Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 F.
• Melt butter in a skillet or dutch oven. Add onion, carrots, and celery, and cook until translucent (a couple of minutes.)
• Add chicken or turkey and stir. Sprinkle flour over mixture and stir. Cook over medium heat for a couple of minutes, stirring constantly.
• Pour in chicken stock, stirring constantly. Splash in wine (you can leave this out if you'd like.) Pour in heavy cream.
• Bring to a slow boil and allow mixture to cook and thicken for a few minutes. Once it starts to thicken add the thyme, salt and pepper to taste (do not under season).
• Do one final taste at the end and add anything it may need.
• Roll out pie crusts (if making homemade) on a floured surface and press one pie crust into the bottom of the deep pie pan or baking dish.
• Pour the filling on top of the pie crust. Lay the other pie crust over the top of the filling. Press against the sides of the casserole dish or pie pan.
• Use a knife to cut little vents here and there in the surface of the dough.
• Bake for 30-40 minutes or until crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Check at 30 minutes to prevent burning of the crust. If the crust is getting too brown around the edges before it's done, cover loosely with foil.
• Let cool 5-8 minutes before cutting into as this will help the filling to thicken.
• Serve with a large spoon.
• This freezes well.

CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the flour, sugar, salt, thyme and chives in a food processor and pulse a few times to evenly combine. Add the butter and pulse 7 or 8 times until the butter is in pea-size bits. Add the vinegar and 2 tablespoons ice water and pulse just until the dough starts to come together into a ball. (Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons ice water if the dough is too dry.) Form the dough into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the filling, at least 1 hour.
• Make the filling: Pile the 2 crushed garlic cloves, bay leaf, lemon peel, peppercorns and coriander seeds on a square of cheesecloth. Bring the corners together to form a pouch and tie with a piece of kitchen twine.
• Combine the chicken, chicken broth and cheesecloth pouch in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a rapid simmer and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate using tongs. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl; discard the cheesecloth pouch. Wipe out the saucepan; return the strained broth to the pan and keep at a very gentle simmer over low heat. Shred the chicken using 2 forks.
• Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the potato, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook until the potato is slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the 3 minced garlic cloves and the thyme and cook until softened, 1 minute. Add the vinegar and cook until the liquid has evaporated, about 1 minute. Stir in the flour until the vegetables are evenly coated. Pour in 1 3/4 cups of the strained chicken broth (save the rest for another use). Bring to a gentle boil and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Add the shredded chicken, parsley and peas and stir to combine and heat through; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the filling to a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie plate and let cool until no longer steaming, about 20 minutes.
• Bake the pot pie: Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie dough into an 11-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Place it over the filling. Roll the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges with your fingers. Cut vents in the top of the dough. Beat the egg and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Brush the crust all over with the egg wash. Place the pot pie on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the crust is a deep golden brown, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool 20 minutes before serving.

THE BEST CHICKEN POT PIE EVER!

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over medium high heat, combine the chicken breasts, chicken broth, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer for 30 minutes, or until chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear.
• Remove the chicken and let cool. Pour the remaining chicken broth mixture into a measuring cup. Let stand; spoon off fat. Add enough canned broth to equal 1 cup if needed. Add half and half to the broth mixture to equal 2 1/2 cups. Cut chicken into 1/2 inch pieces.
• In the same pan, melt butter or margarine over medium heat. Add the onion and celery. Saute, stirring, for 3 minutes. Stir in flour until well blended. Gradually stir in broth mixture and the herbs. Simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and boils. (you will think this is TOO MUCH liquid, but it's not). Add the chicken and vegetables to the broth and stir to combine. Line a deep pie dish with one of the pastries and pour mixture in, almost to the top.
• Cover mixture with second pastry, making sure to "seal the edges" by pinching together the top and bottom then pressing against the lip of the dish. Cut a few vent holes in the pastry then brush pastry with beaten egg. Use any leftover scraps from the pastries to make a design on top.
• Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Let cool for 10 minutes and serve.
• When done, the inside ingredients will be thick and creamy.

MY FAVORITE CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Follow directions for thawing/preparing puff pastry sheets.
• Adjust oven rack to low center position, heat oven to 400.
• Put chicken broth in a dutch oven over medium heat. Add chicken. Cover and bring to a simmer. Simmer until chicken is just done, 8 - 10 minutes. Transfer meat to a bowl to cool. Transfer broth to small bowl.
• Increase heat to medium-high and heat 1 1/2 tablespoons oil in the dutch oven.
• Add onions, carrots and celery and saute until just tender, about 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Put cooked veggies in a large mixing bowl and set aside.
• Saute mushrooms in remaining 1 tablspoon of oil until liquid evaporates and mushrooms start to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, shred checken into bite size pieces. (Reserve any accumulated chicken juices). Place chicken in bowl with the veggies, add mushrooms to mixture.
• Heat butter over medium heat in dutch oven. When foaming subsides, add flour, cook for about 1 minute whisking constantly. (This step is important, do NOT cook less than 1 minute). Whisk in reserved chicken broth, milk and any accumulated chicken juices and thyme.
• Bring liquid to a simmer, reduce heat to low and continue to simmer, stirring, until sauce fully thickens about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Stir in sherry. Taste and adjust seasonings.
• Pour sauce over chicken-vegetable mixture, stir to combine. Stir in peas an parsley.
• Pour mixture into a 13x9 pan or any shallow baking dish of your preferred size.
• Place puff pastry sheet over pan and gently press to edges. You may need to lightly roll out the pastry sheet to get the right size. If you use different pans, you will obviously need to cut the puff pastry to the appropriate size, I use scissors and cut the pastry just a touch bigger than the diameter of the pan.
• Bake until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes for large pies and 20 - 25 minutes for smaller pies.
• Serve immediately.
