Number Of Ingredients 17

butter-flavored cooking spray (optional)
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced fine
1 medium onion, coarsely diced
2 medium firm cooking apples, coarsely diced (like Granny Smith or Braeburn)
1 lb chicken-apple sausages, sliced into 1 inch pieces
1/2 teaspoon celery salt (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon ground thyme (to taste)
1/4 teaspoon white pepper (to taste)
1/2 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 tablespoons white wine or 2 tablespoons cider
3 medium russet potatoes, coarsely diced
2 teaspoons butter
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon salt (to taste)
2 teaspoons parsley flakes

Steps:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Boil the potatoes in salted water until fork tender.
Heat the oil in a skillet and saute the garlic, onion, and apple until slightly carmelized and the apple is starting to soften.
Keep the potatoes warm if they are cooked.
Put the onion mixture in a medium bowl and keep warm. Add additional oil to the pan if needed and slightly brown the sausage.
Mix the sausage with the onion mixture and the celery salt, thyme, pepper, salt, and wine/cider.
Put the sausage mixture into a pie plate.
Mash the potatoes with the butter, milk, sour cream, salt, and parsley.
Top the pie with the mashed potatoes and seal the edges with the potatoes. Spray lightly with the cooking spray, if you want.
Bake for 45 minutes or until the potatoes are starting to brown.
Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
