Belongs to largomason Shepherd's Pie 

Allow all the liquid to be absorbed by the meat and vegetables so it doesn’t spill out later.
If you cannot find pearl onions, just chop and add the onions you have at hand.
You can use leftover cooked hamburger meat rather than raw, or make the meat a day ahead and reheat it before cooking.
Top the pie with the Parmesan and Cheddar cheeses to help with the browning process. As the cheese bakes, it makes a nice crust on top of the potatoes.

This recipe can be cut in half. Chicken may be poached 2 days in advance. To store, place chicken and 3 cups strained broth in airtight container and refrigerate. Rice may be prepared up to 2 days in advance. Refrigerate in an airtight container. For a quicker version of this recipe: Rather than cooking the diced carrots with the rice, substitute them and the frozen peas with 2 1/2 cups of frozen peas-and-carrots. Buy a rotisserie chicken (you’ll need about 4 cups shredded chicken) and low-sodium chicken broth instead of poaching your own chicken and making your own broth.
