What to do with the leftovers of chicken pot pie fillings?!
Answers:
1. Add some fresh herbs to brighten it up, perhaps tarragon and spoon over or roll into crepes. If too thick, thin it out with a splash of sherry.
2. Strain out most of the gravy and set aside. Add to the chicken mixture some roasted and peeled jalapenos cut into thin strips, sliced scalions, grated Monterey Jack or mild Cheddar cheese, and tomatillo salsa. Soften up some corn tortillas in hot oil in a small skillet. Add enough tomatillo salsa to the reserved gravy to coat the corn tortillas. Dip each tortilla in the gravy mixture then wrap around the chicken mixture. Arrange in a baking dish and bake in a preheated oven, 30 minutes at 350 deg.
3. Mix in some eggs and cream. Toss with some pasta, Bake in a casserole with a butter cracker crust topping.
Heat it up, serve over brown or white rice, add a dash of tabasco if you like for an extra zing.
Or add to a can of chicken broth, to make cream of chicken and vegetable soup.
Or roll out some think pizza crust dough like the Pillsbury Pizza dough you see in the refrigerated section, cut the dough in four equal squares, drain most of the gravy in the pot pie filling, and add by spool fulls in the center of the squares, fold over, seal well by crimping and sealing the edges, and you have 4 servings of calzones ready to bake in the oven. Or just freeze for another pot pit in the future.
Been there, done that.
As above suggested, freeze it and use it the next time you make a pot pie. Either that or serve it again with mashed potatoes!
Isn't chicken pot pie filling leftovers redundant?
Here's an idea: leave it outside and watch all the animals fight each other over it.
Just freeze it for future pot pies.
I would make chicken and dumplings out of it! My Grandma used to make it all the time growing up...yum!
