How to Make Turkey Pot Pie

  1. Step 1

    Preheat oven to 400°F. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil; set aside. Lightly grease a 13x9-inch casserole dish with nonstick cooking spray; set aside.

  2. Step 2

    In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together ½ cup flour and vegetable stock; set aside.

  3. Step 3

    In a large saucepan, add the olive oil and heat over medium until shimmering. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the onion, carrots and celery and sauté for 5 minutes, until the celery is tender. Add the wine and simmer until it has partially evaporated, about 1 to 2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Add the flour-broth mixture, milk, and remaining ¼ cup flour; simmer until thick and bubbly, about 2 minutes. Add the turkey, peas, parsley and lemon zest; return to a simmer and cook for 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add the thyme, sage, black pepper, garlic powder and onion powder; mix until well combined. Transfer the turkey mixture to the prepared baking dish.

  5. Step 5

    Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a clean work surface; cover the remaining phyllo sheets with a towel. Brush the phyllo sheet lightly with butter. Lay the phyllo on top of the filling. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets and butter, loosely stacking the phyllo over the chicken filling.

  6. Step 6

    Transfer the pie to the prepared baking sheet and bake until the phyllo is deep golden brown and crispy, and the filling is bubbly, about 30 minutes. Garnish with fresh thyme sprigs, if desired.
