Making a pot pie is a great way to use up any leftover turkey you still have from Thanksgiving. Creamy gravy with chicken and vegetables topped with fresh biscuits is pure comfort in one pot! Turkey does taste like chicken to me but turkey can be so much more flavorful and juicier than chicken depending on what method you used to cook your turkey. Oven-proof skillets are great for this method of cooking one-skillet meals and if you don’t have one in your kitchen you should definitely get one. Cast Iron Skillets are one example of these. Just be careful when grabbing the hot handle out of the oven. Use an oven mitt. When the time came to take this skillet out of the oven I used an oven mitt and transferred over to a place on my countertop that would be safe enough for the pan. When I was about to take the picture I completely forgot about that and accidentally touched the skillet. Ouch! It does hurt so like I said please don’t do what I did by mistake and use an oven mitt!
Ingredients for Skillet Pot Pie
Chicken - Cut into smaller sizes of bites or pieces Butter, Flour, and Chicken stock - Helps to form the gravy. As the chicken stock simmers in the pot the gravy will get thicker. The chicken stock will also help deglaze the pan. Always use unsalted chicken stock or reduced sodium chicken stock to control the amount of salt that goes into the recipe. Salt and Pepper - to taste Mixed Vegetables - I just used a bag of frozen mixed vegetables but feel free to use whatever vegetable you like here such as onion or even potatoes Parmesan Cheese - Helps to flavor the gravy Biscuits - either homemade or store-bought from a can
