Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, diced
• 2 medium Carrots, diced
• 2 medium Celery stalks, diced
• 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 1/3 cup Flour
• 4 cups Chicken stock
• 1/2 cup Heavy cream
• 2 cups Cooked turkey, shredded
• 1 cup Cooked chicken, shredded
• 1 cup Frozen peas
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1/2 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 cups All-purpose flour (for dumpling crust)
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon Salt (for dumpling crust)
• 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves, chopped
• 1/2 teaspoon Fresh rosemary, chopped
• 1/4 cup Butter, cold and cubed (for dumpling crust)
• 3/4 cup Whole milk

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

In a large, oven-safe skillet or pot, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute.

Step 4

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir to coat evenly. Cook for 2-3 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 5

Gradually whisk in the chicken stock, ensuring no lumps form. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring continuously, until it thickens, about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Stir in the heavy cream, cooked turkey, cooked chicken, frozen peas, and fresh parsley. Season with salt and black pepper. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 7

To make the herbed dumpling crust, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add the chopped thyme and rosemary.

Step 8

Cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 9

Gradually stir in the milk until the dough just comes together. Be careful not to overmix.

Step 10

Using a spoon or your hands, drop dollops of the dumpling dough over the top of the pot pie filling, leaving some gaps to allow steam to escape.

Step 11

Transfer the skillet or pot to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the dumpling crust is golden brown and cooked through.

Step 12

Let the pot pie cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
