Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
- 0.33 cup Unsalted butter
- 0.33 cup All-purpose flour
- 1.5 cups Chicken broth
- 0.67 cup Milk
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 2 sheets Refrigerated pie crusts
- 1 Egg (beaten, for egg wash)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter.
Whisk the flour into the melted butter and cook for 1-2 minutes to create a roux, stirring constantly to avoid lumps.
Gradually pour in the chicken broth and milk while stirring continuously. Allow the mixture to thicken into a creamy sauce.
Season the sauce with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Add the shredded cooked chicken and frozen mixed vegetables to the sauce, stirring until everything is evenly coated.
Remove the skillet from heat and set the filling aside to cool slightly.
Roll out one sheet of pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing into the bottom and edges.
Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the crust-lined pie dish, spreading it evenly.
Place the second sheet of pie crust over the filling. Trim any excess crust and crimp the edges to seal.
Cut small slits or a design into the top crust to allow steam to escape while baking.
Brush the top crust with the beaten egg to ensure a golden finish.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
