0:00
- I do too, they get in the bottom of a mayonnaise jar good.
0:03
We're talking about, y'all, these little small spatulas
0:07
and we were down at the restaurant yesterday,
0:11
at the Lady and Sons, and Eddie said,
0:15
"ladies, Paula gave all her little half spatulas away
0:21
to some girls that were at the house the other day
0:22
and said they liked them
0:23
so she just took 'em out of her door and said, okay, here."
0:26
Well, the store's also out of 'em too and Eddie said,
0:31
"you got one more and it's going home with me
0:35
when she goes looking for a half spatula."
0:37
So I just love that size.
0:39
But anyway, speaking of the restaurant,
0:42
yesterday or day before yesterday,
0:47
I met so many wonderful people
0:49
and one young man came up to me and he said,
0:53
"I miss that chicken pot pie so much"
0:58
and our chicken pot pie is delicious,
1:02
the one that we served at the restaurant
1:04
but when COVID came, we restructured our menu
1:10
so we have chicken and dumplings on the menu
1:14
but not the chicken pot pie
1:17
and we did that beautiful lattice puff pastry,
1:21
and so chicken pot pie is so many people's just favorite
1:28
unpretentious, just comfort home food.
1:35
So this recipe and I've got so many recipes
1:37
for so many different chicken pot pies
1:39
so you just use the way that you wanna go.
1:42
Now, this one is super, super, super simple
1:48
Now, I'm gonna start with a can of cream of chicken soup
1:51
and I'm just pouring it right in the dish
1:54
that we're gonna cook this in.
2:07
Okay, so that's pretty good.
2:09
All right, now I'm gonna add a cup of chicken stock
2:15
and I'm just gonna blend this up real good
2:20
till it's kinda smooth
2:24
and you'll kind of wanna do this in small amounts
2:28
so you won't lose control over it.
2:41
- [Eddie] Which do you like best,
2:42
the pie crust top or the puff pastry?
2:46
- You know, I just love the presentation, Eddie,
2:50
of that lattice top on that chicken pot pie
2:54
but I think maybe my favorite chicken pot pie
3:00
is when I roll out my dough
3:05
and I lattice it with my homemade dough,
3:12
cut it into strips and oh my gosh, it's good
3:15
but now that one is a lot of work.
3:20
- [Eddie] I like the puff pastry
3:22
but I almost feel like I'm getting cheated a little bit.
3:25
When you bite into it,
3:27
I like the weightiness of a pie dough.
3:30
- Uh huh, yeah, yeah.
3:33
All right, I'm gonna add some salt and some pepper to that.
3:47
This is a great dish if you have like leftover chicken.
3:52
All right, now we're just gonna use a frozen vegetable
3:56
of mixed vegetables and you can put as much as you want
4:01
or as little as you want.
4:02
If you can get your children to eat some vegetables,
4:05
I guess that's a good thing.
4:08
I know if my grands see anything green,
4:11
they run the other way.
4:14
All right, so the next thing we're gonna do
4:17
is put our chicken over that,
4:22
our beautiful, beautiful chicken.
4:23
This one's gonna be real meaty, Eddie.
4:26
Is that what you want?
4:27
Do you feel like it needs more meat?
4:30
You feel like you're not getting enough meat
4:32
with the puff pastry?
4:38
We're almost home with this pie, y'all.
4:41
All right, I'm gonna come over here
4:43
and I'm gonna use my biscuit mix
4:49
and I'm gonna add a cup of milk to that.
4:57
This is a great hurry up meal, y'all.
5:02
You can pull any leftover chicken out of your refrigerator
5:06
or you can go by the grocery store
5:08
and pick up a roaster that's already cooked
5:14
but you really feel like your children and your husband,
5:17
your wife are all getting
5:23
a meal that's had some effort put in it
5:27
without a whole bunch of effort.
5:37
And I'm just gonna pour this on top of our good stuff.
5:52
Holy camoly, this is gonna be so good and so easy.
5:57
How long, look at that hand
6:00
coming in there to get that dirty dish.
6:09
Now for the last piece of goodness,
6:14
I'm gonna drizzle our butter over the top of our crust.
6:32
If that ain't gonna be delicious,
6:34
grits ain't groceries, y'all.
6:38
It's time for supper.
6:40
350, 25 minutes maybe.
6:44
- [Theresa] Think it says a good bit longer on the recipe.
6:46
- I can't remember but it's not gonna take long
6:49
'cause everything's really cooked in it
6:51
except for the topping.
6:55
You know, how easy was that chicken pot pie?
7:00
And I do love just plain old honest dishes that no tricks.
7:14
- [Eddie] That looks so good.
7:15
- Doesn't that look so good?
7:19
And you know what, Eddie?
7:20
I can't taste it right now
7:21
'cause it would pull the skin off my tongue
7:24
if I've got skin on it.
7:25
We've got skin on our tongue, don't we?
7:29
And I don't wanna take it off.
7:30
So we're gonna let this cool and then I'm gonna come back
7:35
and share the taste of it with y'all.
7:39
Y'all, our pot pie's finally cooled off
7:42
enough for me to give it a taste
7:46
and I don't think I'm gonna be able to hide the fact
7:49
that I went in this early.
7:52
- [Theresa] We're not saving this for anybody, are we?
8:02
and like I said, the ease of this dish is incredible.
8:15
I could eat that whole biscuit topping off of it, y'all.
8:33
I'm only gonna say this thing about it.
8:40
I put too much salt in it at some point
8:44
so be careful of your salt
8:50
'cause it is salty and ever so good.
9:00
Love and Best Dishes, y'all.
9:02
This is a great Sunday night supper.
9:05
Spend the day with your family
9:06
and then come in and take five minutes
9:07
and throw this together
9:09
and they'll think you're Betty Crocker.
9:15
