1egg + 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
In a medium skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and mushrooms and cook until soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Add flour and stir until vegetables are coated.
Add broth slowly while whisking constantly. Mixture will be lumpy but should become smooth as you whisk. Once all broth is incorporated, whisk in the milk.
Stir in thyme, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil and cook for a few minutes until thickened.
Remove from heat and stir in cooked turkey.
Add mixture to a 9 inch pie plate and top with pie crust. Crimp edges and brush with egg wash, if using. (See note.)
Bake until crust is golden and filling is bubbling, about 30-35 minutes.
Notes
NOTES:
This recipe can also be made with chicken instead of turkey.
If you use my foolproof flaky pie crust recipe, you'll end up with 2 crusts. Wrap one well with plastic wrap and store in the freezer for up to 3 months, for another use.
You can make this whole dish in an ovenproof skillet (I like to use cast iron), prepping the filling on the stove top and then baking it in the oven.
