Chicken Pot Pie

Chicken Pot Pie is one of many ways I used my leftover chickens or turkey. It is very easy to make, I used mixed vegetables consist of green beans, peas, and carrot. Feel free to introduce or include your own favorite vegetable.

I used buttermilk while making the crust/dough if you don’t have buttermilk, combine 1/2 cup of milk and 1/2 tablespoon of lemon juice and allow to sit for about 5 minutes before using in the recipe.

When sealing the chicken pot pie edges, you can use any style to seal it, your fingers, fork, just make sure it is seal and don’t forget to slit/pierce the top of the pie before baking. You can make the edges as thick as you want. I made it very flat because my kids won’t eat the thick crust so, instead I used the excess to cover an individual pie using a ramekin to make it.

Ingredients
  • Dough/Crust:
  • 2- 2.5 Cups All-purpose flour
  • ½ Cup Cold buttermilk
  • 1 Cup Cold unsalted butter (cubed)
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Sugar
  • 1 Teaspoon Salt
  • 1 Tablespoon Cold water
  • Egg wash (1 egg + a tablespoon of water)
  • Filling:
  • 2.5 – 3 Cups Shredded Cooked Chicken breasts
  • 2 Cups Mixed Vegetables (I used frozen green beans, peas, and carrot)
  • 1.5 Cup Chicken broth
  • ½ Cup Heavy cream
  • 1/4 Cup All-purpose flour
  • ½ Cup Onion (chopped)
  • ¼ Cup Unsalted butter
  • 2 Cloves Garlic (minced)
  • 1 Tablespoon Parsley
  • 1 Teaspoon Thyme
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
  1. Fix the dough/crust first by whisking the dry ingredients together; flour, salt, and sugar in a food processor bowl, or just a big bowl, add cubed cold butter and mix, if you’re using your hand, you’ll need to work fast. Add the cold buttermilk and combine, if it is too dry add a tablespoon of cold water and if it is too sticky add more flour; small quantity at a time until if forms a ball. Cut into two (one bigger than the other more like ¾ and ¼) wrap with a cling film and flatten the dough into a disc form then place in a freezer to make it chill for at least 15 minutes or place in a refrigerator until it chill.

  3. Melt butter in a large pot or skillet over medium-high heat, add the chopped onions, and garlic and stir for a couple of seconds. Add green beans, peas and carrots then seasoning with thyme, parley, salt and pepper, cook until tender making sure you’re stirring to avoid burning.

  4. While the filling is cooking, preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and grease the pie pan with cooking spray or oil or butter then set aside.

  5. In a small cup make slurry; add flour and some of the chicken broth make sure no lumps. Add heavy cream, broth, and the slurry it to the mixture then combine. Reduce the heat and cook until the mixture thickens.

  7. Take the dough out of the refrigerator, and place on a floured worktop with a rolling pin, roll out the dough make sure it is not too thin. I used a 9-inch pie pan, place the rolled out one big dough and cover the pan with it. Use your finger to press the dough down and it cover all the bottom of the pan. Cut off the excess hanging over the pan then pour the filling.
  8. Roll out the other dough and carefully lift with the rolling pin and cover the pan, use your fingers and seal the edges, you can also use a fork, use any style to seal just make sure the filling well covered. Use a knife or fork to pierce the top of the pie, brush with egg wash

Recipe Notes

Note:

 I don't like my filling too thick  this the way I like but you want more thick filling you could reduce the liquid or use more flour when making slurry.

Buttermilk substitute:

Combine 1/2 cup of milk and 1/2 tablespoon of lemon juice and allow to sit for about 5 minutes before using in the recipe.
