Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for flouring
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon fine salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 8 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, sliced
- 1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
- 3/4 cup milk, plus more for brushing
Instructions
- For the biscuit rounds: Whisk the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar together in a large bowl. Using your fingers, rub 3 tablespoons of the butter into the flour until the mixture is sandy. Work in the remaining 5 tablespoons butter until it forms pea-size pieces. Stir the lemon zest into the milk; stir the milk into the flour mixture to make a soft dough.
- Lightly flour a work surface. Turn the dough out onto the work surface and pat into a 1/2-inch-thick rectangle. Fold the dough in thirds as you would a business letter, then pat into a 1/2-inch-thick disc. Cut out 8 biscuit rounds using a 3-inch cutter, set on a tray, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the smoked turkey and file gumbo: Add the vegetable oil to a soup pot over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens to a paste and turns medium brown, about 10 minutes. Add the celery, onions and bell peppers and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the chicken stock, turkey meat, Cajun seasoning and bay leaves. Bring to a boil, lower the heat and simmer until the soup thickens slightly, about 30 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
- Add the file powder, salt, black pepper, cayenne and the oysters with any reserved liquor to the gumbo pot. Simmer until the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- To assemble the pot pie: Spoon the rice in the bottom of the baking dish. Top with 8 cups of gumbo. Arrange the biscuit rounds on top of the gumbo and brush lightly with milk. Put the baking dish on a baking sheet and bake until golden brown, about 20 to 25 minutes. Let the potpie rest for 5 minutes before serving.
