cobs
1 teaspoon (1 gram) dried thyme
1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
2 cups (480 milliliters) chicken broth
1/2 cup (120 milliliters) heavy cream
2 cups roast turkey meat picked off bone and broken into bite-size pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour, plus for dusting the work surface
1 teaspoon (6 grams) salt
1 tablespoon (11 grams) sugar
1 tablespoon (15 grams) baking powder
1/2 cup (100 grams) vegetable shortening, frozen, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup (100 grams) unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup (240 milliliters) low-fat buttermilk
1 large egg
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, minced
Egg wash (1 egg whisked with 2 tablespoons water)
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • To make the filling: In a large (14-inch) ovenproof skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, onion, carrot, and garlic and saute until soft.
  • Stir in the peas, corn and thyme. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and then add the chicken broth and cream. Stir to distribute the flour and the liquids. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey and add salt and pepper to taste. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
  • To make the biscuit top crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk for thirty seconds to combine and evenly distribute the leavening. Add the shortening and butter and toss to coat the fat a bit with the flour. Using your fingertips, gently work the fats into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with some pea-size chunks of fat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg, and add this to the flour mixture. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Then, gently work through the mixture with your hands to separate any wet patches and bring the dough together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, sprinkle with the minced thyme and knead gently until it just holds together. Pat it into a rough 1/2-inch-tall disk and cut it into 7 biscuits using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter. (Bake off the scraps and use for croutons in the Broccoli Salad recipe.)
  • To assemble: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Top the filling in the skillet with the biscuit rounds. Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle them with sea salt.
  • Bake the potpie for 25 to 30 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown.

Provided by WisconsinSweets

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Savory Pie Recipes     Pot Pie Recipes     Turkey Pot Pie Recipes

Time 1h25m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
7 tablespoons cold vegetable shortening
6 tablespoons cold butter
6 tablespoons cold water, or as needed
3 tablespoons butter
2 carrots, diced
1 onion, diced
2 stalks celery, diced
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups cubed cooked turkey
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups chicken broth
1 (15 ounce) can cut green beans, drained
1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of mushroom soup
½ (15 ounce) can cream-style corn
1 tablespoon chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme

Steps:

  • In a bowl, whisk together 2 cups of flour with salt. Using a pastry cutter, cut the vegetable shortening and 6 tablespoons of cold butter into the flour mixture until the butter and shortening are the size of small peas. Sprinkle on cold water, 1 tablespoon at a time, and gently gather the moistened dough together with a fork until it just begins to clean flour from the side of the bowl. Separate the dough into 2 equal-size pieces, form into rounds, and refrigerate until needed.
  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
  • Melt 3 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the carrots, onion, and celery with black pepper until the onions are translucent, about 8 minutes. Transfer the mixture into a bowl; set aside. Place 2 tablespoons of flour into a resealable plastic zipper bag, and toss the cooked turkey meat into the flour; shake the bag to coat. Melt 2 more tablespoons of butter in the same skillet over medium heat, and cook the turkey meat in the butter until the flour coating turns golden brown, about 10 minutes. Pour the chicken broth into the skillet about 1/2 cup at a time, and stir until the broth begins to simmer and thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the cooked vegetables, green beans, cream of mushroom soup, cream-style corn, parsley, and thyme until the filling is thoroughly combined.
  • Roll out one of the dough pieces on a floured work surface to a circle about 11 inches in diameter, then fit the crust into a 10-inch pie dish. Pour the filling into the bottom crust. Roll out the second crust into an 11-inch circle, lay it on top of the filling, then pinch and fold the two crusts together at the edges to seal. Cut 5 slits into the top crust to vent steam.
  • Bake the pie in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and bake until the filling is bubbling and the crust is golden brown, about 25 more minutes.

TURKEY POT PIE WITH CHEDDAR BISCUIT CRUST



Turkey Pot Pie With Cheddar Biscuit Crust image

From Gourmet Magazine, November 2007, page 208. Made this for lunch New Year's Day and it was a hit. Substitute chicken if you wish. If you don't feel like messing with the vegetables, use a thawed bag of frozen stew veggies or mixed veggies. Works great. I am not including the stock recipe from the magazine as it is a standard carcass/skin one that doesn't need explanation. I cut the recipe in half and cooked it in an 11-inch enameled cast iron frying pan. Works great. If you are feeling adventurous, sub. chunks of beef, beef stock and some red wine, maybe some garlic and a shot of Worcestershire and make a beef pot pie. If you try it, let me know how it turns out.

1 1/4 cups buttermilk, well-shaken

Steps:

  • Separate parts of carcass and put, along with skin, in an 8-quart pot. Cover bones with water and simmer until liquid is reduced by one-third, about 1 1/2 hours. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl. Set aside 3 1/2 cups stock (reserve remainder for another use).
  • MAKE FILLING: Cook onion, carrots, celery, parsnip, and thyme in butter with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a 12-inch-wise shallow pot(3-to4-quart), covered, over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are almost tender, 10-12 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a rotisserie chicken for a quick and easy way to get cooked chicken. You can also use leftover turkey or chicken from another recipe.
  • If you don't have any puff pastry on hand, you can use pie crust or even crescent roll dough. Just be sure to roll it out thin so that it's easy to work with.
  • To make sure the filling is cooked through, simmer it for at least 15 minutes before adding it to the pot pie. You can also pre-cook the vegetables if you want to save time.
  • If you're using a frozen puff pastry sheet, be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
  • Don't overfill the pot pie, or it will be difficult to seal and the filling will bubble out. Leave about 1 inch of space at the top of the pie.
  • Be careful not to overcook the pot pie, or the crust will become dry and tough. Bake it just until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Conclusion:

Turkey pot pie is a classic comfort food that's perfect for a cold winter day. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like your pot pie with a creamy or a savory filling, with a flaky or a biscuit crust, there's a recipe out there for you.
