- Make filling: In a 5-qt saucepan bring 3 qts water to a boil. Add in chicken and simmer, uncovered, 20 min. Remove pan from heat and let stand 30 min. Transfer chicken to a bowl, discarding cooking liquid, and cold. Throw away skin and bones. Cut chicken into 3/4-inch cubes and return to bowl.
- In a 3-qt saucepan bring 2 qts water to a boil and cook onions till tender, 7 to 8 min. Transfer onions with a slotted spoon to a bowl of ice and cool water, reserving cooking liquid in pan. Cut root ends off onions and peel. Add in onions to chicken.
- Return reserved cooking liquid to a boil and cook carrots and celery till just tender, 4 to 5 min. Drain carrots and celery and add in with peas to chicken mix.
- In pan cook mushrooms in 1/2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil over moderate heat, stirring, till softened and golden and all liquid they give off is evaporated and add in to chicken mix.
- In pan cook shallots with bay leaf, thyme, and tarragon in remaining 1 1/2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil over moderately-low heat, stirring, till soft and pale golden brown and stir in flour. Cook mix, stirring, 3 min (it will look crumbly) and gradually whisk in wine, broth, nutmeg, and salt and pepper to taste. Simmer sauce 5 min, whisking occasionally, and whisk in sherry. Throw away bay leaf. Pour sauce over chicken mix and stir till combined well. Filling may be made 1 day ahead, cooled, uncovered, and chilled, covered.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- Make mashed potatoes: Peel potatoes and cut into 1-inch pcs. In a saucepan cover potatoes with water by 1 inch simmer till very tender, 10 to 15 min. Reserve about 1/3 c. cooking liquid and drain potatoes. In batches force potatoes through a ricer or possibly food mill fitted with medium disk into a bowl and stir in lowfat sour cream, chives, salt and pepper to taste, and sufficient reserved cooking liquid to reach a fluffy consistency. Transfer potatoes to a pastry bag fitted with a 1/2-inch fluted tip.
- Spread filling in a 1 1/2- to 2-qt gratin dish or possibly other shallow baking dish. Pipe mashed potatoes decoratively in mounds on filling and bake in middle of oven till filling is bubbling and potatoes are golden brown on edges, about 25 min.
