Sausage And Chicken Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Grease 2-quart casserole with shortening or cooking spray. In 10-inch skillet, cook sausage, carrots, celery and onion over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until sausage is browned and vegetables are tender; drain. Stir in chicken, soup and 1/2 cup milk.
• Place flour in large bowl. With pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Add 2/3 cup milk; stir until dough leaves side of bowl. Press half of dough into bottom of casserole. Pour sausage mixture over dough. Drop remaining dough by tablespoonfuls over sausage mixture.
• Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until sausage mixture is hot and bubbly and biscuits are golden brown.

Steps:

• 1. Cube chicken meat and set aside. Add butter & sausage to fry pan. Brown sausage. Remove sausage and drain fat back into fry pan. You are going to make gravy. Add flour to same fry pan and stir flour into drippings. Brown flour, about 6 minutes. Add milk, salt and pepper. Stir until thickened. Add more milk if needed. ( I add a little powdered coffee creamer, about 1 tablespoon, to make the gravy a little richer or add half-n-half) Add sausage, chicken meat (no bones),and vegtables (thawed peas) Mix.
• 2. Pour into a buttered baking dish. Add pastry on top. Bake at 425 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
• 3. PASTRY CRUST: In a food processor, combine the butter, cream cheese, flour and salt. Pulse, pulse, pulse until the ingredients start to come together and resembles Parmesian. Add egg yolk and 1 tablespoon water. Pulse a couple more times until the ingredients start to form a ball. Stop. If mixture is exceedingly wet, add more flour. If the mix is dry, add a few more drops of water. When the mixture has come together into a ball, turn out onto floured work surface and knead it a couple of times to help it come together. Dust with flour, form into a disk and wrap it in plastic wrap. Refrigerate until read to use. (Day ahead of time OK) Remove from refrigerator for 20 minutes before rolling. Place disc of dough between 2 sheets of plastic and roll out the size of your baking dish. Fold pastry in half and cut in vents. Lay over baking dish and unfold. Tuck edges in, or crimp edge. Brush with egg wash.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Place 1 pie crust into an ungreased 9-inch pie plate.
• Mix prepared sausage, 5 eggs, mixed vegetables and cheese together in bowl; season with salt and pepper. Pour into crust. Top with remaining pie crust and crimp edges to seal. Cut 3 slits in top crust. Brush with remaining 1 beaten egg.
• Bake for 35 to 37 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F. If needed, cover pot pie with foil to prevent top crust from over browning.
• Let stand for 10 minutes before cutting and serving.
