what do i use as a sauce in a chicken pot pie?

Answer 1

Pot pie sauce

Answer 2

You could try the following sauce
25g/1oz butter
25g/1oz flour
150-200ml/6-7fl oz chicken stock
2-3 tbsp double cream
squeeze of lemon juice
sprig of fresh tarragon

Melt the 25g/1oz butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan, add the flour and cook slowly over a low heat until the mixture is straw-coloured. Pour in the chicken stock, turn up the heat and stir constantly until simmering. Add the cream and reduce until the sauce has a syrupy consistency. Add the lemon juice and tarragon.

or
10 fl oz (275 ml) milk
3/4 oz (20 g) plain flour
3/4 oz (20 g) butter
a pinch of cayenne pepper
1 oz (25 g) mature Cheddar, grated
1/2 oz (10 g) Parmesan, finely grated
a little freshly grated nutmeg
salt and freshly milled black pepper

For the sauce, place the milk, flour, butter and cayenne pepper into a medium saucepan and place it over a gentle heat. Then, using a balloon whisk, begin to whisk while bringing it to a gentle simmer. Whisk continually until you have a smooth, glossy sauce, and simmer very gently for 5 minutes. Then add the cheeses and whisk again, allowing them to melt. Then season with salt, freshly milled black pepper and some freshly grated nutmeg.

I make a roux out of equal parts butter and flour, cooking until light brown, then add chicken broth and milk. Cook for a few minutes (stirring constantly) until it's thickened.

Sorry I can't give you exact measurements, but I don't know how large your pot pie is, or how many you're making. :) If you're making a standard 9" deep dish pie plate, I'd say 3 T. butter, 3 T. flour, 1 c. chicken stock and 3/4 c. milk.

Answer 4

Sweetie,actually there are many ways to go about this.You can either,purchase a can of your favorite condensed soup and add that directly to othe pot pie.Or,you could heat about two tablespoons of butter on the stove til melted.Add two tablespoons of flour and stir.You dont want to take it too far,as you are merely cooking off the "raw flour" taste.Add about 3/4 cup of milk,and 1/2 cup of chicken stock(If you like that,or vegetable stock).It will begin to thicken,dont let it go too far if it gets too thick,and a bit more cream or stock.Add your vegetables,and toss into your pot pie crust.Top with your second crust and bake.Good luck hun,and have a good night.
