THE GOLDEN CRUST / CHICKEN & VEGETABLES
A creamy filling under a flaky lid.
Boil and drain the chicken and vegetables before making the onion sauce. Keeping those jobs separate lets you thicken the broth and milk before the filling meets the pastry.

Ingredients

Instructions

Prepare the oven and filling
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C)
In a saucepan, combine chicken, carrots, peas, and celery. Add water to cover and boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and set aside.

Thicken the onion gravy
In the saucepan over medium heat, cook onions in Cannabutter until soft and translucent. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick. Remove from heat and set aside.

Fill, cover and vent
Place the chicken mixture in bottom pie crust. Pour hot liquid mixture over. Cover with top crust, seal edges, and cut away excess dough. Make several slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Bake and rest
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.

KITCHEN NOTES
Give the filling and pastry their own jobs.
- Drain before filling
- Excess boiling water thins the sauce. Drain the chicken and vegetables, then use the measured broth and milk for the separate sauce.
- Give steam a way out
- Seal the two crusts and cut several slits in the lid. Set the hot dish on a stable surface before serving.
- Check the center as well as the crust
- FoodSafety.gov recommends 165°F (74°C) for poultry and casseroles. Use a thermometer in the filling; pastry color alone cannot establish a safe center.
Measure the batch. Label the portions.
Account for the full ⅓ cup cannabutter before dividing the pie into actual portions. Refrigerate covered, clearly labeled leftovers promptly. If browsing beverage recipes, include every infused component in the same meal.
Keep cannabis food labeled and locked away from children and pets. Effects can take hours; avoid taking more while waiting.
