Chicken, Artichoke, And Ricotta Pie

  1. Combine flour, butter, 3/4 cup ricotta, and salt in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse until the mixture just comes together, then turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead for a few minutes until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for at least 1 hour.
  2. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. Put the chicken thighs in a saucepan and cover them with water. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then simmer gently until cooked through (about 20 minutes). Drain. When cool enough to handle, remove skin and bones and chop meat.
  3. Saute onion, carrot, and celery in olive oil until just wilted and taking on some color. Remove from heat.
  4. In a large bowl, combine chopped chicken, onion mixture, sliced artichoke hearts, 3/4 cup ricotta, parmigiano-reggiano cheese, lemon zest and salt and pepper to taste. Add the beaten eggs, folding in lightly but thoroughly.
  5. On a lightly floured board, roll out about two-thirds of the chilled pastry dough to fit, with some overhang, a deep, 10-inch pie plate. Transfer the pastry to the pie plate and add the filling mixture, smoothing the top. Roll out the last third of the pastry dough and place on top of the filling. Crimp the two layers of pastry together to form a good seal and slash several steam vents on the top. If desired, brush the top of the pie with an egg wash.
  6. Bake pie for 35 - 40 minutes, until nicely browned. Cool on a rack and serve warm or at room temperature.
