One Skillet Chicken Pot Pie

One-Skillet Chicken Pot Pie with Spicy Beer Mustard and Thyme

Best in Flavor and Best in Pleasure 

One-Skillet Chicken Pot Pie

One-Skillet Chicken Pot Pie with Spicy Beer Mustard and Thyme

When I review a recipe I score for 5 attributes:  

#1 – Phenomenal flavor   
#2 – Eye appeal  
#3 – Easy cooking and clean-up  
#4 – Six or fewer ingredients   
#5 – Nutritional aspects; good-for-health  

  1. I give the Chicken Pot Pie in Puff Pastry a star for flavor. This recipe tastes amazing because every one of the 16 ingredients blend to produce a creamy, savory flavor, and the puff pastry crust adds a crunch to every bite. 

  2. I give the recipe a star for eye appeal – toasty brown crust and creamy sauce with bright orange carrots and green peas peeking through the topping.

  3. I award the recipe a star for easy cooking and clean-up (one skillet).

  4. NO star for 6 or fewer ingredients -  In fact over 12 ingredients are needed to make the pot pie. I will say that each ingredient is common, and probably all but the chicken and puff pastry are on-hold in your refrigerator or on a pantry shelf now.

  5. I posted a star for  benefits towards health and nutrition because the One-Skillet Chicken Pot Pie with Thyme includes vegetables, chicken, and a toasty carbohydrate in the puff pastry crust, and  is low in fat and salt.  

I think One-Skillet Chicken Pot Pie with 4 out of 5 stars deserves  a place of honor on your table.      

Spicy Beer Mustard lifts the flavor from “good” to  “May I have a second helping?” delicious and adds to the nutritional value of the dish.  

Now Chef’s, …Set oven to 400 Degrees, and take out your 10-inch black-iron or heavy bottom steel skillet and begin cooking!

Equipment

  • 1 10" oven proof skillet black iron skillet works well with this recipe

What You'll Need:

  • 1 Tb water
  • 1 sheet frozen puff pastry
  • 6 Tb unsalted butter
  • 2 cups thinly sliced leek or onion
  • 1 cup diced carrot (3 carrots)
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 6 Tb all-purpose flour
  • 2 ½ cups chicken broth
  • 4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

  • 1 Tb chopped fresh thyme or 1 tsp. dried thyme
  • 1 tsp kosher salt

How To Prepare:

  • Roll puff pastry sheet into a 12-inch square on a lightly floured surface. Cut into 16 (3 inch) squares. Set aside.
  • Set oven temperature to 400 Degrees.
  • Remove the skin from the rotisserie chicken and shred the meat.
  • Set skillet on the stove top and turn heat to medium high. Melt the butter and add Canola oil. When butter sizzles, add carrots. Allow carrots to saute' for 4 minutes then add the onions and saute' the vegetables until they are tender enough to be easily pierced with a fork. 6-8 minutes.
  • Sprinkle the 6 Tb. of flour over the vegetables, stir and cook the flour and vegetable mixture for 1 minute.
  • Pour the chicken broth into the skillet and gently stir to incorporate the broth and flour mixture. Simmer the ingredients for 3-4 minutes until thickened.
  • Adding cream is a choice. If you wish, add the cream now, otherwise, continue with the recipe without cream.
  • Add Spicy Beer Mustard, chicken, peas, thyme, salt, pepper and parsley (if using).
  • Taste, and season more if desired. Check the consistency of the sauce. If too thick add more broth. Remove from heat.
  • Combine the egg with the water and whisk until blended. Brush the pasty squares with the egg wash: arrange the squares on top of hot chicken mixture in skillet, slightly overlapping so entire surface is covered. Place skillet on a rimmed baking sheet.
  • Transfer baking sheet to preheated oven. Bake until top is browned and filling is bubbly about 20 minutes. Remove from oven and let stand 10 minutes. Serve.

Blushing Bee Cocktail

Blushing Bee

Blushing Bee Cocktail

Blushing Bee

I celebrate all things green and growing in April, and toast  to Spring. I’m lifting a glass sparkling with a fresh squeeze of citrus juice and blended with  Buzz Savories local honey. I also lift myself out of my ordinary eating routine through 5 months of winter doldrums with a Spring Tonic.   

Celebrate with the Blushing Bee Cocktail or renew and refresh with the Blushing Bee tonic. Make a honey simple syrup then squeeze a fresh lemon and a lime, add a tablespoon of cranberry juice for the blush then shake with ice.  The cocktail calls for vodka. Call it a tonic or call it a cocktail, sip the Blushing Bee for the light citrus flavor and the aroma of flowering apple trees and lilacs. 

Honey syrup is the key to the refreshing flavor of this sipping aperitif. Honey takes a bow in this drink as it blends with the acid of the citrus juices to make a smooth sipping beverage, thereby acquire a local honey, like Buzz Savories Artisanal Honey, for the flavor and the quality of 100% honey.   

I advise incorporating cranberry juice for color.  I did not want to buy a quart of cranberry juice to add the “blush” to the tonic/cocktail instead I poured 2 tablespoons of cherry syrup from a bottle I saved for months in the refrigerator. The cherry syrup turned the Blushing Bee Cocktail brown!  Cranberry juice adds a rose pink to the mix. 

To double or triple the recipe, make the honey syrup a day or a week before your friends arrive.  Squeeze the citrus several hours prior to the party and refrigerate.   

The shake process takes this drink to a higher level of flavor so fill a quart jar 2/3 full of ice then pour the citrus/honey mixture over and shake, shake, shake, then strain into glasses and serve.

Buzz Savories Deviled Eggs

Deviled Eggs

Savory, Tangy, and a Mouthful of Flavor

Buzz Savories Deviled Eggs

Hard-boiled Egg

Easter brings new beginnings  – forsythia, flowering almond, and wild plum blossoms blooming on bare branches and sunny daffodils, red tulips and deep blue hyacinths lifting their blooms over the shreds of autumn leaves.

Over time, the lowly egg has earned the honor of symbolizing Spring and new life.

At Buzz Savories we honor Spring, new beginnings, and eggs with a recipe for Deviled Eggs that lifts the common egg into the “May I have another, please?” category.

Our Deviled Egg recipe features Spicy Beer Mustard as a prime ingredient for the savory sauce. Buzz Savories mustards evolved from a mixture of 9 natural ingredients creating a rich and interesting old world flavor that adds spice and richness. Serve Buzz Savories Deviled Eggs as appetizers or even better, a colorful, edible centerpiece for your Easter table.

I will repeat as I most often do when speaking about Buzz Savories’ recipes, “Make plenty because guests rave about this tasty protein- packed egg.”

Lucky St. Patrick’s Day Recipes

Lucky St. Patrick's Day Recipes

Corned Beef Roast & Corned Beef Sliders

Corned Beef and cabbage are considered a traditional St. Patrick’s Day feast around the world yet this combination of beef brisket cured in rock salt and spices and cooked with cabbage did not originate in Ireland. Instead historians think corned beef and cabbage stew was popularized by Irish immigrants to the U.S. because it was less expensive than the real Irish tradition of beef and potatoes often found in Irish stew.

On St. Patrick’s Day, I like to honor the Irish with us today and yesteryear by serving Corned Beef in the shape and flavor of a Corned Beef and Sauerkraut Slider. The recipe recalls a famous sandwich invented in Nebraska – the Reuben Sandwich. The Rueben, also a combination of sauerkraut and corned beef and Swiss cheese was on the menu at the Blackstone Hotel in Omaha, Nebraska, a city known in its early years for its beef packing industry.

Corned Beef Sliders

On St, Patrick’s Day I make and serve the Corned Beef Sliders because my guests and family relish these small sandwiches filled with flavor, and we all feel lucky when we celebrate this savory Irish tradition.

The sauce may join your favorite dips and spreads. The mix of Buzz Savories Spicy Beer Mustard, Thousand Island Dressing and Horseradish Sauce brings flavor to the table and your guests will follow and ask for another.

Corned Beef Sliders require corned beef and this year I’m roasting mine with a Buzz Savories Honey Mustard glaze, Roasting brings out a subtle and delectable beefy flavor, and roasted corned beef slices paper thin so it’s easy to stack on the slider buns. The Buzz Savories Honey Mustard glaze also adds a touch of sweet with heat. Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Share the Goodness of Life and Bees – Bake a Honey/Pecan Pie

Buzz Savories Honey Pie

Happy Valentine’s Day! I’m feeling happy to greet February 2024 because for us in Nebraska January outdid its reputation for cold and ice. We struggled with below zero temperatures, 30 mph winds and snow blowing and piling up. February  offers more sun, longer days and warmer winds.

I’m making and sending a recipe to celebrate a day devoted to friendship and appreciation for one another and sweetness. I baked a Honey Pie to commemorate Valentine’s Day 2024. 

Buzz Savories’  Honey Pie tastes delicate as a sip of nectar and slightly sweet although not sugar sweet. 

Buzz Savories Honey Pie

With only 5 ingredients + a pie crust, Buzz Savories Honey Pie will fit  sweetly into your Valentine celebrations.  Please, acquire a local honey like Buzz Savories because the flavor of the honey blooms in this recipe, and a local honey surpasses all commercial squeeze bottle honey.

What You'll Need:

  • 1 shell frozen pie crust
  • 1 cup Buzz Savories artisanal honey
  • 1 cup whole pecans (enough pecans to completely cover the bottom of the pie crust)
  • 2 Tb. butter
  • 3 eggs beaten but not frothy
  • 1 tsp vanilla

How To Prepare:

  • Pre-heat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Arrange the pecans across the bottom of the pie crust.
  • Whip the eggs until thoroughly mixed but not frothy.
  • Add the vanilla to the eggs.
  • Place honey in a 2 cup heavy-bottomed sauce pan.
  • Slowly bring the temperature of the honey up to a simmer and when it begins to bubble, take the honey off stove.
  • Add butter to the honey and stir.
  • Add the eggs and vanilla mixture to the honey and quickly whip with a wire whip to thoroughly mix the ingredients. Pour the mixture into the pie shell.

  • Cool to room temperature before cutting and can be made a day ahead, covered loosely and refrigerated.

Notes

You may want to bake the pie on a cooking sheet because it will be full and difficult to carry from work table to oven although it will not bubble over the pie pan

How I fell in love with a salmon fillet

Honey Mustard Salmon in foil

Can a Salmon Fillet Recipe Bring Happiness?

I eat salmon almost any way it comes to my  plate – grilled, roasted, poached, fried in a croquette, and even canned salmon served cold in a salad.  I appreciate the health benefits, the color and moist, tender chew although I was often disappointed with salmon’s bland flavor. Then  I met a wonderful recipe that brings happiness to every taste bud on my palate. 

The recipe – Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil – checks all my criteria for a superb main course:  flavor I can taste and then want to taste again, moist, fail-safe cooking process, easy clean-up and also simple to make and serve for any number of guests.

I’m impressed and a little  in love with Buzz Savories Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil.  I keep a jar of Buzz Savories Honey Mustard handy for times when a salmon fillet or a salmon steak comes knocking. 

Eat well.

  • ⅓ cup Buzz Savories Honey Mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
  • 2 Tb. fresh lemon juice
  • ¼ tsp smoked paprika
  • ¼ tsp Kosher salt or sea salt
  • ⅛ tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • ½-1 tsp olive oil to thin the sauce so it can be easily spread (if needed)
  • 1 handful parsley, finely minced parsley adds flavor and color

How To Prepare:

To Make Honey Mustard Salmon in Foil

  • Heat oven to 325 Degrees or heat a grill to medium heat.
  • Whisk all Honey Mustard Sauce ingredients together for the Honey Mustard Sauce.
  • Line a large baking sheet with with a large sheet of aluminum foil. Mist the foil with cooking spray, then lay out the salmon in the middle of the foil.
  • Spoon the Buzz Savories Honey Mustard sauce on top of the salmon, and spread it evenly so that it covers the top of the salmon.
  • Fold the sides of the aluminum foil up and over the top of the salmon until it is completely enclosed. (If your sheet of foil is not large enough, place a second sheet of foil on top and fold the edges so that it forms a sealed packet.)
  • Bake for 14-15 minutes, or until the salmon is almost completely cooked through. (Cooking times will vary on the thickness of your salmon.) Remove the salmon from the oven and carefully open and pull back the aluminum foil so that the top of the fish is completely exposed. (Be careful, hot steam will be released!) Change the oven setting to broil, then return the salmon to the oven and broil for 2-3 minutes (watch closely to be sure the sauce does not burn).

To Cook on the Grill

  • Carefully transfer the packet of salmon to the grill, and grill for 12-14 minutes until the salmon is almost completely cooked through (Check more often if the salmon you are grilling is thinner). Carefully open and pull back the foil so that the top of the fish is completely exposed. Continue cooking for 3-5 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
  • Remove salmon from the oven or the grill. Sprinkle the top of the salmon evenly with parsley, and serve immediately.

For special occasions, I blend the 2 ingredient Baker’s frosting then dip the surface of the cookie into the dish of frosting and add the sprinkles for a Holiday vibe.

Honey-grahams make a satisfying and nutritious snack. These cookies  taste delicious with a glass of milk, juice or a cup of coffee.   I think you and your family will like them too.

Honey Grahams - A Christmas Cookie

Honey Grahams taste crisp and sweet with a warm honey flavor. I enjoy making these cookies because of their ease in mixing and roll-out. I can choose to make either crackers or cut-outs or both. Important note: Buzz Savories honey is the primary ingredient of the exceptional Honey Graham cracker/cookie flavor. Make this cookie as delicious and good-for-you as possible by searching for and buying a local honey.

Equipment

  • sheet pan

What You'll Need:

  • 2 cups whole wheat flour
  • 1 cup unbleached flour
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • ½ tsp soda
  • ½ cup brown sugar
  • ½ cup butter
  • ⅓ cup Buzz Savories local honey
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • ½ cup milk

Frosting (optional)

  • 2 cups powdered sugar
  • 4-5 Tb Half and Half cream
  • ½ tsp vanilla
  • 1 pinch sparkles/cookie sprinkles
  • drops a gel or food color of your choice

How To Prepare:

  • Measure and stir together the dry ingredients.
  • Cream the butter, brown sugar, and honey.
  • Add vanilla and milk to the wet ingredients (the mixture will look curdled).
  • Combine the wet and dry ingredients and mix to blend.
  • Place the dough in a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Refrigerate over night.
  • On day 2, divide the dough into 4 equal parts. I weigh each quarter although if a scale is not available, form the dough into quarters that are as equal in weight that you can make them.
  • Set oven temperature to 350 Degrees.
  • Lightly flour a pastry cloth or a flat surface for rolling the dough.
  • Unwrap one quarter and roll the dough into a 6" x 15" rectangle.
  • Cut the shapes with a cookie cutter or lightly mark squares if you are making graham crackers.
  • For crackers, prick the surface with a fork and sprinkle with sugar or a cinnamon (light on cinnamon) and sugar mix.
  • Bake 13-15 minutes until the edges turn slightly darker brown. The cookies/crackers crisp when they cool

Frosting

  • Blend the ingredients and mix until smooth.
  • Divide into several saucers and color each as you wish.
  • Dip the surface of the cookie into the frosting, sprinkle and set aside to dry.
  • I painted the cookies in the photo with a pastry brush
  • Set aside for the frosting to harden. Eating is the best part
