Chicken And Mushroom Pot Pie Food

CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM PIE

Steps:

• Cover the chicken pieces in seasoned flour and fry them in a pan in the vegetable oil, until they are browned on all sides. You may need to do this in batches. When done return the chicken to a plate.
• Then add the garlic, onions, thyme and Rosemary to the same pan, add some butter and cook for about 4 minutes, stirring now and again.
• Add the remains of the flour and mix, keeping on the heat for a minute.
• Then add the stock, bit by bit until it is finished. Mix well, using a whisk.
• Add the milk slowly and keep heating until the sauce begins to get thicker.
• Then add the chicken back to the pot with the mushrooms. Add the lemon juice and season to taste.
• Then heat on the hob for about 20 minutes or until the sauce has thickened to your required consistency. Season again to taste and add the chopped parsley.
• Then add the sauce to a pie dish. The dish can now be put in the fridge and cooled until you want to finish cooking it.
• When ready to cook, roll out the pastry and cover the sauce mix, making sure you give it a brush with milk when you are finished. Do not do this beforehand or the pastry may dry out before you are ready to cook it.
• Pop into a pre-heated 180C oven and heat for 30-40 minutes or until the pastry has cooked.

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.

COUNTRY CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM POT PIE

Steps:

• Combine 1 cup boiling water and chicken bouillon in a liquid measure; set aside to dissolve.
• Meanwhile, melt 1 tablespoon butter in a pot over medium heat. Add onions and saute until translucent, about 5 minutes. Increase heat to medium-high and add mushrooms; fry for about 3 minutes. Remove onion-mushroom mixture from the pot.
• Add remaining butter to the pot with chicken pieces. Stir chicken and splash Worcestershire sauce over top. Cook, stirring continuously, until chicken is seared on all sides but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Stir in onion-mushroom mixture, bouillon, and pepper.
• Add milk and 1/4 cup water; boil for 20 minutes. Add frozen vegetables and boil for 10 more minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease an 8-inch oven-proof dish and lay down bottom crust in it. Set top crust aside.
• After filling has boiled for 10 minutes, use a large ladle to scoop out approximately 1 cup sauce from the mixture and pour into a cup. Add cornstarch to the cup and stir until all lumps have dissolved. Add cornstarch mixture back to the pot; cook and stir until filling has thickened to your liking.
• Bake bottom crust in the preheated oven for approximately 5 minutes. Remove from the oven, add filling, and cover with the top crust, making sure the edges are sealed. Make cute decorations with pastry cut-offs and use a knife to make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape. Lightly paint egg yolk over the top crust.
• Bake until golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. Ovens vary so baking time may vary-keep an eye on it.
