All-American Turkey Potpie Recipe image

Ever since my sister-in-law shared this recipe with me, I haven't made any other kind of potpie. The crust is very easy to work with. ?Laureen Naylor, Factoryville, Pennsylvania

Number Of Ingredients 22

2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup finely shredded cheddar cheese
2/3 cup shortening
1 tablespoon cold butter
3 to 4 tablespoons cold water
FILLING:
1 cup cubed peeled potatoes
1/2 cup thinly sliced carrots
1/3 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup chopped onion
1 tablespoon butter
1 garlic clove, minced
1 cup chicken broth
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup 2% milk
1-1/2 cups cubed cooked turkey
1/2 cup frozen peas, thawed
1/2 cup frozen corn, thawed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dried tarragon
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Steps:

  • In a food processor, combine flour and salt; cover and pulse to blend. Add cheese; pulse until fine crumbs form. Add shortening and butter; pulse until coarse crumbs form. While processing, gradually add water until dough forms a ball.
  • Divide dough in half with one ball slightly larger than the other; wrap in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • For filling, in a large saucepan, saute the potatoes, carrots, celery and onion in butter for 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in broth; cover and cook for 10 minutes or until vegetables are tender.
  • Combine flour and milk until smooth; gradually add to vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Add the remaining ingredients; simmer 5 minutes longer.
  • Roll out larger pastry ball to fit a 9-in. pie plate; transfer to pie plate. Trim pastry even with edge. Pour hot turkey filling into crust. Roll out remaining pastry to fit top of pie; place over filling. Trim, seal and flute edges. Cut slits in top or make decorative cutouts in pastry.
  • Bake at 350° for 35-45 minutes or until crust is light golden brown.
  • Yield: 6 servings.
