Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 24

Pastry Dough:
400 grams flour (2 1/2 cups)
200 grams unsalted butter (1 3/4 sticks) it should be cold
8 grams salt (1 1/2 teaspoons)
100 milliliters ice water ( 6-8 tablespoons) depending on humidity of the day
The Soup:
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 bunch scallions (whites only) thinly sliced
1 large bunch of fresh carrots sliced or diced
4 ribs celery sliced or diced
4 large white mushrooms halved and sliced
1 large shitake mushroom (top only) diced small
1 handful of thin green beans (Harcoverts)
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
A few pinches of salt and fresh ground pepper
1/2 cup flour
4 cups of homemade or boxed chicken broth
** I prefer Kitchen Basics brand (plus any juice from roasted chicken)
1 cup of fresh or frozen peas
1 cup of frozen pearl onions
1/4 cup of minced parsley
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 egg beaten for egg wash
Freshly grated Parmesan or Gruyere cheese for topping (optional)

Steps:

  • Pastry Dough: Put the first 3 ingredients into the food processor and pulse intermittently (6-8 times) to get the mix crumbly. Add water gradually through the top, while pulsing, until it starts to clump together. Try not to overwork it. Gather up the dough into a ball, wrap in plastic, and chill in fridge for at least an hour or up to 3 days. This can also be frozen and saved for another time. It makes 6-8 pot pie crusts or 2 (9 inch pie crusts). Crusts for pot pie: Slice individual 1/2 inch pieces from the dough ball. Roll each piece between two pieces of parchment. (6" diameter at least) Keep them separated with parchment pieces in a pile. Refrigerate until ready to use. Chicken: When its cool enough to handle, discard the skin and cut meat into bite size pieces and put aside. Save the juice too! Soup: Set oven temp for 375. In a nonstick stock pot, saute the first 6 vegetables in the butter until soften. Add a couple of pinches of salt and pepper along with Thyme leaves. Add the flour to make a roux. Allow it to saute for 2-3 minutes. Slowly add chicken broth and stir. Add peas and onions. Bring the soup to a light simmer for 20 minutes. It should thicken, but add a little water or more broth if it thickens too much. Stir in chicken, heavy cream, and parsley. Simmer for 3 additional minutes, and then set aside. 1 egg beaten for egg wash Freshly grated Parmesan or Gruyere cheese for topping (optional) 6 (2 cup crocks oven safe) Place all six crocks on a rimmed baking sheet. Add 2 cups of soup to each one. Cover and secure dish with a pie crust, poking them once or twice with the end of a sharp knife to create a steam escape. Quickly egg wash the pies and sprinkle with cheese. Place the baking sheet in upper third of oven. Bake approximately 30 minutes or until tops are golden and the edges bubbling. **Allow them to cool 5 minutes before serving--- they will be HOT!

This recipe was a disaster. The filling was watery and the crust was raw.

I was disappointed with this recipe. The filling was bland and the crust was too thick. I won't be making this again.

This recipe is a great starting point for chicken pot pie. I made a few changes to suit my taste, such as adding more vegetables and using a different type of cheese. It turned out delicious!

I've made this chicken pot pie recipe several times and it's always a hit. It's easy to make and the ingredients are readily available. I like to add a little extra garlic and thyme to the filling for extra flavor.
