Ingredients:
I cup flour
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 cup shortening
(ok I was kinda lazy and used filo as the topping for the pies, you can also use pre-made pie mix to save time)
3 tbsp plus 1 tsp ice water
2 (10 1/2 oz) cans low sodium chicken broth ( I used water)
2 cups diced unpeeled round red potato ( you can subsitute sweet potato if you like)
1 cup thinly sliced carrot
1/2 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup frozen English peas ( I used a bag of mixed organic veggies)
1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup skim (1%) milk
1/4 to 1/2 tsp seasonings (poultry : sage, red pepper, cayenne pepper, black pepper, Mrs Dash, marjoram, and chili pepper)
2-3 cups cooked chicken breast
butter flavored cooking spray. ( I used olive oil)
Make the pastry topping:
- Combine 1 cup flour, and 1/4 tsp salt in a bowl; cut in shortening with a knife, until mixture resembles course meal. Sprinkle ice water, 1 tbsp at a time, over surface, toss with a fork until dry ingredients are moistened.
- Gently press into a 4 inch circle on heavy duty plastic wrap.
- Cover with wrap, chill 30 mins.
Since I used the filo, i put it in the oven and allow it to start cooking, then pulled it out before it got too crisp.
Filling:
- In a deep dish, bring to broth (water) to boil. Add potato, cover and cook 5 mins; add carrots and onions cover and allow to cook 3 mins. Add in peas (the mixed veggies) cover and cook an additional 2 minutes or until tender.
- Add in flour, seasoning, milk in a separate bowl then add it to the veggie mix slowly allowing it to start getting thickening, mix in well and allow it cook out, stirring constantly.
- remove from heat stir in cooked chicken
- Spoon into dishes, cover with pastry shell
- Slit small cuts into the top to vent them
- Spray with oil or cooking spray
- Place in oven at 350 for 55 mins or until nice and crisp.
Let stand for 10 mins.
Serves 8
