Blackbird Pie Inspired by Game of Thrones

Blackbird Pie is a dish that hails from the fantasy realm of Westeros in the popular television series Game of Thrones. Known for its dramatic presentation, this dish represents not only the culinary extravagance of the nobility but also the rich history and feasts depicted in the series. While traditionally featuring live birds released from the pie, our modern adaptation focuses on flavor and practicality.

Ingredients

Preparation

Prepare the Meats

If using blackbird, ensure the meat is properly cleaned and plucked. Alternatively, use chicken which provides a similar flavor profile. Cut the meat into small pieces suitable for a pie filling.

Sauté the Aromatics

In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onions and garlic, sautéing until fragrant. Incorporate thyme, rosemary, and sage, continuing to stir gently.

Create the Filling

Add the diced meat to the skillet, followed by a sprinkle of flour to form a roux. Gradually add broth to create a smooth sauce. Stir in chopped carrots and peas for added texture and nutrition. Season generously with salt and pepper.

Assemble the Pie

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out the pie crust and line your chosen baking dish. Spoon in the filling, making sure to distribute evenly. Cover with a top layer of pie crust, crimping the edges to seal, and make slits for steam to escape. Brush with an egg wash for a golden finish.

Cooking Process

Bake the pie in your preheated oven for around 45 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Use a cooking timer for accuracy.

Enjoying the Meal

Allow the Blackbird Pie to rest before slicing. Pair with a robust wine or a frothy ale to complement the rich flavors. Whether at a regal event or a cozy evening, this pie promises to transport your taste buds to the halls of epic feasts.
