TURKEY POTPIE WITH A BISCUIT CRUST

Steps:

• To make the filling: In a large (14-inch) ovenproof skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, onion, carrot, and garlic and saute until soft.
• Stir in the peas, corn and thyme. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and then add the chicken broth and cream. Stir to distribute the flour and the liquids. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey and add salt and pepper to taste. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
• To make the biscuit top crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk for thirty seconds to combine and evenly distribute the leavening. Add the shortening and butter and toss to coat the fat a bit with the flour. Using your fingertips, gently work the fats into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with some pea-size chunks of fat.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg, and add this to the flour mixture. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Then, gently work through the mixture with your hands to separate any wet patches and bring the dough together.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, sprinkle with the minced thyme and knead gently until it just holds together. Pat it into a rough 1/2-inch-tall disk and cut it into 7 biscuits using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter. (Bake off the scraps and use for croutons in the Broccoli Salad recipe.)
• To assemble: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Top the filling in the skillet with the biscuit rounds. Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle them with sea salt.
• Bake the potpie for 25 to 30 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown.

MOM'S FABULOUS CHICKEN POT PIE WITH BISCUIT CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook the onion, celery, and carrots until the celery and carrots are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, parsley, thyme and flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the vegetables and begins to fry, about 5 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, and mix in the chicken meat.
• Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 2-quart baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with water; brush egg yolk on the biscuits.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

EASY POT PIE WITH PIE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes. Drain and season potatoes with salt.
• Combine cooked potatoes, gravy, peas and carrots, and chicken in a bowl.
• Press 1 crust into a 9-inch pie pan. Pour potato mixture into crust and cover with second crust. Pinch edges to close pie, and trim off any excess from edges. Make a small cut in the center of the crust. Brush the top with beaten egg.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 35 minutes.

CHEESY BISCUIT POT PIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven according to the temperature on the biscuit tube.
• Heat the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with the Italian seasoning and a pinch of salt. Sear, covered, on one side for 5 minutes. Flip, cover and sear for 4 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and let rest a few minutes, then give it a good chop.
• Combine the chicken with the vegetables, milk, flour and some salt in a large bowl.
• Roll out each biscuit on a lightly-floured surface until about 5 inches wide, then lightly press each one into a ramekin. Evenly fill each ramekin with the chicken and veggie mixture, then top with the cheese. Bake until the cheese starts to brown and bubble and the biscuit dough is cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes. Garnish with the parsley.
