DoctorOz: Fast & Filling Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

We are back with Dish on Oz, and Dish Crew is about to dish the details in a fast and filling chicken pot pie. It's what's for dinner tonight. You're gonna all love it. While you guys are cooking and having a good time, I am going to go into the audience and shred some chicken and hopefully eat a little bit of it for that pot pie. Who wants to help me? Y'all into this? All right. Play amongst yourselves. All right. Okay. So, we've got to dish the details on this chicken pot pie, because I feel like when you just think about chicken pot pie, doesn't it just make you say, mmm. Well, it's such a Southern-cooked food. Yes. It is. A feel-good food. It is. The audience, I know y'all want to say it. Everybody, mmm. You can smell it. Get it out there. Yes. It's intoxicating. I know. And, Vanessa, you said you have two shortcuts to your filling in your pot pie. Okay. We've got two shortcuts. Instead of actually roasting your own chicken, go to the store and get a roasted chicken plus frozen nuts. Frozen. Yeah. And we are all for the shortcuts. Yes. We like your style. We love the shortcuts. We like the shortcuts. Okay. I'm going to cut down so much time, but you've got your roasted chicken here shredded. I know Dr. Oz is shredding it himself, but throw it in. There you go. Quick. Go. I want to get in. I want to get out. Frozen peas are one of my favorite things to have in my freezer at all times, all year long. You know, everybody can use them in a million ways. Yes. Such a lifesaver in the kitchen. It's a great place to throw in leftovers. It is. Now, Gail, you've got just a biscuit wonderland going on over here. I do. It's people who are so scared of making biscuits. You know, a butter, a butter biscuit, a dough of any kind. It is. But this is my hack. All I have here is all-purpose flour, salt, some baking powder, but all you need, instead of the butter and the milk and using your hands and kneading, this is no need to knead. No need to knead. I like that. I am just going to put in some chives for a little flavor, whisk out my dry ingredients together, and then I'm literally just going to pour in some cream, no butter and no milk cream. You know what? Wow. And it just comes right together. Look at that. But what I would even do is open a can of biscuits. There's that. I know. Open a can of biscuits, put it in a muffin tin, and just fold them over. I know. Do a little egg wash around it, and then put the veggies inside. And there you go. So perfect. Fresh out. Do it. So perfect. Fresh out. And that's how, when you're doing the heavy cream, that takes that fat content that you would get from the butter. Exactly. You don't need the butter mixed with the liquid and vanilla. We love butter. But you know that butter is just cream shaken up a lot, right? So it's fine. This is all you need. It comes together so easily. It's just as sticky. The texture is great. And you're not getting your hands in there, which is no mess, no fuss. It saves so much clean up, and it saves so much time. And then you just take an ice cream scoop and just scoop it and drop those biscuits right in. And they're ready to go. Look at that. I'm here for that. I love this. I'm here for that. That works. All right. Dr. Raza, you're done with that chicken. What are you doing? Where is it? You're eating the chicken. Can you bring it over here? So we can have the chicken. I see how this works. You want to have some more? My goodness. I was trying my best. Oh, we got lots of chicken. All right. Stir that chicken in. Look how much we did there. You did. That's a lot. That's some good protein. There it is. Tina, we got to get that one out of the oven. Because I'm smelling it, and I'm like, getting excited about it. So that's the oven. That's the oven. That's it? 18 minutes. You know, give or take, depending on the heat of your oven. 400 degrees, and you're done. Whoa. Ooh. Can you get it? This is not an oven for short people. That was very graceful. Yes. Look at that. Beautiful. Oh, my God. That's amazing. Let me scoop it out for you. And you got to get a biscuit in every bite, is what you got to do. That's the goal? Mm-hmm. That's the goal. Ooh, thank you. I got a fork. Let's take a bite. Oh, you want everything? Yeah, I know. I'm very demanding. You got to go with that. I love that you did the biscuit, because all that nice filling sops up into that biscuit, and you get all that flavor. It's just like, oh, my gosh. So, Gina, honestly, would you make this in a weeknight? Absolutely. You'd make this happen? I mean, Gina's going to make it. I'm going to come to her house.
