Ingredients

Scale
  • 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
  • 2 cups mixed vegetables (carrots, celery, peas, etc.)
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (or cornstarch for gluten-free)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream (or milk/almond milk)
  • 1/2 cup butter, divided
  • 1 box (14.1 oz) refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • 1 bay leaf

    • Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Cook chicken until cooked through. Shred or dice.
  • In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat. Add onion and celery and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 1 minute more.
  • Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute, whisking constantly. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth. Bring to a simmer.
  • Add carrots, peas, chicken, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and bay leaf. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
  • Remove bay leaf. Stir in heavy cream and bring to a gentle simmer. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • Line a 9-inch pie dish with one pie crust. Pour in the chicken mixture.
  • Top with the second pie crust. Cut slits in the crust to vent steam.
  • Brush the top crust with an egg wash (egg yolk mixed with a little water).
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
