Ingredients

  1. 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  2. 6 ounces frozen butternut squash chunks, thawed (about 1 1/2 cups)
  3. 2 teaspoons Chinese five-spice powder
  4. 8 ounces ground turkey
  5. Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
  6. 6 ounces frozen kale, thawed and drained (about 2 cups)
  7. 1/3 cup chopped walnuts
  8. One 14-ounce package refrigerated pie dough
  9. 1 large egg
  10. 1/2 cup sour cream
  11. Juice of 1 lemon
  12. 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the butternut squash and five-spice powder and cook until the squash is hot, about 2 minutes. Add the turkey, 1 teaspoon salt and a couple turns of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the turkey begins to brown, about 4 minutes. Stir in the kale and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the walnuts. Season with salt and pepper. Spread out on a rimmed baking sheet to cool.
  3. Unroll both sheets of the pie dough on a work surface. Cut each piece of dough into fourths for a total of 8 pieces. Spoon a rounded 1/4 cup of the filling onto half of each piece of dough. Fold the dough over the filling and crimp with a fork to make triangular hand pies. Whisk the egg with 1 tablespoon water, then brush the egg wash onto the pies.
  4. Put the pies at least 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the dough is lightly browned, 15 to 20 minutes.
  5. Mix the sour cream, lemon juice, parsley and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl. Serve with the hand pies.
