- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 Tbsp butter
- 1/4 cup flour
- 1 cubes chicken boullion**
- 3/4 tsp poultry seasoning
- 3 leaves dried sage ((crushed))
- 1/8 tsp celery seeds
- salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- garlic powder & onion powder
- marjoram, savory, thyme
Method
- Wash potatoes and bake in oven at 425°F for about 40 minutes or until done and tender.
- While potatoes are baking, prepare the Chicken Pot Pie Filling:
In a large frying pan, sautee garlic in butter for 1 minute on medium heat. - Add onions, carrots and celery and sautee 4-5 minutes until onion is tender and translucent.
- Add remaining vegetables and sautee 2 minutes.
- Add flour and stir well to coat the veggies.
- Add bouillon cubes (if using) and water (or broth) and stir well.
- Add milk or cream and stir.
- Add seasonings and stir to combine.
- Lower heat to medium low and allow to simmer while the potatoes finish cooking. Taste for seasoning.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, remove from oven and carefully cut in half and scoop the hot potato insides into a bowl, reserving the potato skins
- Mash the potatoes and add Boursin™ cheese and ¾ cup of shredded marble cheese along with milk or cream and blend well.
- Line up the 12 remaining potato skin shells in the bottom of a 9 x 13” casserole dish.
- Using a ladle, carefully scoop chicken pot pie filling from the frying pan and fill each potato shell with about ¼ to ⅓ cup of the pot pie filling. Pour over any extra pot pie filling over the potato shells.
- Top each potato with the mashed cheese potato mixture.
- Finish by using reserved shredded marble cheese to top each of the potato mounds.
- Bake in oven at 425°F for about ten minutes or until cheese is slightly browned. Finish under the broiler if needed to brown the cheese.
Recipe Notes
*Boursin™ cheese can be substitued with ricotta cheese or more shredded marble cheese if desired.
**boullion cubes can be replaced with chicken broth if desired. When using broth, omit water and replace with same amount of broth instead.
