INA GARTEN'S CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Place the chicken breasts on a baking sheet and rub them with olive oil. Sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes, or until cooked through. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then remove the meat from the bones and discard the skin. Cut the chicken into large dice. You will have 4 to 6 cups of cubed chicken.
• In a small saucepan, heat the chicken stock and dissolve the bouillon cubes in the stock. In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter and saute the onions over medium-low heat for 10 to 15 minutes, until translucent. Add the flour and cook over low heat, stirring constantly, for 2 minutes. Add the hot chicken stock to the sauce. Simmer over low heat for 1 more minute, stirring, until thick. Add 2 teaspoons salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and heavy cream. Add the cubed chicken, carrots, peas, onions and parsley. Mix well.
• For the pastry, mix the flour, salt, and baking powder in the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade. Add the shortening and butter and mix quickly with your fingers until each piece is coated with flour. Pulse 10 times, or until the fat is the size of peas. With the motor running, add the ice water; process only enough to moisten the dough and have it just come together. Dump the dough out onto a floured board and knead quickly into a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic and allow it to rest in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Divide the filling equally among 4 ovenproof bowls. Divide the dough into quarters and roll each piece into an 8-inch circle. Brush the outside edges of each bowl with the egg wash, then place the dough on top. Trim the circle to 1/2-inch larger than the top of the bowl. Crimp the dough to fold over the side, pressing it to make it stick. Brush the dough with egg wash and make 3 slits in the top. Sprinkle with sea salt and cracked pepper. Place on a baking sheet and bake for 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling hot.

VEGGIE POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Heat oil in a large skillet or saucepan. Cook onions, mushrooms, and garlic in oil for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently. Stir in carrots, potatoes, and celery. Stir in cauliflower, green beans, and vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then turn heat down to a simmer. Cook until vegetables are barely tender, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch, soy sauce, and 1/4 cup water until cornstarch is completely dissolved. Stir into vegetables, and cook until sauce thickens, about 3 minutes.
• Roll out 1/2 of the dough to line an 11x7 inch baking dish. Pour the filling into the pastry lined dish. Roll out remaining dough, arrange over the filling, and seal and flute the edges.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the crust is brown.

• Bring pot to a boil and add peas, mushrooms, and potatoes. Cook 10 to 15 minutes until mixture begins to thicken. Transfer to a pie or casserole dish.
• Carefully roll out puff pastry with rolling pin to smooth any creases. (If pastry cracks, dab with a little water and roll to keep together.) Lay pastry over dish and trim any excess dough. Tuck pastry into filling and cover completely. Cut steam vents in top of pastry with a sharp knife. Brush all over with egg wash.
• Place baking dish on a baking sheet and bake until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve immediately.

VEGETARIAN POT PIE

Steps:

• Place rack in the lower third of the oven. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Lightly coat a 9-inch pie dish with baking spray. Set aside.
• Heat a large Dutch oven or similar deep, heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter. Once hot, add the mushrooms and cook for 6 minutes, until mushrooms are beginning to brown, stirring occasionally. Add the celery, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the mushrooms have browned more deeply and the celery begins to soften, about 3 additional minutes.
• Sprinkle the flour over the top of the vegetables and cook 2 minutes, until the white disappears (the vegetables will seem dry). Slowly pour in the almond milk, adding a few splashes at a time, stirring constantly. Bring to a low boil, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pan. Continue to let bubble until thickened, about 3 to 5 minutes, stirring very often and scraping a spatula along the bottom of the pot to prevent sticking. Stir in the beans, peas and carrots, onions, thyme, and vinegar. Spoon the mixture into the prepared pie dish.
• Roll the pie dough into a circle large enough to cover your dish. Brush the edges of the pie dish with the egg wash, then lay the dough over the top so that it overhangs the sides. Trim the overhang to a 1/2 inch larger than edge of the dish. Gently press the dough onto the sides of the dish so that it sticks, then brush all over with the remaining egg wash. With a sharp knife, cut 5 slits in the top.
• Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment and place the pie dish on top. Bake until the pie is hot and bubbly on the inside and the crust is deeply golden, about 20 to 25 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees F halfway through. Let rest a few minutes. Serve hot.

• Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and let sit for 3 minutes, without stirring. Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic and thyme. Let cook 2 more minutes, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms are tender. Remove to a plate and set aside.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Once melted, add the carrots, onion, celery and salt and pepper. Let cook 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly tender. Add the flour and stir well to combine. Cook 2 more minutes. Add the vegetable stock and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches a low boil and thickens. Pour in ½ cup of heavy cream, white beans, ½ cup of grated parmesan cheese and the reserved mushrooms. Stir well to combine, season with salt and pepper, if desired, and remove from the heat.
• Carefully transfer the skillet to a sheet tray lined with foil. Unfold the puff pastry and carefully place it in the center of the skillet over top of the pot pie filling (draping over the edges of the skillet). Brush the pastry all over with the remaining 1 tablespoon of heavy cream. Sprinkle with extra parmesan cheese, thyme leaves and black pepper.
