Grams Chicken Pot Pie Updated Recipes

Steps:

• In a large heavy pot, place chicken and water to cover. Bring to a boil and let simmer uncovered for 30 minutes, adding water as needed. When chicken is boiled and tender, pick all the meat off of the bones.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Open 1 can of cream of mushroom soup and pour into a small saucepan. Add frozen peas and carrots, water and chicken bouillon to taste. Simmer all together until the soup is smooth. Add chicken meat and mix all together.
• Pour chicken and soup mixture into one pie crust and cover with the other crust. Seal the edges and cut a small steam hole in the top crust. Bake in the preheated oven 30 to 35 minutes or until crust is brown. Yummy!

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400ºF.
• Cook and stir chicken in dressing in large skillet on medium heat 5 min. or until done. Stir in vegetables and soup. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with VELVEETA.
• Unfold pastry sheet; place over chicken mixture. Fold under edges of pastry; press onto top of baking dish to seal. Brush with egg. Cut several slits in pastry to permit steam to escape. Place dish on baking sheet.
• Bake 30 min. or until crust is deep golden brown. Let stand 5 min. before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil and garlic together over low heat. When it sizzles, add bacon and onions and cook, stirring often, until fat is rendered and bacon is golden brown. Adjust the heat so the bacon slowly gives up its fat. Remove garlic clove and add mushrooms. Cook, stirring, until mushrooms are browned and slightly softened.
• In a sealable plastic bag, combine flour, thyme, paprika, 2 large pinches salt and 1 large pinch pepper. Add chicken and shake well to coat.
• In the skillet with the bacon and mushrooms, add butter and melt over medium heat. Add chicken pieces and any flour that remains in the bag. Cook, stirring, until chicken pieces are golden and the flour on the bottom of the pan is browned. Pour in stock, Marsala and vinegar. Scrape bottom of pan, and let simmer about 5 minutes, until thickened. Taste for salt, pepper and vinegar and adjust the seasonings. Turn off heat and stir in parsley.
• Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Transfer chicken and sauce to 9-inch round pie dish or 8-inch square baking dish. Roll out pie crust to desired shape and size. Drape crust over filling, making a few slits or decorative holes on top. Tuck edges down around filling and brush crust with egg wash. If the dish is piled high with filling, place on a baking sheet to catch any overflow before transferring to oven.
• Bake until crust is browned and filling is bubbling, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Let cool slightly, at least 10 minutes, before serving with a big spoon. If desired, garnish each serving with parsley.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken; cook and stir for 5 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through.
• Stir in frozen vegetables, soup, and Velveeta. Stir until the Velveeta is melted.
• Spoon into a greased 8x8 baking dish.
• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Unfold the pastry sheet, and place it over the chicken mixture. Fold the edges of the pastry under itself, inside the lip of the dish, and press the pastry somewhat against the edges of the dish to seal (if you can - I am never super successful at doing this, mine always kinda "floats" on top of the chicken mixture).
• Brush the top of the pastry with an egg.
• Cut several slits in the pastry to permit steam to escape.
• Place the dish on a baking sheet, and bake for 30 minutes, or until golden brown. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400 degrees F.
• Cook and stir chicken in hot dressing in large skillet on medium heat 5 min. or until done. Stir in vegetables and soup. Spoon into 9-inch square baking dish sprayed with cooking spray; top with cheese.
• Roll pastry on lightly floured surface to 10-inch square; place over chicken mixture. Fold under edges of pastry; press onto top of baking dish to seal. Brush pastry with egg. Cut several slits in pastry to permit steam to escape. Place dish on baking sheet.
• Bake 30 min. or until crust is deep golden brown. Let stand 5 min. before serving.

Steps:

• To make the pastry: Combine the flour, salt and lard in a mixing bowl. Using two knives or a pastry blender, cut the flour and lard together, reducing the lard to pieces about the size of large peas. Add the ice water, mix together and gather the mass into a ball. The mixture should be quite moist and pliable, but not sticky. If sticky, knead in a little more flour. Cover the pastry in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour, or until firm.
• Divide the pastry in half and roll each piece out on a floured board to about 1/8-inch thickness and about 12 inches in diameter. Fit one into a 9-inch shallow Pyrex pie dish, trimming the excess. Reserve the other pastry circle for the top. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.
• Season the chicken legs with salt and pepper and place them, skin side up, in a small roasting pan. Bake for 35 minutes on the top rack of the oven. Remove from the oven and cool. Remove any fat from the pan and de glaze the cooking juices with 1/4 cup of water. Set aside.
• Remove all the meat from the legs and discard the skin and bones. Dice the meat and set aside (you should have about 2 heaping cups). Melt the butter in a skillet. Add the carrots, leeks, mushrooms, 1/2 cup water, thyme and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover and let the vegetables sweat for 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and cook for 3 minutes. Then stir in 3/4 cup of milk and the deglazed cooking juices. Raise the heat and allow the mixture to thicken, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat and simmer another 3 minutes.
• Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the chicken and the peas, adjusting the seasonings. Pour the mixture into the pastry shell. Cover with the remaining circle of dough, trim off the excess and press the edges gently with the tines of a fork to seal. Combine the egg with the remaining milk and brush over the entire surface of the pie. Cut a small hole in the center of the dough and bake for 50 minutes or until brown on top. Remove from the oven and cool for 10 minutes before serving.
