good recipe for chicken pot pie, jan: i got to explain big chicken. i havea son who for some reason decided that turkey was the worst thing ever, and he would noteat it. and so another kid just started calling it big chicken. so for years we had no turkeyat our house, but we had a lot of big chicken. walter: but you had a lot of big chicken.alright.
jan: all right so i have olive oil and a littlebit of butter and just some onion and some red pepper and carrot. so all i've done issautã©ed those. walter: you know you've made it smell verygood in here. jan: it does smell good. it really does. walter: and that's a little flour. jan: a little flour. we're going to make amess here because. . . walter: no, no, no. jan: no, no? walter: you're going to make a rudimentaryrue.
jan: oh, very nice, walter. walter: i mean, am i good or what? jan: that was amazing. walter: dumb. jan: alright. chicken broth. walter: yes. jan: and if you're making big chicken, goahead and take the carcass, simmer it down, and then you've got the broth right there. walter: do you make carcass soup?
jan: i do make carcass soup. walter: well, when i make carcass soup righthere, some of these folks that we have the pleasure of working with beg me to changethe name of it. jan: well, i guess you could get real creativewith what kind of carcass. walter: nope, nope. we didn't do that. okay. jan: alright. so you would bring this to aboil, right? walter: right, that will come up to a boil. jan: and then at home you would let it cometo a simmer first. walter: right.
jan: we're going to sprinkle in our parsley,and right here i have my big chicken. walter: big chicken. jan: this is my big chicken, and so that'sgoing to get stirred in here. jan: now i've used puff pastry because thatstuff is just fabulous. i think you could put just about anything in puff pastry andmake it taste really good. walter: and look really good. jan: it does; it looks so impressive, doesn'tit? walter: right and all you have to do is goto the freezer case at food city and buy it. jan: i know. you take 20 minutes. it sitson the counter top and boom. now if you want
to, you can put in a pie plate, but the puffpastry is already oblong. so it takes about three seconds to get it ready to go in thebottom of the casserole dish. jan: so we're going to take all of this, andwe're going to throw it in our casserole. walter: let's move along because we're goingto have folks moving in on us. jan: that's right. we have guests. walter: and so that's cooked. it goes in there. jan: goes in here, and we top it with thesecond one. walter: that you have wrapped around the rollingpin over here. jan: brush it with a little egg white andyou're done. throw that in the oven for 350
degrees. walter: easy, easy thing and you see i feelvery good about this because chicken pot pie made with big or little chicken was one ofmy mother's favorite things in the world. jan: yep. walter: now you need to get this recipe becauseit's a lot simpler than you think it is. jan: oh, it takes just moments. walter: so write to chefs recipe, 6450 papermilldrive, knoxville, tennessee, 37919. send me a self-addressed, stamped envelope or go tolocal8now.com it'll be posted and waiting for you.
