Moms Fabulous Chicken Pot Pie With Biscuit Crust Food

MOM'S FABULOUS CHICKEN POT PIE WITH BISCUIT CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook the onion, celery, and carrots until the celery and carrots are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, parsley, thyme and flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the vegetables and begins to fry, about 5 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, and mix in the chicken meat.
• Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 2-quart baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with water; brush egg yolk on the biscuits.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

INSTANT POT CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400F.
• In the insert pot of the Instant Pot, combine chicken tenders, broth, celery, onion, carrots, thyme, salt, and pepper.
• Close the lid and set the vent to the sealed position. Select a cook time of 4 minutes at high pressure.
• Once the cook time is complete, allow a natural release of pressure. After the pressure has released and the valve drops, carefully remove lid.
• Remove chicken to a cutting board.
• Whisk together flour and cream until lumps are gone, creating a slurry. Stir slurry into the hot broth in the insert pot, stirring well to combine.
• Add frozen peas to the broth and cream mixture.
• Shred or chop chicken as desired, then return to the broth and stir to combine.
• To prepare a traditional chicken pot pie, pour filling into a deep dish pie plate and top with prepared pie crust. Use a fork to prick a few holes into the top of the crust. Bake in preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, until crust is golden brown.
• To prepare as a chicken pot pie casserole, use a cookie cutter, biscuit cutter, or the rim of a glass to cut small rounds out of the prepared pie crust dough (or biscuits or puff pastry, if preferred). Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake as directed until golden brown. Scoop filling into bowls and serve with rounds of pie crust, biscuits, or puff pastry.
