Love That Leftover Turkey Pot Pie Recipes

TURKEY POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F. Whisk egg with 1 tablespoon water. Set aside.
• Cook onion in butter over medium low heat until tender, about 5 minutes. Add flour, poultry seasoning, thyme, salt & pepper. Cook 2 minutes more.
• Whisk in chicken broth and milk a little bit at a time stirring after each addition. It will seem thick at first but will smooth out. Bring to a boil over medium heat, simmer 1 minute and remove from heat. Stir in turkey and vegetables.
• Line a 9" pie plate with one of the crusts. Fill with turkey filling. Brush edges of crust with egg wash and top with second crust. Pinch edges to seal and cut a few slits to vent pie. Brush with egg wash.
• Bake 35-40 minutes or until lightly browned and filling is bubbly.
• Cool for 10-15 minutes before cutting.

TURKEY POT PIE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients. Position a rack in the bottom of the oven and preheat to 400 F.
• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the diced onion and celery and cook, stirring, for about 5 minutes, until the onions are translucent.
• Add the flour, kosher salt, poultry seasoning, and pepper to the vegetable mixture; continue to cook, stirring, for 2 minutes.
• Gradually stir the broth and half-and-half or cream into the roux mixture and continue cooking until thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Add the peas and carrots, green beans, and chopped leftover turkey; stir to blend and then taste and adjust the seasonings. Set aside.
• Line a 9-inch pie plate with a pie pastry sheet and add the turkey filling mixture.
• Place the second pastry sheet over the filling; seal the edge and crimp as desired.
• For the egg wash, whisk 1 egg with 1 tablespoon of water.
• Brush the egg wash lightly over the top crust. Using a sharp knife, cut several small steam vents in the top of the crust.
• Bake the turkey pot pie in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Check for excessive browning and place a pie shield or foil ring over the edge of the crust if needed. Continue to bake for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling. Remove the pie to a rack and let it cool for 5 minutes before slicing and serving.

DAD'S LEFTOVER TURKEY POT PIE

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C).
• Place the peas and carrots, green beans, and celery into a saucepan; cover with water, bring to a boil, and simmer over medium-low heat until the celery is tender, about 8 minutes. Drain the vegetables in a colander set in the sink, and set aside.
• Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, and cook the onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in 2/3 cup of flour, salt, black pepper, celery seed, onion powder, and Italian seasoning; slowly whisk in the chicken broth and milk until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens. Remove from heat; stir the cooked vegetables and turkey meat into the filling until well combined.
• Fit 2 pie crusts into the bottom of 2 9-inch pie dishes. Spoon half the filling into each pie crust, then top each pie with another crust. Pinch and roll the top and bottom crusts together at the edge of each pie to seal, and cut several small slits into the top of the pies with a sharp knife to release steam.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the crusts are golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. If the crusts are browning too quickly, cover the pies with aluminum foil after about 15 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
