This pie can be made with either turkey or chicken. It combines a tangy crispy crust with tender meat and veggies and a flavorful sauce. This is my Mom's recipe, and she has been making it for 35 years. Ingredients:
2 1/2-3 lbs chicken, cooked and removed from bone or 3 -4 cups cooked chicken or 3 -4 cups cooked turkey, leftovers |
2 cups chicken broth or 2 cups turkey broth |
1 (10 1/2 ounce) can cream of celery soup |
1 1/2 cups of sliced frozen carrots |
1 1/2 cups frozen sweet peas |
1/2 cup lightly-salted butter |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1 cup self-rising flour |
1 cup buttermilk (buttermilk recommended) or 1 cup whole milk (buttermilk recommended) |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Preheat your oven to 425 degrees F.
2. For the filling: Cook the chicken and remove the meat from bones, or measure out the precooked chicken or turkey.
3. Place the meat, the carrots and the peas in a buttered 9-inch by 13-inch pan.
4. Mix the broth with the soup and bring to a boil.
5. Pour the hot liquid over the meat.
6. For the crust: Mix all ingredients until smooth, pour over the chicken and spread until the crust is about 1 inch from the sides of the pan.
7. Bake the pie in the oven for 35-45 minutes, until crust is nicely browned.
