Bon Appetit

• Rotisserie chicken: 1, 2-3 lbs

• Onions: 2

• Turnips: 1 lb
• Garlic: 6 cloves
• Thyme: 1 tbsp leaves

• Butter: 3 tbsp unsalted

• Kosher salt: 2.5 tsp
• Black pepper: 1/2 tbsp

• All-purpose flour: 3 tbsp

• Dry white wine: 1 cup

• Heavy cream: 2 cups
• Frozen peas: 10 oz

• Puff pastry: 14 oz

• To make GF, sub flour for GF flour and use GF puff pastry (such as Sweet Loren's or GoodLove Foods)
• The vegetables are very flexible - use carrots, remove the turnips, add celery, whatever

1. Place a rack in center of oven; preheat to 400F
2. Remove and discard skin of 1 rotisserie chicken, then shred meat into 1“ pieces (you should have 4–5 cups meat); set aside
3. Finely dice onion and place in bowl
4. Peel turnips and cut into 3/4 inch pieces. Coarsely chop garlic. Combine turnips, garlic, and thyme into a separate bowl
5. Melt butter in a 12” cast-iron skillet over medium-high. Add onions and cook until browned and soft, about 20 minutes. Add turnips, garlic, and thyme along with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tbsp pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes, until turnip is softening
6. Sprinkle flour over vegetables and cook for about 30 seconds, until flour begins to stick to the bottom of the pan
7. Add wine and continue cooking for a couple of minutes
8. Set aside 1 tbsp of cream and add the rest to the pan along with the peas, the reserved chicken, and 1/2 tbsp salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for another couple of minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from heat and transfer skillet to a baking sheet
9. Roll out puff pastry on a lightly floured surface into a 13“ square (large enough to cover skillet with a bit of overhang). Roll pastry up onto rolling pin. Unfurl pastry from rolling pin, draping it over skillet
10. Trim pastry so that there is a 1” border all around. Fold edge of puff pastry under itself. Crimp edges with a fork (just like you would do when making the top crust of a pie)
11. Using a pastry brush, brush top of pastry with reserved cream. Cut 5–6 small slits in the center so steam can escape. Bake pot pie until crust is light golden brown, 22–24 minutes
12. Reduce oven temperature to 350F and continue to bake until filling is bubbling around the edges and crust is well browned, 25–35 minutes longer. Let sit 10 minutes before serving
