Instructions
In a large skillet, add the ground beef and Worcestershire sauce. Cook over medium heat until browned (about 8-10 minutes).
Add frozen hash browns, diced garlic, pepper and salt to the skillet. Stir, cover, and cook for 10-12 more minutes on medium heat, stirring every 2-3 minutes.
Remove skillet from heat. Add shredded cheese and stir until mixture is well combined.
Roll out pie dough and cut each piece in half to create 4 semi-circular pieces of dough. Place approximately 3/4-1 cup of beef and potato mixture on top of each piece of dough. Brush edges of the dough lightly with water and then fold and press to seal. Using two fingers, crimp the edges to create decorative border. Repeat with remaining pieces of dough.
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, Italian seasonings, and coarse salt. Brush the top of each pie with the olive oil mixture.
Place pies on a parchment-lined sheet pan and bake at 400°F for 26-28 minutes, or until tops of pies are golden brown in color.
