OLD-FASHIONED CHICKEN POT PIE WITH SWEET POTATO CRUST



Old-Fashioned Chicken Pot Pie With Sweet Potato Crust image

The sweet potato gives a lovely orange color to the crust and an unusual flavor to pot pie. A little time-consuming to chop all the vegetables, so you could use already chopped frozen or canned vegetables for the most part (cooked according to package directions) to make it a little quicker and easier. Can be made ahead through step 14 and covered with tinfoil and frozen at that point. Thaw it in the refrigerator when you're ready to cook it, remove tinfoil and follow step 15 for cooking (may take an extra 5-10 minutes to cook through).

2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups sweet potato puree (sweet potatoes roasted, peeled and pureed in food processor)
1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 medium Spanish onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 to 5 cups whole milk, heated
3/4 pound cremini mushrooms, quartered and sauteed until golden brown

Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped flat-leaf parsley

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large bowl combine flour with salt, and pepper. Cut in the butter with a fork or pastry blender until the mixture looks crumbly.
  • In another bowl combine eggs, milk, and sweet potato puree. Add to the flour mixture and stir gently until combined. Don't overmix!

Bobby Flay's Smoked Chicken Pot Pie with Sweet Potato Crust image

Categories     Sauce     Chicken     Potato     Bake     Pastry

Yield serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 25

Sweet Potato Crust
1 pound (3 3/4 cups) all-purpose flour, plus more for rolling
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into pieces, cold
1 large egg
1/2 cup whole milk
1 cup sweet potato puree (from 1 large sweet potato, roasted, peeled, and pureed in a food processor)
Filling
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) unsalted butter
1 medium Spanish onion, finely diced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups whole milk, or more if needed, hot
12 ounces cremini mushrooms, quartered and sautéed until golden brown
2 turnips, peeled, cut into medium dice, blanched, and drained
2 carrots, peeled, cut into matchsticks, blanched and drained
1/2 cup frozen red pearl onions, blanched and drained
1/2 cup frozen white pearl onions, blanched and drained
1 cup frozen peas, blanched and drained
1 roasted (3-pound) chicken (see Note), shredded
2 teaspoons pureed chipotle in adobo, or 2 teaspoons smoked sweet Spanish paprika (see Note)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves
2 large eggs, beaten with a few tablespoons cold water, for an egg wash

Steps:

  • To make the crust, stir the flour, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Stir the egg, milk, and sweet potato puree together in a bowl. Add the mixture to the flour, and gently mix with a rubber spatula until just combined. Transfer the mixture to a lightly floured surface, and lightly knead until the dough just comes together. Form into a round and flatten it slightly. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour and up to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.
  • To make the filling, melt the butter in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft, 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the flour and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden brown. Slowly whisk in the hot milk and cook until thickened. Reduce the heat and cook for 5 minutes, whisking occasionally. If the mixture is too thick, thin it with a little extra milk.
  • Add the mushrooms, turnips, carrots, onions, peas, chicken, and chipotle, if using, to the sauce and fold gently to combine. Season the filling with salt and pepper, and stir in the parsley.
  • Divide the dough in half, and roll each half out on a lightly floured surface until 1/8 inch thick. Invert individual heatproof bowls on the pastry sheet, and using a sharp knife, cut circles around the outside of the bowls that are slightly larger than the bowls. Fill the bowls three-quarters full with the chicken filling, making sure each serving has a nice amount of chicken, vegetables, and broth. Carefully cap each bowl with a pastry round, pressing the dough around the rim to form a seal. Brush the tops with the egg wash and season with salt and pepper. Use a paring knife to make a small slit in the center of the dough. (Alternatively, roll one large crust and use it to top a family-style pot pie in a 10-inch baking dish.)
  • Place the bowls on baking sheets, and bake until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, 15 to 18 minutes for individual pies and 25 to 30 minutes for one large pot pie. Remove from the oven and let sit for 5 minutes before serving.

CHICKEN, SWEET POTATO AND SWISS CHARD PHYLLO POT PIE



Chicken, Sweet Potato and Swiss Chard Phyllo Pot Pie image

Provided by Megan Mitchell

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h5m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs, preferably organic
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 to 4 tablespoons ghee
1 small yellow onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tablespoons sage, minced
1/2 cup dry vermouth
1 large bunch Swiss chard, stems removed and leaves roughly chopped
1 large sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces (about 2 heaping cups)
1/2 cup chicken stock or low-sodium chicken broth
One 8.8-ounce container mascarpone cheese
3/4 cup packed grated Parmesan cheese (freshly grated with a rasp grater)
Ten 9-by-14-inch frozen phyllo sheets, thawed
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Flaky sea salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Heat a large, shallow 10-inch cast-iron pan or Dutch oven up over medium-high heat.
  • While the pan heats up, cut the chicken thighs into 1 1/2-inch pieces and season liberally with kosher salt and pepper.
  • Once the pan is heated, add 2 tablespoons of the ghee and the chicken in a single layer, working in batches and adding more ghee, if needed. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, flipping the chicken once halfway, until browned evenly. Remove with a slotted spoon or tongs to a plate (the chicken will not be cooked through).
  • Reduce the heat to medium; add the onion, garlic and sage and cook, stirring, until fragrant and the onions start to soften, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the vermouth, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  • Add the chard to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until it starts to wilt, 3 to 4 minutes. Next, add the sweet potato and stock. Stir together and season liberally with kosher salt and pepper. Bring to a simmer, then stir in the mascarpone and Parmesan. Return the chicken to the pan, stir then remove from the heat.
  • Place the phyllo sheets on a baking sheet and cover with a damp towel to prevent them from drying out. Place 1 of the phyllo sheets on a clean work surface then brush or dab with some of the melted butter. Crumple the sheet up like a piece of paper and place on top of the chicken filling. Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets until the entire surface of the filling is covered, overlapping the sheets, if necessary. Drizzle any remaining butter on top and sprinkle with flaky sea salt.
  • Transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 10 minutes. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F and bake until bubbly and the top is golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. If the filling under the crust looks too wet, cook on the stove over medium heat to reduce some of the liquid, 5 to 10 minutes. Serve the pot pie in the pan.
