Tasty and filling, this potpie is a perfect way to use up leftover chicken or turkey. It takes some time to prepare, but luckily, I have five children at home to help me. This dish travels well and is ideal to take to a potluck or family reunion. Ingredients:
2 celery ribs, diced |
2 medium carrots, diced |
1 small onion, chopped |
3 tablespoons butter |
1/4 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 cup 2% milk |
1 cup chicken broth |
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted |
4 cups cubed cooked chicken |
crust: |
1-1/2 cups king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
3/4 teaspoon baking powder |
1 teaspoon salt |
3 tablespoons cold butter |
1/2 cup 2% milk |
2 cups (8 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, saute the celery, carrots and onion in butter until tender. Stir in flour and salt until blended; gradually add milk and broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in soup and chicken. Spoon into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish; set aside.
2. For crust, combine the flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in butter until crumbly. Add milk, tossing with a fork until mixture forms a soft dough; shape into a ball.
3. On a lightly floured surface, roll into a 12-in. x 10-in. rectangle. Sprinkle with cheese. Roll up jelly-roll style, starting from a long side. Cut into 12 slices. Place cut side down over chicken mixture. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until the crust is lightly browned. Yield: 6-8 servings.
