Slow Cooker Veggie and Chicken Pot Pie

Serves 12
Time 9 hr 25 min
This easy veggie-filled interpretation of pot pie takes advantage of a slow cooker to make the filling and tops individual portions with homemade sweet potato biscuits. For a vegetarian version, omit the chicken thighs and use vegetable broth in place of chicken broth. We stir in the peas and carrots toward the end of cooking so they keep their bright color.

Method

In a (6-quart) slow cooker, vigorously whisk together broth, 1/2 cup of the flour, 1/4 cup of the sweet potato purée, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and pepper.

Stir in potatoes, chicken, onion, leafy greens, and cook on the low setting, stirring occasionally until thickened, fragrant and very tender, about 8 hours.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Stir peas and carrots and corn into the slow cooker and cook for 30 minutes more.

Meanwhile make the biscuits. In a large bowl, whisk together buttermilk, remaining 3/4 cup sweet potato purée and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Whisk in remaining 1 cup flour, cornmeal and baking soda, just until combined.

Drop onto a large, parchment-paper-lined baking sheet to form 12 biscuits.

Bake until golden brown and cooked through, about 20 minutes. (Biscuits will puff, spread and bake together.)

When ready to serve, stir parsley into pot pie mixture. Spoon into bowls. Top each serving with a sweet potato biscuit.
