Recipe Extravaganza

Shelly is hosting the 2nd annual recipe extravaganza. She did this last year and I was a bum and only got the recipes, but didn't participate. I thought this year it would be fun to give out some of my favorites. If you want to join go to her link and comment that you want to be part of it and she will add you to her list. There is also a list there that has everyones blogs so we can all check out the recipes. Fun!
I thought I would start out with my Chicken Pot Pie. Enjoy!


Chicken Pot Pie

1 pound chicken breast, cubed
3 chicken boullon cubes
1 cup cubed carrots
2 cups cubed potatoes
1 cup frozen corn
1 stick of butter
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup flour
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp celery seed
2 3/4 cups chicken broth ***See note
3/4 cups milk
deep 9 inch pie pan
two 9 inch pie crusts

Directions:
Heat oven to 415. Put chicken in saucepan, covered with water (about 4 cups), add bouillon cubes and cook until chicken is done. ***Save the water because you use this as the chicken broth. While chicken is cooking cover vegetables with water in saucepan and cook until tender. While both of those are cooking, spray your pie pan with Pam and cook crust for about 10-12 minutes. When vegetables are done, drain and pour in crust. Melt butter and add onion, cook until tender. Add flour and whisk constantly to make a paste. Add pepper and celerty seed. Slowly add chicken broth and milk. Mix until thick and pour over vegetables in pie pan. Add your top crust. Make your edge pretty. Whisk an egg and brush over top. Cut pretty slits in crust and cook for 25-30 minutes. You need a pretty deep 9 inch pie pan.
