Boscoe Cooks Herb Crusted Chicken Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Sauté chicken on Med High in the olive oil, using a Dutch Oven.
• Make sure the bottom starts to brown, but NOT burn. Occasionally add a splash of sherry to prevent burning (the first 1/4) and deglaze the pan. You will start to get a nice sauce on the bottom. Sauté till chicken has a nice colour on the outside, but still raw on the inside. About 10 minutes.
• Add the chicken broth, the last 1/4 of the sherry, whole onion pierced with the cloves, the celery, the carrot, the savory/bay leaves, and the salt/pepper.
• Simmer for 2 hours on Low. It should be slightly simmering.
• Once done, reserve 2 cups of the broth. Remove chicken and cut into pieces. Let cool. Discard everything else or use it for a soup.
• Sauté the carrots, celery and mushrooms in the butter until softened in a Dutch Oven. About 10 minutes.
• Add the chicken broth and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Remove vegetables from the Dutch Oven.
• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Mix the flour with the milk. Slowly add this to the chicken broth and blend using a whisk. Heat slowly on Low. Stir continuously until the mixture has thickened to your preferred texture. Don't make it too runny. It should stick nicely to a spoon when dipped.
• Add the chicken and vegetables back to the Dutch Oven, with the Sherry and Pimentos.
• Mix together gently so as not to break up the chicken pieces.
• Pour mixture into a casserole dish. Roll out the pasty and place on top. Place over the edge and press to the dish. Brush the milk on top of the pastry.
• Place dish in oven and cook until pastry is golden brown. Between 40 and 50 minutes.
• Serve with nice French crusty bread.

Steps:

• Position a rack in the center of the oven, and preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chicken as you see fit, and add it to the skillet. Cook, stirring quite often, just until it turns opaque and loses its raw look, about 8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate.
• Add the butter to the skillet, and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion and celery and cook, stirring often, until the vegetables soften, about 3 minutes. Sprinkle the flour over the mixed vegetables and mix well. Add the broth and half-and-half, and bring to a boil, stirring up the browned bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Cook until the sauce is slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the reserved chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper as desired. Pour into an ungreased 2 1/2 to 3 quart round casserole, or, if you don't have one (like me!), pour into whatever casseroles you have.
• Mix the Bisquick and buttermilk to make a soft, slightly sticky dough. Drop six large spoonfuls of the dough over the chicken mixture (or, if you're using two casseroles, make eight or nine smaller biscuits).
• Pop the casserole(s) in the oven, and bake for 25 to 35 minutes, until biscuits are golden brown.
• You're done!

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook the onion, celery, and carrots until the celery and carrots are tender, about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in peas, parsley, thyme and flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the vegetables and begins to fry, about 5 minutes. Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Season to taste with salt and black pepper, and mix in the chicken meat.
• Transfer the chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 2-quart baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling. In a small bowl, beat egg yolk with water; brush egg yolk on the biscuits.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbling, 20 to 25 minutes. Let rest 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. In 4-quart saucepan or Dutch oven, heat chicken, vegetables, soup and broth to boiling stirring occasionally. Boil and stir 1 minute. Spread in ungreased 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish.
• In medium bowl, stir together remaining ingredients except parsley; pour evenly over soup mixture (crust will rise during baking).
• Bake uncovered 30 to 40 minutes or until golden brown. Sprinkle with parsley. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Cook and drain carrots and peas. Set aside. Defrost chicken until warm. Set aside.
• Heat oven to 375°F In 2-quart saucepan, mix flour, cornstarch, salt, bouillon cubes, pepper, and milk with a wire whisk until blended. The bouillon cubes may take a while to dissolve. That's okay. Next stir in onion. Cook over medium heat 4 to 6 minutes, stirring constantly, until thickened.
• Stir in soup and sour cream. Add chicken and vegetables; mix well. Cook, stirring frequently, until thoroughly heated.
• Unroll 1 pie crust and fit the bottom and sides of a greased 2-quart round casserole. You may have to use a rolling pin to make the crust larger. Use a basting brush to lightly coat the crust with the egg whites. Pour the mixture into the casserole dish and distribute evenly. Next, unroll second pie crust and place over hot filling. Seal edges of the 2 crusts together and flute as desired. Brush the remainder of the egg whites on the top crust. Cut a small 'X' in the center of the top crust.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until crust is golden brown and mixture is bubbly. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.
