Ham Solo Pot Pie

You’ll need:

2 frozen pie crusts
1 egg plus 1 Tablespoon water, for egg wash
salt

Filling ingredients:

2 Tablespoons unsalted butter
1/2 onion diced small
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
Pinch of thyme
2 Tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 (14.5 ounce) can chicken broth
1 potato, peeled and diced small
1/2 cup corn
1/2 cup peas
1-1/2 cups ham, cubed

A baking dish with a pie crust shaped and placed inside.

Step 1: Roll out half the dough and press into a 9”x5” loaf pan, along the bottom and the sides, cutting off the excess. Place into the refrigerator.

Step 2: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.

Step 3: In a skillet over medium-high heat, sauté the onion, carrots, and celery in butter. Season with thyme. Cook until the vegetables are softened.

Step 4: Stir in the flour and cook through, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken broth, cooking over high heat until just boiling.

Step 5: Once boiling, add the potatoes, corn, peas, and ham. Bring to a boil again, cook for 8-10 minutes until potatoes start to soften, then turn off the heat.

Step 6: Spoon the filling in the dough-prepped loaf pan.

Step 7: Roll out the second pie dough and place onto the filled loaf pan, cutting away the excess. Cut slits into the top.

Step 8: Cut out a Millennium Falcon shape and place onto the pie.

Step 9: Brush with egg wash then sprinkle with salt.

Step 10: Place onto a baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes. Serve immediately.
