Katie, Maxx (my son), and I all thought it tasted pretty awesome:
(Original recipe from My Recipes)
Ingredients
- 2 slices smoked bacon, chopped
- 3 cubed russet potato (about 8 ounces)
- 2 chopped carrots
- 3 chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 3 1/2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 sliced leek
- kosher salt, to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 (14.1-ounce) package refrigerated pie dough
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 large egg
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 450°.
2. Cook bacon in a large fry pan over medium heat until almost crisp, stirring frequently. Increase heat to medium-high. Add potato and carrot to pan; saute 3 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add chicken; sauté 3 minutes or until lightly browned, stirring occasionally. Stir in flour and next 3 ingredients (through pepper); sauté 1 minute, stirring frequently.
3. Slowly add broth to pan, stirring constantly; bring to a boil. Cook 2 minutes or until slightly thick, stirring occasionally. Spoon mixture into a 1 1/2-quart glass or ceramic baking dish. Top with dough, folding under and pressing down on edges to seal.
4. Combine milk and egg white; brush mixture over top of dough. Cut small slits in dough to vent. Bake at 450° for 30 minutes or until crust is golden. Be sure to bake on with a cookie sheet under your pie pan, to avoid loose dough. Let stand 10 minutes.
When I make this next time I will make my own dough (also I'll post that recipe at a later date), the store brought stuff is just not thick enough and too soft. Also I think some mushrooms would go nicely in this meal. We had a small side salad which was a great addition.
I had never cooked with leeks before, while searching how to properly slice a leek I learned they are extremely dirty since they grow in sand. Here's a great video to discribe how to clean and slice leeks:
