We only ate the legs of the Shawarma Chicken. ððĨ§ So, naturally, the rest became a Shawarma Chicken Pot Pie. The Flavor Hack: I used the leftover spiced oil from the chicken dish to cook the vegetables. The Prep: I diced the potatoes, carrots, onions, and peppers smaller than the meat so the chicken is still the main character. The Secret Sauce: I added Maggi Seasoning AND Worcestershire Sauce. This combination creates that essential "Sweet & Savory" pie taste that makes it addictive. The Seasoning: Paprika, Garlic Powder, and Black Pepper. No Salt needed (the sauces and broth have plenty). The Dough: My 2-year-old made the crust using Salted Butterâwhich meant we didn't have to measure any salt at all. The Allergy Win: She painted the egg wash on the crust perfectly andâmiraculouslyâdidn't get a drop on her face. Ingredients The Protein: Leftover Shawarma Chicken (Everything but the legs). The Veg: Potato, Carrot, Onion, Pepper (Diced small). The Umami Bomb: Maggi Seasoning + Worcestershire Sauce (The key to the "Sweet Savory" taste). The SautÃĐ: Reserved Chicken Oil + Paprika, Garlic Powder, Black Pepper. The Crust: Flour, Salted Butter, Water (No extra salt needed). The Binder: Cornstarch & Frozen Cheese (Added cold). The Paint: Egg Yolks only. Short Cooking Instructions The Chop: Dice potatoes, carrots, onions, and peppers smaller than the chicken. The SautÃĐ: Cook the veggies in the reserved oil from the Shawarma chicken. Add spices, but skip the salt. The Umami: Add Maggi and Worcestershire Sauce while cooking the filling. This builds that rich, savory pie flavor. The Chill: Mix with the chicken and broth, then cool overnight. Add starch and cheese to the cold mix. The Dough: Use Salted Butter for the crust. Let the toddler mix it with ice water. The Paint: Brush with Egg Yolk. (Safety Tip: Watch the toddler like a hawk to avoid face contact). The Bake: Bake until the crust is golden and the filling bubbles. #dadlife #potpie #leftovers #shawarma #bakingwithkids #foodhacks #comfortfood #shorts #stephensnofuncity
