Dr Oz was joined by the Kitchen Diva, Angela Medearis – author of The Kitchen Diva Cooks!, on the Dr Oz Show today. The Kitchen Diva demonstrated her Healthy Chicken Pot Pie Recipe. My husband absolutely LOVE chicken pot pies, but I never make it for him because they are just so bad for you! Dr Oz’s Chicken Pot Pie Recipe has 350 calories and 5 grams of fat per serving – compared to the usual Chicken Pot Pie Recipe which has 1000 calories and 20 grams of fat per serving. What a big difference!
Dr Oz & Kitchen Diva’s Chicken Pot Pie Recipe
Ingredients:
2 tbsp heart-healthy butter blend
2 tbsp olive oil
1/2 cup chopped onions
2 clove garlic, minced
2 tbsp poultry seasoning
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp coarse, grainy mustard
1/2 cup flour
2 cups low-fat, low-sodium chicken stock
2 cups water
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 cups (1/2-in) diced, peeled sweet potatoes
1 cup diced cooked chicken
3 cups cooked, fresh vegetables or 2 cups frozen vegetables
2 cups reduced fat all-purpose baking mix
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg
Butter-flavored cooking oil spray
Directions:
1. Melt the butter and olive oil together in a pan over medium heat.
2. Mix in the onions, garlic, 1/2 tsp of salt and pepper, mustard and 1 TB poultry seasoning. Cook for a few minutes until the onions soften.
3. Stir the flour into the pan and mix constantly for a couple of minutes. This is crucial, or else you will get a lumpy sauce!
4. Slowly mix into the sauce the stock, Worcestershire Sauce and the water. Mix until smooth.
5. Bring the sauce to a boil and mix in the sweet potatoes.
6. Cook the sweet potatoes on low heat for about 6-10 minutes or until they are soft.
7. Mix in the chicken and vegetables.
8. Pre-heat your oven to 400 degrees (although on the tv show, the Kitchen Diva said she does it a t 350 degrees).
9. In a separate bowl, mix together the buttermilk, egg, baking mix and 1 TB poultry seasoning.
10. Place the chicken, vegetables and sauce into a baking dish.
11. Spoon the batter mixture on top of the chicken and vegetable mixture.
12. Bake for 30 minutes or until it is golden brown and delicious!
