Posted by Taylor Shellfish

Seattle foodie and friend to Taylor Shellfish, Annie Nguyen, has sent us another amazing recipe from her home kitchen. Oyster Pot Pie is a perfect winter meal for any cold Pacific Northwest day! 

If you are not a huge fan of just plain raw oysters, then this recipe is just for you. We are taking the classic chicken pot pie and making a pot pie using oysters and adding our favorite with it - bacon! Everyone loves bacon right?! With this recipe we will be using puff pastry to cover our mini pots, let it bake to that nice golden and buttery top. Bake into it and enjoy. So let’s get baking... - Annie
