CHICKEN POT PIE

 

3 lb chicken breasts, cubed

2 1/2 tsp salt

1 stalk celery, chopped

1/2 tsp turmeric

chopped parsley

4 hard-boiled eggs, cut into wedges

1 onion, chopped

4 potatoes, peeled, cut

1/3 tsp pepper

Dough:

2 cups flour

1/2 tsp salt

2 eggs, beaten

4-6 tbs water

 

Place chicken in Dutch oven, add salt, pepper, celery, onion, and turmeric.  Bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer about 1 hour.  Do not overcook.  Remove chicken from broth.  To make dough, place flour in a medium pot.  Make a well in the center of the flour and add the eggs and salt.  Gradually work eggs into the flour, adding only enough water to make a soft but not sticky dough.  Knead 5 minutes.  Cover the dough and let rest 30 minutes.  Divide the dough in half and roll out each as thinly as possible into a 15in square and cut each square into 2in squares with a sharp knife.  Add potatoes and celery to the broth.  Simmer 25 minutes until veggies are tender.  Add chicken pieces and bring to boil.  Slide the squares of dough into the broth a few at a time, pushing them down gently.  Cover and simmer 20 minutes.  Serve with parsley.
