Directions

  1. For the filling: In a large stockpot, combine, chicken stock with carrots, celery, onions, crushed red pepper, black pepper and sage. Bring to boil over medium-high heat, then boil until vegetables are tender. In a separate pot, parboil potatoes 5 minutes. Meanwhile, debone chicken. (You want thick chunks of light and dark meat.) Add meat to the stockpot. Bring mixture to a rolling boil and add potatoes. Combine cornstarch with the ice water, then add the cornstarch slurry to the filling to thicken, simmering until you reach desired thickness.
  2. For the crust: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  3. Combine lard and salt in a bowl. Add flour and mix. Stir in the ice water. Once mixture is thick and doughlike, roll into a ball. Using rolling pin, roll dough flat, about 1/2-inch thick. Cut into six 8-inch circles. Place rounds on a baking sheet, then bake 10 minutes. Ladle out servings of pot pie and top each with a crust round.
