  The original recipe uses puff pastry topping over the filling in ramekins. My wife says it's one of best things she has ever eaten. I don't rate it as high as her, but it is tasty.

    It reminds me of the Steal and Ale Pie in the British Isle and Irish pubs, flacky crust with tender steak and gravy and of course, with Guiness.

      I've made the Creole pot pie with pork chops cubed instead of chicken. I'm sure it would work with steak or roast beef. Maybe change up the gravy and use beef stock instead of chicken stock.

        Yeah, the Guinness steak or stew recipe. You can do it like the pie or just mash and steak stew. I'd gotten a bit tired of our typical beef stew and I like the Guinness version a lot better, much more flavor.
        
        My better half has the creole spices and will try your pot soon. Flaky biscuit or more dense?

        It is better with the puff pastry topping. The biscuit was an experiment. The recipe calls for a Tsp of Cajun seasoning. I find that to be too salty. I sprinkle, stir and taste until I get it the way I like it. My wife thinks it's fine with an entire Tsp.

        She used boneless chicken breast and andouille sausage. The recipe asked for boneless chicken thigh pieces which she'll do the next time because she already had the breasts in the fridge.
        
        We'd like to do the flaky pie, but we'd need oven safe dishes to do it right. Instead, she used the trusty corn bread in a box and it works really well. This one will be one of our go to comfort foods, it's delicious!

        There are probably many ways to make that and similar dishes. Our favorite is to dish it into ramekins with puff pastry on top. The puff pastry scraps can be baked up and served on the side for dipping.
