I smoked a ton of chicken a couple of weeks ago, pulled it and stuck it in the freezer. I wanted to something different to do with it so I asked in a BBQ Brethren thread for some chicken pot pie recipes. I got a couple and gave it my own little twist.
As I was getting the butter out of the fridge to saute the onions in I spied a little left over fatty. I decided that a couple of diced slices would go nice.
One cup of diced onion, the fatty and 3/4 of a stick of butter cooking away in a pan.
After the onions were cooked I added a little over 1/4 cup of flour and cooked the roux for about 3 minutes. When that was a nice brown color I added 2.5 cups of chicken stock and 1/4 cup of milk. When that had thickened up nice I added 2 cups of smoked chicken, 2 cups of frozen veggies and 1 tablespoon of Todd’s Dirt.
The filling then went into a larger crust filled ramekin.
Added a top crust.
Here the pie is in the oven.
Lots of good stuff in the pie.
And on the way to the mouth…
