Mini Potato, Steak, and Chorizo Pies

Ingredients

½ cup unsalted butter (4 ounces), divided, plus more for greasing dishes

1 medium-size yellow onion (about 8 ounces), finely chopped (about 1 3/4 cups)

1 medium carrot (about 3 ounces), finely chopped (about 1/2 cup)

2 teaspoons kosher salt, divided

½ teaspoon black pepper, divided

1 pound grass-fed 93% extra-lean ground beef

1 (5 1/2-ounce) link fresh Mexican chorizo, casing removed

6 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups beef stock

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

¾ teaspoon smoked paprika

½ teaspoon dried oregano

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

1 pound, 4 ounces medium-size russet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

Finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley, for garnish

Directions

Preheat oven to 450°F. Grease 6 (12- to 16-ounce) individual pie dishes with butter; set aside. Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large skillet over medium-high. Add onion, carrot, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, and cook, stirring often, until onion is soft but not browned, about 5 minutes. Add ground beef and chorizo; cook, stirring often, until meat is browned and cooked through, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle flour over mixture, and cook, stirring constantly, 2 minutes. Stir in stock, Worcestershire sauce, paprika, and oregano; bring to a boil over medium-high. Reduce heat to low; simmer, stirring often, until flavors meld and vegetables soften, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in mustard and 1/2 teaspoon salt.

Spoon filling evenly into prepared dishes (a heaping 2/3 cup filling each). Top evenly with sliced potatoes. Sprinkle potatoes with remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Microwave remaining 1/4 cup butter in a small microwavable bowl on high until melted, about 1 minute. Brush melted butter evenly over potatoes. Transfer dishes to preheated oven. Bake until pies are golden brown, 25 to 35 minutes. Remove from oven; garnish with parsley.
