Hey, y'all, come on in.
0:02
I'm just gettin' ready to make our first recipe.
0:05
I have been busy as a cat covering it up today, y'all.
0:11
You know, it's just one of those days.
0:14
A perfect world would be if I had like two
0:17
or three hours to get in the kitchen and prepare my meal.
0:21
But you know, we don't live in a perfect world, do we?
0:27
I've got Anthony comin' in off the boat.
0:30
I've got Michael comin' in off the boat,
0:31
and they're gonna be starving.
0:33
So I'm doing a quick, but delicious,
0:36
hurry-up chicken pot pie.
0:38
Now, I've got two boneless, skinless, chicken breast
0:42
that I roasted off in the oven.
0:45
And I'm gonna put 'em in a greased casserole dish.
0:48
I've cut 'em up into bite-size pieces.
0:52
And they look good, they're not overcooked.
0:54
They're just perfect.
0:55
Now, I've boiled two eggs.
0:57
And I'm just gonna slice these, whoa!
1:01
About did it, about did it, y'all,
1:04
I trimmed my fingernails while I was cuttin' my eggs.
1:08
All right, so I'm just gonna slice the boiled eggs,
1:10
put them down into my dish.
1:14
And over here on the stove,
1:16
I'm sautein' off some fresh carrots.
1:20
Now, if you're in a real, real, big hurry,
1:22
you can always use a canned carrot
1:28
because those are really nice and quick.
1:30
All you have to do is open the can,
1:32
but these are not gonna take long.
1:35
You can see they're (pan scraping) comin' along nicely.
1:43
I'm gonna give a little salt,
1:46
a little pepper to this dish.
1:48
And now I'm gonna layer on a 1/2 cup
1:52
of English peas or green peas.
1:55
You can use either one.
1:56
You can use the frozen kind, the canned kind,
1:59
or even if you've got leftover fresh ones
2:01
that you've cooked, that'll work great.
2:07
Now, in go our carrots.
2:11
Ooh, aren't those pretty?
2:13
They add a lot of color, a lot of nice vitamins,
2:18
and a lot of nice crunch to our chicken pot pie.
2:22
All right, now, we're gonna need
2:23
a broth for our pie, aren't we?
2:26
Well, since I'm in a hurry,
2:27
I'm gonna use a can of cream of chicken soup,
2:31
and I'm gonna use one can of chicken broth.
2:35
And I'm just gonna mix these together.
2:42
And then I'm gonna pour 'em
2:43
(liquid pouring) over our ingredients.
2:47
You know, I make a fabulous old-timey
2:49
country chicken pot pie with a rolled crust.
2:53
And ahh, it is to die for!
2:56
I used to make it once a week
2:58
when I was running The Bag Lady,
3:00
and everybody looked so forward to that chicken pot pie,
3:03
but I don't have the time today for all of that.
3:07
So I think this is gonna work out nicely.
3:09
Now I'm just gonna pour that cream of chicken mixture
3:13
over that and it looks pretty good, doesn't it?
3:16
All right, now, we're gonna need a crust
3:18
for our chicken pot pie.
3:20
We serve this kind of crust on our shepherd's pie
3:23
at the restaurant and it really works nicely.
3:26
I'm gonna use 1 1/2 cups of a biscuit mix.
3:35
All right, there's one.
3:41
And a 1/2 and one cup of milk.
3:46
Now, we're puttin' more liquid than we would
3:48
if we were makin' biscuits with it
3:51
because we're gonna pour this.
3:52
We want it, we want it thin enough that we can pour it.
3:57
So look how simple that is, that's all ready.
4:01
Now, we're just gonna pour this
4:04
over our chicken pie ingredients.
4:15
Okay, I'm gonna just spread that out.
4:19
And now, the ingredient that's gonna make it so good,
4:24
and so rich, that's one stick of melted butter.
4:38
I use a lot of butter 'cause I can.
4:44
It's wonderful, I can.
4:46
All right, now, I'm gonna put this in the oven at 350
4:49
and I'm gonna bake it off about 30 or 35 minutes.
4:55
Ooh, our chicken pot pie's out of the oven, y'all,
4:57
and it looks real good.
5:00
Think I'm just gonna come in here.
5:03
I'm even too busy to put this on a plate today, y'all.
5:07
I've just snuck some out, look, you can't even tell.
5:10
Look, doesn't it look good?
5:12
You can see where all that butter sunk down in that crust.
5:27
This is really, really good.
5:30
You know, it's not my old-timey chicken pot pie,
5:33
but for a quick meal, this ain't bad, y'all.
5:38
In fact it's pretty dang good.
