leftover chicken breast,diced onions,tater,celery,carrots,a bit of garlic,I made the stock out of the carcass,sauteed;d the veggies till almost cooked through,made a roux then added the stock and thickened it,at the last minute before adding to the pie I put frozen peas in..

the crust I made was 2 1/2 cups of flour,with a 1/2 tsp salt.2 cubes of cold butter cut into the flour until its like a dirt consistency.Add about a 1/2 cup of ice water tablespoon at a time till it will just come together and form a ball,refer for a hr or so then cut in half for top and bottom crust

Post by: Smokepole on January 31, 2012, 07:38:23 AM: I never tried game in a pot pie. Sounds like a great idea. Did you boil the rabbit up first? Gotta get them tender somehow...

If ultra lazy you can just use a quick biscuit topping and not have pastry to rollout.
