SAVORY CHICKEN PIE

Steps:

• For the chicken:
• Preheat oven to 350 °F.
• Stuff onions and whole carrots into the cavity of the chicken. Rub 1/4 cup salt, black pepper and 1 stick butter into skin of chicken. Place rosemary sprigs under the skin and place into a roasting pan. Place sage on top of chicken and roast for 1 1/2 hours.
• Remove the chicken from the oven. Transfer to a cutting board and allow to cool.
• For the filling:
• Place carrots and potatoes on sheet pan and season with salt and pepper. Place into the preheated oven and roast until caramelized.
• When chicken has cooled, discard the onions, carrots, sage and rosemary. Pull the chicken meat off the bones and cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Place into a large bowl with chicken juice from roasting pan along with potatoes, 1 cup sliced carrots, peas, corn, heavy cream and 1/2 cup flour. Mix together well. Set aside for crust. *Cook's Note: Filling will be thick.
• For the crust:
• Knead 3 cups flour, 2 tablespoons salt, sugar, shortening, water and 1/2 cup melted butter together in a large bowl, slowly adding the water. Divide into 2 pieces and roll out on a lightly floured work surface. One will be the bottom crust, the other the top. Place 1 piece of dough into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish. Add filling and top with the other piece of dough. Crimp the edges together with a spoon or a fork. Brush the top crust with melted butter and bake in the preheated oven for 50 minutes.

HOMESTYLE CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, salt, and baking powder. Cube shortening. Using a pastry blender, cut in butter and shortening until mixture is crumbly. Stir in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time with a fork just until dry ingredients are moistened.
• 2. Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and shape into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• 3. Preheat oven to 375°. Spray a 10-inch deep-dish pie plate with cooking spray.
• 1. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add potatoes, beans, corn, carrot, onion, and celery; cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 7 minutes.
• 2. In a small bowl, stir together broth and half-and-half; whisk in flour until mixture is smooth. Stir half-and-half mixture, parsley, 1¼ teaspoons salt, pepper, and thyme into vegetables, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until sauce is thickened, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in chicken. Pour mixture into prepared pan.
• 3. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 12-inch circle; place on top of chicken mixture. Fold edges of dough under, and crimp as desired. Cut 6 slits in top of dough to release steam. Brush beaten egg onto dough, and sprinkle with remaining ¼ teaspoon salt. Place pot pie on a rimmed baking sheet.
• 4. Bake until crust is golden brown and filling is hot and bubbly, about 40 minutes. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN POTPIE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 375°. Lightly spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.
• 2. To make the filling: In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onions and carrots and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 30 seconds. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk. Simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Whisk in the Cheddar until melted, then stir in the chicken, peas and celery salt. Scrape the filling into the prepared pie plate.
• 3. To make the pastry: In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Mix in the oil with a fork. Knead in enough water until the crust just holds together. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the dough to a 10-inch circle. Drape the crust over the filling in the pie plate and tuck in the sides. Cut two vents in the top of the crust and bake for about 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden and the filling is bubbling.
• Easy Does It: The secret to a flaky, tender crust is not overworking the dough. Be sure you knead the dough only until the crust just holds together. If you're gonna go to the trouble of making it from scratch, you want to make sure it delivers the goods!

LADY AND SONS CHICKEN POT PIE (PAULA DEEN)

Steps:

• For Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F Cover large cookie sheet with parchment paper. Cut each sheet of frozen puff pastry into 1-inch strips long enough to cover each pie. On cookie sheet, weave strips into squares. (I made one large square to cover 8x8 casserole with pieces close together. As a result, it didn't cook all the way through in the center.) Brush beaten egg onto each lattice square.
• Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until pastry has risen and is a nice golden brown. (It should be cooked through at this stage). Set aside until ready to assemble pies.
• For Filling: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and sauté until cooked through. Remove from heat and cut into chunks.
• In a large saucepan melt butter and then slowly add flour, stirring until consistency of peanut butter, but do not brown like a roux. NOTE: You may not need all of the flour--stop with it is the right consistency--it may only take 1/4 cup. Slowly add cream and keep stirring.
• Add chicken base (NOTE: here again you may not want to use all 1/4 cup--it may be too salty so use caution), garlic, and onion and stir until thickened.
• Add cooked peas and carrots, nutmeg, if using, and cut up chicken. Remove from heat.
• To serve fill 4 individual oven-proof bowls with chicken mixture and then top each with a pre-cooked lattice square.
