Instructions
Creating Turkey Pot Pie is a straightforward process if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
2. Cook the Vegetables: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and garlic, cooking for about 3 minutes until softened.
3. Make the Roux: Stir in the flour, cooking for another minute to create a roux.
4. Add Broth and Milk: Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. This should take about 3-5 minutes.
5. Combine Ingredients: Add the turkey, peas and carrots, diced potatoes, thyme, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix well and remove from heat.
6. Prepare for Baking: Pour the turkey mixture into a pie dish or 9-inch casserole dish.
7. Top the Pie: Cover the filling with the pre-made pie crust. Seal the edges and cut slits in the top for steam to escape.
8. Egg Wash: Beat the egg and brush it over the crust for a golden finish.
9. Bake the Pie: Place the pie in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
10. Cool and Serve: Allow the pie to cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
