INDIVIDUAL CHICKEN POT PIES (FOR 4)

Steps:

• Prepare all vegetables and place in a large bowl. Place garlic into a separate small dish.
• Chop chicken breasts and place into a medium bowl and season with 1/2 teaspoons pepper, 1 teaspoons salt, garlic and onion powder, and parsley. Mix well and set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoons olive oil in deep dutch oven. Sear chicken pieces in hot oil until no longer pink. Remove from pot to set aside.
• Add additional olive oil to pot and heat up. When hot add all fresh vegetables, minus frozen vegetables, potato, and garlic. Cook on medium heat, stirring frequently, until soft and tender.
• Add garlic and stir continually for about 3 minutes and very fragrant but not browned.
• Add all flour to vegetable mixture and incorperate very well. Let mixture cook about 5 minutes total to cook off flour taste.
• Immediately add all liquid (broth, milk, cream) and stir very well to not form lumps.
• Bring to a light boil and add chicken, potato, and frozen (thawed) vegetables, salt and pepper.
• Check for thickness of gravy and if too thick you can add more of any of the previous liquids used from begining.
• When hot and bubbling and seasoning and thickness of gravy is suitable to you, devide mixture into individual ramekins. Your size of ramekin will determine how many servings will achieve per recipe. This amount of mixture was enough for 4 medium large (approx. 4 in") ramekins.
• Using a sharp paring knife cut dough large enough to fit the top of ramekin. Place dough over mixture and seal edges.
• Brush all with last remaining 1 tablespoons cream, and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes, until crust is brown.
• Enjoy.
• If using frozen from freezer, place aluminum foil over top of potpie for first 30 minutes and bake until bubbly and brown. May take longer in oven due to frozen state. Adjust accordingly.

SAVORY INDIVIDUAL CHICKEN POT PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with foil. Lightly grease six 12-ounce oven-safe ramekins and place on the baking sheet for easy cleanup.
• Melt 4 tablespoons butter in a pot over medium-low heat. Add leeks, onion, 1/3 of the chopped celery, and garlic; saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add broth, potatoes, and bay leaves. Season with pepper, salt, thyme, sage, and rosemary; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for at least 25 minutes.
• Remove bay leaves. Use an immersion blender to emulsify the liquid.
• Slowly stir in heavy cream. Add remaining 3 tablespoons butter with carrots, peas, and remaining celery. Stir in chicken. Cover and simmer for about 15 minutes.
• Mix egg and water together and set aside for egg wash.
• Roll puff pastry out slightly. Flip one of the prepared ramekins upside-down on the pastry; cut out circles 1/2 inch larger than the ramekin.
• Fill each ramekin 3/4 full with the chicken mixture; do not fill to the top or it will make a mess in your oven. Place cut rounds of puff pastry over the tops and press around the edges to seal. Brush egg wash over each. Be sure to put a few knife slits on top of each pie to allow to vent.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is a golden brown, about 30 minutes. Let cool at room temperature for 10 to 12 minutes before serving.

INDIVIDUAL CHICKEN POTPIES

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the onion, carrots and celery. Cook, stirring the vegetables around, until they start to soften, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir to combine. Cook the flour-coated veggies for 1 minute, then pour in the chicken broth (and wine, if using!) and stir to combine. Let it heat up and start to bubble and thicken, about 3 minutes.
• Stir in the chicken, then add the turmeric and thyme, then season with salt and pepper. Add the half-and-half, then stir the mixture and let it bubble up and thicken, about 3 minutes. If it seems overly thick, splash in a little more broth. Turn off the heat and let the filling cool to room temperature.
• Meanwhile, roll out the pie crusts slightly and cut out 8 dough circles just a bit larger than the pie pans (if using a muffin tin, you'll need sixteen 3 3/4-inch circles). Press a dough circle into each pie pan (or 8 muffin cups), making sure the dough comes almost to the top of each pan. Fill the pies with the chicken mixture. Lay a second round of dough over the top of each pie. Press the dough so that the edges meet, then use a fork to seal the edges. Mix the egg with 2 teaspoons water and brush it all over the surface of the crust. (Discard any extra egg wash.) Cut small vents in the surface of the crusts.
• If you're baking the pies right away, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, place the pies on a baking sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes, until the crust is deep golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Serve them straight out of the pie pans or turn them out of the pan and serve them upside down!

• Press bottom crusts into each soup bowl and fill with about 1 1/2 cups filling on top. Top with smaller dough circles and press dough together to seal.
