Equipment

Ingredients

  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • ½ medium onion, peeled and diced
  • cup all-purpose flour
  • ½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 3 sprigs fresh thyme remove leaves from stem and discard stem
  • 1 teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup chicken or turkey broth Note 1
  • cup half and half
  • 20 ounce bag, mixed veggies thawed Note 2
  • 2 cups cooked turkey, shredded Note 3
  • 2 9 inch pie crust, homemade or store-bought Note 4
  • 1 large egg, beaten

Instructions

Make the filling

  • Preheat your oven to 400°F
  • Warm your skillet over medium-high. Once it is warm, add butter to melt. Stir in onions, cook for about five minutes to soften the onions. Once they become translucent, stir in flour.
  • Mix in poultry seasoning, thyme, salt, and pepper. Continue to stir until everything is incorporated with the flour. The mixture will thicken slightly.
  • Alternate pouring in small amounts of half-and-half and chicken broth into the onion mixture. Continue to do this until all the broth and half-and-half have been added.
  • Mix in the shredded turkey to combine ingredients.
  • Place one pie crust on the bottom of your pie plate. Pour in your turkey pot pie mixture. With the back of a spoon smooth out the pot pie mixture so that it is even in the pie dish.
  • Place the other pie crust on top and pinch together the sides of your pot pie.
  • Using a sharp knife cut lines in the top of your pie crust to vent.
  • In a small bowl, beat the egg with a whisk to make an egg wash. Brush egg mixture over the top and sides of the crust to create a seal.
  • Place your pie in the oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the crust is lightly brown. The filling will begin to bubble.
  • Allow your pie to cool for about 15 minutes before cutting into it.
  • Serve and enjoy!
