Here’s a recipe you can whip up using your leftover Thanksgiving turkey or even rotisserie chicken, for a quick and super tasty meal! It’s not only comforting but also kid-friendly, earning you a big parent win! You’ll enjoy all the goodness of a flaky homemade pot pie, but in mini form, without the fuss of making everything from scratch. I’m using store-bought biscuits for the topping, but you can also opt for puff pastry cut into circles—both options work great!

Ingredients

Scale
  • You’ll need either 3 refrigerated store-bought biscuits (cut each in half to make them thinner or puff pastry (cut out 6 rounds, each about 4 inches wide with a cookie cutter).)
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 3 cloves of garlic (mashed)
  • 1/2 cup of diced onion
  • 1/2 cup of diced carrots (peeled)
  • 1/2 cup of diced celery
  • 1 teaspoon of dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon of dried sage
  • 1 teaspoon of kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons of arrowroot or cornstarch
  • 1 cup of leftover gravy (or 3/4 cup of chicken broth)
  • 1/2 cup of full-fat coconut milk (or heavy cream)
  • 1 1/2 cups of chopped turkey or shredded rotisserie chicken
  • 1/2 cup of frozen peas


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Place 6 small ramekins (each about 4 ounces) on a baking sheet, grease them, and set them aside.
  2. Cut three of the biscuits in half to make them thinner, and set them aside.
  3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, and sage. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook until the veggies have softened, about 6-7 minutes.
  4. Add the arrowroot or cornstarch, gravy or broth, and coconut milk or heavy cream to the skillet, and stir well. Cook uncovered until the mixture thickens and becomes creamy, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add the turkey or chicken and the peas to the skillet, and remove it from the heat.
  6. Divide the mixture evenly among the prepared ramekins. Top each with a biscuit half.
  7. Bake for 10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden on top.
  8. Let them cool for a bit, then serve and enjoy!
