Ingredients
Scale
For the Crust
- 1 disk of refrigerated dough from my Flaky Homemade All Butter Pie Crust recipe or store-bought crust
- 1 whisked egg, for egg wash
For the Filling
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 1 small yellow onion, diced
- 2 small carrots, peeled and sliced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 8 oz baby Bella mushrooms
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup all purpose flour
- 1 1/4 cups chicken, turkey, or veggie broth
- 1 cup half and half
- juice of 1/2 a lemon
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 cups chopped leftover roasted turkey
- 1/2 cup frozen green peas
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Place the disk of pie crust dough onto a well floured surface. Use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough out to 12 inches in diameter. Place the dough on a parchment or silicone lined baking sheet and then place in the fridge to keep cool.
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
- Make the filling: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the butter and once melted, add in the mushrooms, diced onion, celery, sliced carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté the veggies until the onion is translucent and the veggies have started to become tender.
- Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir until well combined.
- Pour in the chicken broth, half and half, lemon juice, thyme, salt, and pepper. Turn the heat to medium-low and let the sauce simmer until it has thickened a bit.
- Next, turn off the heat and stir in the turkey and the frozen peas until well combined.
- Remove the pie crust from the fridge and carefully top the skillet with the dough. Crimp or flute the edges of the crust and then cut four 1/2 inch slits into the top of the crust for air vents and then brush with egg wash.
- Bake the pot pie for 20-25 minutes at 400 degrees until the crust is golden brown. Top with flaky sea salt and fresh thyme.
