Prep Time

30 minutes

Cook Time

30 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cooked and diced
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 2 ready-made pie crusts

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter and add the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and stir to coat the vegetables. Slowly add the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes. Add the cooked chicken, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Stir in the peas and corn. Pour the filling into a 9-inch (23 cm) pie plate. Roll out one of the pie crusts and place it over the filling. Trim off any excess dough. Roll out the second crust and place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges.

Equipment

  • Large skillet
  • 9-inch (23 cm) pie plate
  • Rolling pin
  • Pastry brush

Notes

For a lattice-top crust, use a pastry wheel to cut the dough into strips and weave them over the filling. For a full top crust, use a pastry brush to brush the top crust with an egg wash (1 egg whisked with 1 tablespoon of water) before baking.
