Chicken Pot Pie Without The Crust Recipes

CRUSTLESS CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• In a dutch oven or a large deep sauté pan, heat olive oil and butter over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add onions, carrots, and celery with a pinch of salt. Cook until tender, about 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in garlic and Italian seasoning, and cook for about 30 seconds or until fragrant while stirring non-stop. Add flour and cook for about 1 minute, while stirring the veggies around.
• Add chicken broth while stirring and scraping to loosen browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Add milk. Season with salt and generously with black pepper, to taste. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 3 minutes. It will thicken.
• Stir in chicken and peas. Simmer for about 7-10 minutes until all of the vegetables are tender. Stir in parsley and serve.

CHICKEN IN A POT, NO PIE

Steps:

• Heat a large, deep skillet or a medium soup pot over medium high heat. Add extra-virgin olive oil and butter. Melt butter into oil then add the potatoes, onions, celery and carrots, adding them to the pot as you chop them. Add bay leaf and season veggies with salt, pepper and poultry seasoning, cook 5 to 6 minutes to soften them a bit. Add flour and cook another minute then whisk in wine and cook off a minute more. Add stock and put a lid on the pan or pot and raise heat to bring to a quick boil. Slide in chicken and cook 5 minutes. Stir in asparagus and cook 3 minutes more. Turn off heat and add the peas and tarragon. Stir to combine and adjust salt and pepper, to your taste. Ladle into bowls and serve with crusty bread for mopping.

CHICKEN POT PIE

Steps:

• Make the dough: Combine the flour, sugar, salt, thyme and chives in a food processor and pulse a few times to evenly combine. Add the butter and pulse 7 or 8 times until the butter is in pea-size bits. Add the vinegar and 2 tablespoons ice water and pulse just until the dough starts to come together into a ball. (Add 1 to 2 more tablespoons ice water if the dough is too dry.) Form the dough into a disk. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate while you make the filling, at least 1 hour.
• Make the filling: Pile the 2 crushed garlic cloves, bay leaf, lemon peel, peppercorns and coriander seeds on a square of cheesecloth. Bring the corners together to form a pouch and tie with a piece of kitchen twine.
• Combine the chicken, chicken broth and cheesecloth pouch in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a rapid simmer and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove the chicken to a plate using tongs. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve into a medium bowl; discard the cheesecloth pouch. Wipe out the saucepan; return the strained broth to the pan and keep at a very gentle simmer over low heat. Shred the chicken using 2 forks.
• Melt the butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 10 to 12 minutes. Add the potato, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook until the potato is slightly softened, about 5 minutes. Add the 3 minced garlic cloves and the thyme and cook until softened, 1 minute. Add the vinegar and cook until the liquid has evaporated, about 1 minute. Stir in the flour until the vegetables are evenly coated. Pour in 1 3/4 cups of the strained chicken broth (save the rest for another use). Bring to a gentle boil and cook until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the heavy cream. Add the shredded chicken, parsley and peas and stir to combine and heat through; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the filling to a 9 1/2-inch deep-dish pie plate and let cool until no longer steaming, about 20 minutes.
• Bake the pot pie: Preheat the oven to 375˚ F. On a lightly floured surface, roll out the pie dough into an 11-inch round, about 1/8 inch thick. Place it over the filling. Roll the overhanging dough under itself and crimp the edges with your fingers. Cut vents in the top of the dough. Beat the egg and 1 teaspoon water in a small bowl. Brush the crust all over with the egg wash. Place the pot pie on a rimmed baking sheet and bake until the crust is a deep golden brown, 50 minutes to 1 hour. Let cool 20 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN POT PIE WITHOUT THE CRUST

Steps:

• Place chicken in large pot.
• Steam red potato cubes in small amount of water in microwave for 4 to 5 minutes and place in the pot with chicken.
• Steam celery, leek, and red bell pepper in small amount of water in microwave for 2 minutes and place in pot.
• Cook mixed vegetables in microwave according to package directions and add to pot. I use PictSweet All Natural Steamables and place the unopened bag in the microwave for 6 or 7 minutes, then I cut open the bag and add vegetables to the pot.
• Cut cheddar cheese into small pieces and place in pot with other ingredients.
• Place cream of chicken soup, half and half, curry powder, and parmesan cheese in small mixing bowl and stir until well blended.
• Pour sauce into pot with other ingredients and stir gently to combine and until cheese has melted.
• Place pot on burner with low heat for approximately 30 minutes, until heated thoroughly. Be careful not to heat too quickly as mixture will stick and burn. Stir gently every ten minutes or so to keep ingredients from sticking.
