All right guys comfort food season is here the weather’s been terrible it’s been cold and rainy and it got me thinking about some of my childhood favorites one of which used to be the banquet chicken pot pie the type that would burn your mouth but still be

Frozen in the middle well today I’m going to show you guys how to make it homade for the most part we’re going to take a couple shortcuts and make it nice quick and easy and inexpensive for you meet me in the kitchen let’s make it happen all right so first things first

We’re going to go ahead and get our prep work done the first thing I want to do is start on our stock NOW earlier I said take a few shortcuts one of the ways you can get more bang for your buck is making a makeshift quick and easy stock

It’s not making it completely from scratch but this is how I like to do it just to Jazz it up a little bit adds tons of flavor we’re going in with two onions you can leave the skin on when you’re doing this no need to remove it

Is actually give your broth or your stock a little bit of color so just cut two onions in half we got some carrots we got some garlic we’re using the chicken carcass from the rotisserie chicken that’s one of the shortcuts that we’re taking is using rotisserie chicken

From the store instead of making our own and then for added flavor we got some smoked turkey wings to me that’s going to add a element of flavor to your stock that’s reminiscent of like the holidays Savory super delicious and now my friends it’s time to prep the veggies

That’s actually going to go into the pot pie so here we have uh onion and a half we’re going to dice that up if you have a large onion you can just use one leave the root intact you guys have seen me do this before but this the easiest way to dice

An onion now earlier we were talking about a few shortcuts and ways to make this dish a little bit more uh flavorful so the shortcut being the rotisserie chicken and the puff pastry now if you ask me is homemade puff pastry better than store bought the answer is yes but

Is it worth all the extra work in my opinion that answer is no but making the stock the way we’re doing today I think that is the more bang for your buck you’re going to get a more flavorful product a more flavorful pot pie that way and the store bought puff pastry is

Fine so once you have your Mir P prepped which is celery onions and carrots we’re going to go ahead and prep our mushrooms make sure you clean them wash them off and then hit them with a paper towel make sure you get all the dirt off of

There if you don’t like mushrooms you should grow up or you can leave them out of the dish but we’re going to add them to ours so after a couple hours you should have the most flavorful chicken broth you ever tasted this is perfect for things like Clic greens butter beans stuffing

During the holidays or you can use it for any recipes like chicken pot pie we’re going tohe we’re going to go ahead and strain it we need three cups for this we’ll save the rest you can season it to taste if it needs a little salt you can add that but

We added that chicken buan powder shouldn’t need much I’ve already tasted it you can also take that uh smoked turkey and add it to your pot pie if you want to I’m actually making a recipe after this video that we’re going to use that for So today we’re just using the

Rotisserie chicken next up we’re going to add 6 tbspoon of butter to a skillet over medium heat don’t call my heart doctor we let that butter melt and then we’re going in with our mepa plus the mushrooms allow that to cook down sweat down get nice and tender then we’re

Going to start to season It Up Add our garlic paste Italian paste paste then add our flour which is going to be a thickening agent and then that sort of kind of homemade chicken stock we just made trust me on that guys any recipe that calls for chicken stock if

You got a couple extra minutes or a couple extra hours I should say it makes a huge difference you can put that in the refrigerator and use it anytime you need to in goes the veggies for health to offset the damn near stick of butter now

We’re going to begin to season this so I’m going in with my allpurpose seasoning which is a blend of salt salt pepper garlic onion powder things like that and a little Lemon Bay kind of almost like some Cajun flavors with a little bit of Pop of a lemon uh lemon

Zest pairs nicely with chicken you can use whatever Cajun blend you like any allpurpose seasoning you like or you can keep it real simple just a little salt and pepper you definitely want to season it with something though the salt in the seasoning is going to help the water

Kind of expel from those veggies get them to sweat down you want to season all the way through next we’re going in with our garlic paste and Italian paste about a tablespoon of each and then a teaspoon of better than bullan chicken base I would suggest using a low sodium

Variety if you have it if you have any sodium concerns they definitely have a low sodium option out there for you guys low word sodium cuz it’s still kind of high in sodium if we’re being honest but this is a big meal lots of servings probably you know at least 10 servings

Here so not super concerned with that but taste as you go and adjust the flavor to your preference as I always say get that worked in once you notice that the veggies is starting to get tender that’s where I’m to go in with the allpurpose flour as an optional

Ingredient I like to add just a pinch of red pepper flakes just for a little bit of background heat just going to add a little bit of you know a nice element to the flavor profile plus about a teaspoon of worst word in the world sauce again going to add some

Umami we’re going to give that a mix and then we’re going in with 1/3 cup of allpurpose flour after you cook down the allpurpose flour for a minute or so we’re going in with 3 cups of chicken broth bring that up to a boil you should start to notice

That everything is thickening up a bit like us after the holiday we’re going to go ahead and allow this to simmer and reduce it’ll thicken We’ll add in the cream the chicken the peas all that good stuff and you’re going to taste it make sure the flavor is just right and then

We’ll get to work on our puff pastry now it’s time to add the protein to the party we’re going in with our rotisserie chicken again one of the cheat codes or you know ways to speed this process up a little bit you can make your own chicken or use leftover chicken whatever you

Want but in a dish like pot pie fresh you know roasted chicken you know probably is a little Overkill unless you’re just trying to go all out and impress everybody leftover chicken rotisserie chicken something like that’s perfect to be repurposed for something like a pot pie so we got that in there

Next we’re going in with our heavy cream and then last but not least we’re going to add our peas cuz we’re adults and peas are good for you at least that’s what they used to tell us it’s looking like pop pie already going to hit that with just a pinch of

Parsley for a pop of color and then obviously the the peas are going to add more green to the party as well next up we’re going to work on our puff pastry again store bought is homemade better yes marginally particularly for something like a pot pie if you were talking about

Baking then I may feel differently about it if you’re going to invest the time into making something homemade I think your best bet is to do it with the stock like we did today and then cut a couple corners with the rotisserie chicken and the puff pastry so we’re going to roll

This out we’re going to cut it into squares and then we’ll layer it on top of our pot pie you could also use biscuit dough you can use pie crust a number of different ways to do this but today we’re using puff pastry if I can get it off

Here just even it out try to make sure it’s not going to stick which should have put a little flower down this will end up in the blooper reel I’m sure there we go going to grab a pizza cutter even her out a little bit and it

Just cut squares doesn’t have to be perfect it’s all going to bake together puff up hence the name puff pastry quick reminder guys all the specific measurements and ingredients for this recipe can be found in the description box below make sure you check that out once you got your filling and your 12-in

Cast iron skillet we’re going to start adding that puff pastry I’m going to start in the middle no right or wrong way to do this guys you just want to cover you know most of the surface area you can try to make a cute little design if you

Want but we’re going to let it overlap a little bit and as it bakes it’ll all kind of come together a little bit more next up we’re going to take one egg and just brush the egg wash over the puff pastry just to help encourage it to

Brown up nicely get nice and crispy we going to pop this in a 400° oven for about 30 to 35 minutes or until it’s golden brown and beautiful and bubbly and this is the part where I say brace yourself for a trademark money shot say it with me guys looking good the only
