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.

PERFECT CHICKEN (OR TURKEY) POT PIE

Steps:

• Find your favorite pie crust recipe. I highly recommend a homemade crust, but if you're pie-crust challenged, a store-bought will do. ;) I make my pie crust a day ahead and keep in fridge till I'm ready. If you're making a double crust pie, go ahead and roll out your bottom crust and place in your baking dish. Cover well with plastic wrap and keep in fridge up to one day prior to use. I leave the top crust in a ball, wrapped in plastic wrap and take out while I'm cooking the rest of the ingredients. Roll out the top crust when you're ready to use it. Do not cook the crust beforehand.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. In a large saucepan, toss in your frozen peas and sliced carrots. Pour the chicken broth over them and cook on high heat. Cover when it comes to a boil, and cook for about 10-12 minutes on medium-high or until carrots are tender (not mushy!) Don't throw out that broth when veggies are done!
• While the vegetables are cooking, shred your rotisserie chicken or turkey. Chop your leeks. When the veggies are done, strain your liquid from your veggies into a bowl (SAVE your chicken broth!)
• In the same saucepan cook the leeks in the butter over medium heat, stirring occasionally until leeks are slightly soft, and butter has started to brown. Whisk in the flour, salt, a little pepper, and poultry seasoning. Add the chicken broth, half and half, and apple juice VERY slowly, whisking the whole time over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook at least 10 minutes until you have a very thick gravy. Make sure your filling is thick or you'll end up with chicken soup instead of chicken pot pie! Reduce heat to low.
• Add your shredded chicken or turkey and your cooked vegetables. Stir around and remove from heat.
• Pour pot pie mixture into your bottom crust (if making double crust pie) or into your baking dish of choice. Top with your pie crust, and cut 3 slits in the top. With a pastry brush, brush crust and edges with beaten egg. (Don't have a pastry brush? Leafy greens make a good makeshift brush, or just use a bunched up paper towel dabbed in the egg wash and blot it on the pie.) Bake in preheated oven for 35 minutes or until crust is a golden brown. Makes great leftovers!
• Enjoy! I serve with applesauce on the side.
