A real pot pie has a bottom crust. Lay the bottom crust in the pie plate, then blind bake it. When the crust has cooled, proceed with the recipe. Easy. 🤗
Dough recipe is absolutely on point. I learned this from my mother, who learned it from her grandmother, etc... This is how you make pie crust. Hands down. BEST!
I like a crust on the bottom too. Crust is my favorite part. Maybe use a store bought puff pastry on the bottom, par bake it and continue with the rest as you did. Your crust looks amazing! 👍🏼👍🏼
There is a paste bullion called Better Than Bullion. I am IN LOVE with that stuff. DONT eat it straight from the jar , the salt will kick ya hard. But it makes THE BEST gravies and sauces! I am horrible at gravies with flour , so i use corn starch and this bullion, mix it with water first to dissolve it .
Try adding just a bit of chicken Better Than Bouillon to canned chicken noodle soup and it makes it taste homemade. Simple way to really upgrade can soup.
Awesome recipe! For those following along at home, here are some notes I had: 1. Following the filling recipe in the description, we were able to make 4 pies (only wanted 2...). Stretching the dough on top a little thinner made it work tho. We doubled the filling because it looked like that part was for one pie, but idk ymmv 2. Put a pan under your pie for baking (or don't overfill it). Mine leaked and now I will be cleaning the oven. 3. Tasted fine without Marmite, added some extra better-than-bouillon but idk how marmite tastes, but it's hard to find here. 4. Worcestershire sauce goes hard with this (especially if you go too light on the seasoning) 5. Don't forget the pastry dough needs salt! The pastry dough turned out amazing. Definitely worth making it and following the recipe.
As a Brit, I believe a pie should have a pastry bottom, sides and top. However, I must say your pastry looks wonderful, just wish there was more on it.
Makes you even more a pro to show a little mistake and explain what happened. That really helps people that struggle bc, being real, these things happen and it's ok. This looks amazing!
I've become addicted to savory pies and pasties. I have lots of dietary restrictions, and find that I can make a real treat for myself that is still legal by making simple adjustments to recipes. I have "The Pie Room", which is excellent. Erin Jeanne McDowell's "Savory Baking" is also excellent. Have not made a chicken pot pie yet (lots of steak and mushroom pies and hand pies, though). Will try this soon. Love your channel.
DUUUDE...Chicken pot pie is my absolute favorite!!!👍👍👍 Don't you dare worry about any of the crust and pastry Is falling apart or being uneven, That is the beauty part about homemade👌 I am definitely keeping this recipe!❤
Today is the day. I watched this video around 20x during the last 2 weeks. I cook a lot but never dough. Watching the dough portion over and over again. The flour and butter mixture is now been made and sitting in the fridge for 10 more minutes before I try to add the egg and water mixture. Wish me luck!
Thankyou you are the only channel that educates you how to make pastry! I know buying store bought is a great shortcut for busy people - but it’s really handy to learn the technique
Freeze your butter. Then use a cheese grater to make the chucks of butter. This keeps them very cold and they can be mixed quickly through the flour. Ta Da!
My go to in the winter is make my best pot of chicken soup and have it that night. And the next night make chicken pot pie with the left over soup. Just thicken it and add peas and what ever I have laying around. And yes, I'm going have to try your secret ingredients and the fresh herb next time. And I agree with making pie crust from scratch. It's easy and makes all the difference in the world. I just use the crust recipe in the jacket of the Good Housekeeping Cookbook. Although I'm going to also try your crust. I looks killer. Cheers
I was fortunate enough to be in the kitchen with my great-grandmother and my grandmother and the only thing that they did different on this recipe, including the fancy topping was they had a base in the dish of dough and it was maybe a little thicker dish but it did have the top but you poured the ingredients right in the dish without actually having a pie bottom. That made an incredible difference.
I made a homemade turkey pot pie with leftover smoked turkey and I can say without a doubt it is THE best way to use up leftover smoked turkey there is.
Alton Brown recommends using the bench scraper to fold it in 1/3s once you press the dough mss into. Pile and press it it ft. Usually about 5 fold should bring it together
Wow! A chef whom openly admits his errors when he could have edited 12:50 the mistake out in post production! Damn dude. Serious respect✌🏻🤙🏻 Always been a fan👍🏻👏🏻
No other choice but to try making this,I feel like this flaky pie dought recipe is a keeper for so many other dishes! Thank you so much man keep it up!❤
LOVE Marmite toast with tons of butter- definitely an acquired taste for the Americans! The British influence where I grew up helps. This looks super yummm- thank you! 🤤
Quite often the "pungent pea-ness" will add a wonderful note of blue vein cheese which I think is a great addition to any moist bird. The crust overhang issue... pfft, purely looks and didn't seem to affect the short crust pastry flavour,, however thank you for showing, it just boosts your credibility. Great recipe, video and presentation, thank you 🤩
In the Netherlands we call this dough 'kort boter deeg' normally its used for cookies and is not savoury at all, the method you use is spot on btw. Certainly gonna try this some time in the holidays ❤
Taste the Pea-ness! Back in my restaurant days, we'd make these in little 6 inch ramekins for individual servings, works great for home as well, Can customize the filling for each little pie if you have picky eaters in the house.
Your videos hit a sweet spot with real meals using fresh ingredients. I'm a caretaker for several family member with little time but a desire to serve healthy meals. You show how to divide recipes into prep and cook, prep rosemary salt and section turkey days ahead at night, combine as needed. BTW, might be heresy, I microwave chopped onion and carrots before browning to save time and attention by softening them, then fry for Maillard reaction.
I just made a pot pie the other day. Made similarly, only I used store bought dough. It was so far the best pie I've ever done. I'm glad I took notes while I made it so I can recreate it again
Love the wine, I also add wine to my chicken pot pie. A few dashes of poultry seasoning, I love that stuff. I put it in my dumplings as well. Not too much, it's intense.
My pot pie is never dry. Use my granny's flake proof ingredient.. white vinegar. My filling last yr was the best. Used black silky chicken in the multiple cooker to obtain the tastiest broth 😋.. I have to make a double crust... This recipe will top my pot-pie this yr 2024!
I like to put a stick of butter in the freezer ice tray for about 20 minutes and then grate it into the flour. Less hand mixing and the dough stays nice and cold.
The pie looks delicious. I'm serving individual 🐔 pot pies tonight. I made my own pastry, but i am looking forward to trying your pastry recipe. Thanks for sharing. ❤
If your chicken is raw, another idea is to boil in the stock the parts of the chicken you're using along with the bones. It fortifies the stock while making the chicken very tender. You'll probably have a lot of leftover stock in the end but I don't see that as a problem
Man, I *love* making chicken (and mushroom) pie and it's been well over a year since I last made one, I'm just realizing. Next weekend, I'll be making one again!
Ya know, I used to think Jamie Oliver was down to earth more than most guys, and he is, but Sonny is such a dude!! That can cook!! LoL 😂 Way to go on another great video!! 👍👍
My wife made this for dinner tonight. I can't thank you enough. It's delicious and the best crust I've ever had. My son asked that she make it once a month. The only problem is, there's now a huge dent in our refrigerator.
I'm obsessed with chicken pot pie. The crust recipe is great and the filling looks amazing. I will make this as a soup since I need to be low-carb which sucks. Thank you so much! P.S I hate celery too.
One of my favorite thigs about Marie Callendars pot pies is having the crust above and BELOW. What modifications would need to be made to add the crust on the bottom as well?
I'm of the ilk that it is not a chicken pot pie without a bottom crust, which, IMO, is the best part since it soaks up all the flavor of the filling and when parbaked, remains just flaky enough. So, I'm making your killer chicken pot pie, but with a bottom crust! :)
A pot pie doesn’t have pastry on the bottom, that is just a pie, and a tart has pastry on the bottom with filling but no top. So if you call a pie with a top and bottom a pot pie, could you please tell me what do you call a pie with just pastry on the top.??
I love how he kept the “imperfections” in the video. It makes it way more realistic in my opinion and lets me think I can actually attempt this
When Sonny said "pungent pea-ness" we all knew in those few seconds that there was a 0% chance Marcus was letting that slide. 😅
I died laughing
Seriously… who’d let that one get away?? 🤣🤣🤣
@@jeremycharbonneau8031as did I
You'd think he'd avoid calling the dough "rock hard" post "pungent pea-ness"😂
it was a genuine mistake....lol

At home, we cook for the flavor way more than the presentation. I love your imperfect pie crust. The entire chicken pot pie looks delicious.

Agree.
I agree it seemed a little...irreverent😂 but still looks and sounds delish
I’m an American and I agree.
I'm Asian and I concur.
I'm a firm believer that a pie should have a pastry bottom as well. In Britain pies tend to only have a pastry top.
Best cooking channel on TH-cam, never change my dudes!
Marshall Fields’ Walnut Room-for decades-served individual chicken pot pies topped with a dome of puff pastry. Nothing can ever compete!
Makes you even more a pro to show a little mistake and explain what happened. That really helps people that struggle bc, being real, these things happen and it's ok. This looks amazing!

Gonna try this today. Your recipes have never let us down and is pretty much holding my family together 😂
After watching Glen and Friends YT channel use marmite in his beef dishes, I tried it and it makes the depth of flavour in a dish fantastic.

When I used to make lots of biscuits, I kept a big container of flour in the freezer, butter too and I'd run it through a grater.
Very nice to keep the mistakes in. We all get to learn from it-thank you!
One change I would make is to add diced celery to the roux making. It’s the holy trinity of cooking!

Tuck and fold the edges of dough under not over. It props the ridge up for better crimping and looks sharp.
My equal favorite last meal along with beef welli... #😍... thanks for educating the people... 😊
