Instructions for Poule-Au-Pot (Chicken Pot Pie)

Cut the chicken into individual pieces and brown lightly in the butter. Add the boiling water, carrot, onion, celery leaves, cloves, garlic, bay leaf, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover, then simmer over low heat until the chicken is tender. Place the cooked pieces of chicken in a casserole and top with the potatoes, sliced paper-thin. Make a gravy with 3 cups of the consomme left after the chicken has been cooked, 3 tablespoons of the fat from the top of the consomme and 4 tablespoons of flour. Salt and pepper to taste and pour over the potatoes and chicken. Then top the chicken, potatoes and gravy with a parsley pinwheel, which is prepared in the following manner: Stir together the flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in the shortening with 2 knives, until the particles are the size of peas. Add the milk gradually. Toss lightly with a fork until all the flour has been dampened, then knead quickly into a round ball. Roll on floured board into an oblong shape 1/8 inch thick. Butter top of dough and sprinkle with the minced parsley. Roll the same way you would a jelly roll. Cut in 1 1/2 to 2" lengths. Place cut side on top of casserole in an attractive design. Bake at 425 degrees F for 30 to 40 minutes, or until top is golden brown. NOTES : It is impossible to talke of pie and omit the perennial favorite, Chicken Pot Pie. In the summer, I replace the parsley in the topping with fresh basil, tarragon or sage.
