Answer 2

Perfect for Sunday dinner....

Quick & Easy Chicken Pot Pie

2 cups of water

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (or more if you like a lot of veggies)

4 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules

4 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon cornstarch

2 cups milk

2 cups cooked turkey or chicken broken into bite size pieces (or more if you like a lot of meat in your pot pie)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon pepper

2 refrigerated pie crusts



In a saucepan, bring water, vegetables, and bouillon to a boil. reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 3-5 minutes or until vegetables are tender. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and milk until smooth; add to the vegetable mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Add the turkey or chicken, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper. Pour into a greased 9" x 13" baking dish.

Unroll the pie crust and shape around the dish. Pierce a fork into the top to get some holes in it for air while it is baking. As you can see by my photo, the pie crust doesn't have to look perfect. Bake at 375 degrees for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.

"mmmmmmm" It's delicious and when baking it smells SO good!

Answer 3

I love Chicken Marsala, here's my version.

Grill 4 chicken breasts and julienne them.

Cook 8 oz fettuccini al dente.

Make the sauce.

MARSALA CREAM SAUCE

1 tb Unsalted butter
1 c Dry marsala wine
1 c Heavy cream
2 tb Unsalted butter -- cubed
Melt the butter add wine and reduce to about 1/2 of liquid remains. Add cream and simmer until reduced by 1/3.

Add sliced mushrooms and artichoke hearts to the sauce. Arrange pasta on large plate spoon sauce over the pasta and lay out the julienned chicken on top.
Have a nice glass of Merlot with this dish uit compliments it well.
