❓ What Is Ina Garten Chicken Pot Pie Recipe?

Ina Garten Chicken Pot Pie recipe is a classic dish consisting of a savory filling of chicken, vegetables and gravy encased in a flaky pie crust.

🍗 Ingredients:

• 2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 onion, chopped
• 2 carrots, chopped
• 2 celery stalks, chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 cup frozen peas
• 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
• 5-6 tablespoons ice water

🥧 Instructions:

1. In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Cut in butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
2. Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork until the dough just comes together. Divide dough in half, wrap each half in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
3. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chicken breasts and cook until browned on all sides. Remove chicken from pot and set aside.
4. Add onion, carrots, and celery to the pot and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and thyme and cook for 1 minute more.
5. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth.
6. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until slightly thickened. Shred cooked chicken using two forks.
7. Return chicken to the pot with vegetables and broth. Stir in heavy cream and peas. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
8. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Roll out one disc of dough on a lightly floured surface to a 12-inch circle. Transfer to a 9-inch pie plate. Pour filling into the crust.
9. Roll out the second disc of dough and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges. Cut a few slits in the top crust to vent steam.
10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let the pie cool on a wire rack for at least 30 minutes before serving.

📍 Recipe Tips

• Make the crust ahead: Make the pie crust the day before and chill it overnight for easier handling.
• Don’t overcook the chicken: Cook the chicken just until cooked through to avoid drying it out.
• Use high-quality broth: Using a good quality chicken broth will enhance the flavor of the pie.
• Make it your own: Add your favorite vegetables to the filling, such as peas, corn, or mushrooms.
• Use a pie crust shield: To prevent the edges of the crust from over-browning, use a pie crust shield or cover them with foil during baking.
