Yield Makes eight 4-inch potpies

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 ounces bacon, finely chopped
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
6 ounces cremini mushrooms, quartered
3 medium carrots, sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 celery stalk, thinly sliced
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup plus 1 1/2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
3 cups chicken stock
2 1/4 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breast halves and thighs, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 tablespoons heavy cream
1 disk Pate Brisee
All-purpose flour, for surface
1 large egg, lightly beaten for egg wash

Steps:

  • Make the filling: Cook bacon in a large saucepan over low heat until crisp, about 10 minutes. Transfer bacon to a plate using a slotted spoon. Raise heat to medium, and add oil. Add onion, and cook until translucent, about 8 minutes. Add mushrooms, carrots, and celery, and cook until softened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Stir in flour.
  • Add stock, and bring to a simmer. Cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add chicken and cream. Simmer until chicken is just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Return bacon to saucepan. Let cool.
  • Divide filling among eight 4-inch (12 ounce) ramekins.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Make the topping: Roll out pate brisee to a 1/4-inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut out 8 circles that are 1 inch wider than the ramekins. Top ramekins with dough, and crimp edges with a fork to seal. Brush dough with egg wash. Freeze for 20 minutes.
  • Bake until toppings are golden and fillings are bubbling, about 40 minutes.

I'm allergic to mushrooms, but I think I could still enjoy this recipe by omitting them. The filling looks delicious.

Not a fan of this recipe. The potpie was too salty for my taste and the crust was too dry.

Disappointed with the results. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out right.

The potpie was delicious! The filling was creamy and flavorful, and the crust was perfectly flaky. I made a few changes to the recipe, using a mix of chicken and turkey and adding some chopped carrots and celery to the filling.

Great recipe! The potpie turned out amazing. The crust was golden brown and the filling was creamy and flavorful. I used a mix of white and dark meat chicken, which added a nice depth of flavor.
