Time 1h20m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup chopped leeks (3 medium) or 1 cup onion (1 large)
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
3/4 cup sliced celery (1-1/2 stalks)
1/2 cup chopped sweet red pepper
1 medium carrot, cut into thin diagonal slices
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half, light cream or 1 cup milk
2 1/2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 cup loose-pack frozen peas
1 egg, beaten
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
4 -5 tablespoons water

Steps:

  • Prepare Pastry, set aside.
  • In a large saucepan cook leek, mushrooms, celery, and sweet pepper in hot butter over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. Stir in the flour, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Add broth and half-and-half all at once. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Stir in chicken and peas. Pour into a 2-quart rectangular baking dish.
  • Place pastry over chicken mixture in dish. Turn edges of pastry under; flute to edges of dish. Brush pastry with some of the egg. If desired, place cut-out pastry shapes on top of pastry. Brush again with egg.
  • Bake, uncovered, in a 400 degree F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is golden brown. Let stand for 20 minutes before serving. Makes 6 servings.
  • PASTRY TOPPER:.
  • In a medium bowl stir together 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Using a pastry blender, cut in 1/3 cup shortening until dough pieces are pea-size.
  • Sprinkle 1 tablespoon cold water over the mixture 1 Tbsp at a time, gently toss with a fork until all dough is moistened.
  • Form into a ball.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll dough into a 13x9-inch rectangle.
  • Using a sharp knife, cut slits in pastry to allow steam to escape, or, if desired, use a small cookie cutter to cut shapes from pastry (I like to wait and do this once it on the pie - makes moving it a lot easier).

This chicken pot pie was just okay. The crust was a little too thick and the filling was a little too bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This chicken pot pie was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't turn out well. I won't be making this again.
