My Pheasant Pot Pie Recipe is the essence of comfort food! And to make it even more comforting and connect with my Southern roots, I made it with a biscuit topping.I can't think of any situations that are not drastically improved by a pheasant pot pie. Got an unexpected $2,000 car repair bill - make this pheasant pot pie! Your 8-year-old daughter announces she has a boyfriend - make this pheasant pot pie!! Sauteed onion, celery, carrots, garlic, creamy pheasant, and peas all baked under a biscuit topping make tough days end better.To keep this pheasant dish weeknight friendly, I used a Pillsbury Cheddar Garlic Biscuit Mix instead of making homemade biscuits, saving lots of time while yielding an irresistibly flaky pot pie topping.For an impressive presentation, brush the biscuits with melted butter (this will make them a beautiful golden brown). The biscuits will be infused with flavor and photo-worthy so you can share it on Instagram, Facebook and Twitter! When you do, be sure and hashtag #wildgameandfishMake sure to let the Pheasant Pot Pie stand for at least 5 minutes before serving so the filling has time to cool and thicken. This will make it easier and neater when scooping it up and dividing it among hungry family members at the table. Sure, this recipe requires a bit of time to braise the pheasant legs and thighs in the pressure cooker. But once that's out of the way, it's a breeze to assemble, just 30 minutes of hands-on work and this delicious pheasant recipe is on the table.PHEASANT LEG RECIPESI love eating smoked or fried chicken drumsticks. However, eating a pheasant or grouse drumstick is a completely different thing and can be extremely unpleasant because of the rock-hard tendons.Upland bird legs and thighs were made for braising. Pheasants have to walk and run for a living, so their legs are notoriously tough and full of those sharp tendons. When cooking the legs and thighs, a slow, low, and long braise creates meat that falls off the bones so you can easily remove the tendons. I developed this pheasant pot pie recipe with busy parents in mind so I used a pressure cooker to transform these pheasant legs and thighs into something incredibly delicious and tender in just one hour. It's incredibly simple and, although I used pheasant in this instance, you can use any set of upland bird thighs. Grouse Pot Pie is amazing!HOW TO MAKE PHEASANT POT PIE1. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in an oven-safe Dutch oven or pan (at least 3 quarts in size) over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery and 1/2 teaspoon of kosher salt and sauté for 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and sauté another 2 minutes. 2. Stir in the flour and another 1 tablespoon of butter and cook another 2 minutes. 3. Now add 2 cups of the reserved chicken broth you used to pressure cook the pheasant legs and thighs. Then stir in the half and half until the mixture resembles a thick, creamy soup.4. Add lemon juice, peas, and the reserved cooked and shredded pheasant meat. Season to taste with remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt if needed.5. Combine the biscuit mix and milk in a mixing bowl until a soft dough forms. Arrange four 1/4 cup size scoops of the dough on top of the pot pie filling. Bake for 15 minutes, until hot, bubbly, and the biscuits are cooked through. 6. Let rest for 5 minutes before brushing the top of the biscuits with the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter and serving.MORE PHEASANT RECIPESIf you are looking for more great ways to use pheasant in your diet, be sure and check out my Pheasant Florentine and Buffalo Pheasant Dip and Pheasant Salad Sandwich and Pheasant Olive Garden Gnocchi Soup.
