Creating the Perfect Dough: Begin with the heart of our dish. In a food processor, blend flour and salt until perfectly combined. Add cold, buttery pieces and pulse until they resemble large peas. A mixture of sour cream and ice water brings it all together, resulting in a dough that’s both tender and flaky. After a brief chill, it’s ready to elevate your culinary creation.
Roasting the Chicken and Vegetables: Kickstart the savory symphony by browning chicken pieces in a sizzling skillet. Once golden, transfer them to heavenly heights in the oven. In the same skillet, dance pearl onions until browned, then add a medley of veggies. Return the chicken to the spotlight for a succulent roast, delivering a melody of flavors that will leave you yearning for more.
Perfecting the Dough: Our delectable crust deserves a moment of its own. Roll out the dough to perfection on a floured parchment sheet, creating a 14-inch circle. With artistic finesse, fold and crimp to form a heavenly 12-inch round with a fluted edge. Adorn with oval vents and intricate cutouts, turning your dish into a visual masterpiece.
