Time 50m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 25

2 tablespoons (28 grams) unsalted butter
2 tablespoons (30 grams) olive oil
1 red bell pepper, seeded and finely chopped
1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
1 large carrot, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups (290 grams) fresh English peas
1 cup (165 grams) fresh corn kernels, from about 2 cobs
1 teaspoon (1 gram) dried thyme
1/4 cup (30 grams) all-purpose flour
2 cups (480 milliliters) chicken broth
1/2 cup (120 milliliters) heavy cream
2 cups roast turkey meat picked off bone and broken into bite-size pieces
Salt and pepper, to taste
3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour, plus for dusting the work surface
1 teaspoon (6 grams) salt
1 tablespoon (11 grams) sugar
1 tablespoon (15 grams) baking powder
1/2 cup (100 grams) vegetable shortening, frozen, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup (100 grams) unsalted butter, chilled, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 cup (240 milliliters) low-fat buttermilk
1 large egg
2 teaspoons fresh thyme, minced
Egg wash (1 egg whisked with 2 tablespoons water)
Coarse sea salt, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • To make the filling: In a large (14-inch) ovenproof skillet, melt the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, onion, carrot, and garlic and saute until soft.
  • Stir in the peas, corn and thyme. Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and then add the chicken broth and cream. Stir to distribute the flour and the liquids. Simmer until the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes. Stir in the turkey and add salt and pepper to taste. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
  • To make the biscuit top crust: In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, salt, sugar, and baking powder. Whisk for thirty seconds to combine and evenly distribute the leavening. Add the shortening and butter and toss to coat the fat a bit with the flour. Using your fingertips, gently work the fats into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse cornmeal with some pea-size chunks of fat.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the buttermilk and egg, and add this to the flour mixture. Stir together with a wooden spoon. Then, gently work through the mixture with your hands to separate any wet patches and bring the dough together.
  • Turn the dough out onto a floured work surface, sprinkle with the minced thyme and knead gently until it just holds together. Pat it into a rough 1/2-inch-tall disk and cut it into 7 biscuits using a 3-inch round biscuit cutter. (Bake off the scraps and use for croutons in the Broccoli Salad recipe.)
  • To assemble: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Top the filling in the skillet with the biscuit rounds. Brush the tops with egg wash and sprinkle them with sea salt.
  • Bake the potpie for 25 to 30 minutes, until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown.

2 celery ribs, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large parsnip (peeled), cored and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 teaspoon chopped thyme
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 pound mushrooms, trimmed and quartered
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups roast turkey meat, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

1/4 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano
3/4 stick cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 1/4 cups well-shaken buttermilk

Steps:

  • Make stock:

Add mushrooms and cook, uncovered, stirring, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Sprinkle with flour and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in stock (3 1/2 cups), scraping up any brown bits, and bring to a boil, stirring, then simmer until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in turkey, peas, and salt and pepper to taste. Reheat over low heat just before topping with biscuit crust.
  • Make biscuit crust and bake pie:
  • Preheat oven to 400°F with rack in middle.
  • Sift together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and pepper into a medium bowl. Add cheeses and toss to coat. Blend in butter with a pastry blender or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add buttermilk and stir just until a dough forms. Drop biscuit dough onto filling in 8 large mounds, leaving spaces between biscuits.
  • Bake until biscuits are puffed and golden brown and filling is bubbling, 35 to 40 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes before serving.

  • · You can substitute another turkey stock or reduced-sodium chicken broth for the stock in this recipe. You can also make stock using leftover cooked chicken in place of turkey.
