ingredients

FILLING
4 carrots, chopped
3 stalks celery, chopped
1 onion, chopped
4 tablespoons crisco canola oil
3 tablespoons fresh thyme, chopped
salt adn pepper
¹⁄₄ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups hot chicken stock
1 cup green peas
1 whole cooked chicken, cubed
CANOLA OIL PASTRY
2 ¹⁄₄ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
³⁄₄ cup canola oil
¹⁄₄ cup water
1 egg, beaten

directions

Heat oven to 425°F.
FILLING: Cook carrots, celery and onion in oil in large skillet over medium-high heat, until tender-crisp. Add thyme, salt and pepper to taste.
Sprinkle with flour and mix so that all vegetables are coated. Cook about 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Carefully stir in hot chicken stock, reduce heat to medium and continue cooking until sauce has thickened to desired consistency.
Add peas and chicken and stir. Pour into 2L casserole dish or 4 individual ovenproof bowls.
CANOLA OIL PASTRY: Meanwhile, combine flour, and salt in large bowl. In separate bowl, combine oil and water. Add to flour, mixing all at once, using a fork to combine.
Dough will look "mealy" . Line rolling surface with waxed or parchment paper.
Drop dough onto prepared surface and knead until dough comes together. Dough will be sticky and difficult to work with. Place another piece of waxed or parchment paper on top of dough and roll with rolling pin to 1/4" thickness.
Brush beaten egg around edges of casserole dish. Carefully place pastry on top, pushing down on edges so they stick to casserole. Trim pastry and save for another use.
Cut slits in top for steam to escape and brush with remaining beaten egg.
Bake in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, until pastry is golden brown. Serve immediately. Filling will be very hot!

I am a 56 year old Gramma that, for the first time in my life, has purchase myself a computer, and I didn't know what i was missing!! I have a husband tha I adore, and 4 grandchildren that of course surpass all others - lol - I am disabled, and am an at home person, so I have a lot of time on my hands, to play with my recipes, and I am enjoying every bit of it - My husband will eat anything that I cook, so I have carte blanche as far as that goes, so I have a great time trying out new recipes. Paula Deen has published some of my favorite cookbooks, her recipes are easy and quick to do. Her sweets are fantastics, especially her pound cakes, Yummm I guess the dish that I am famous for is my Christmas ham - my family all comes home for Christmas, and if i don't have my ham they are dissapointed, and my grandson wants the pistachio squares!!! so I guess that is the dishes that I'm famous for.
