Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 6 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 3 cups Cooked and shredded chicken breast
- 2 pieces Refrigerated pie crusts
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Whisk in the flour until smooth and cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.
Gradually stir in the chicken broth, whisking constantly, and bring the mixture to a simmer as it thickens.
Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, salt, and black pepper.
Add the cooked and shredded chicken breast to the sauce and mix until the chicken is fully coated. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Roll out one pie crust and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any overhang.
Pour the chicken filling into the prepared pie crust.
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the filling, sealing the edges by crimping with a fork or your fingers. Trim any excess dough.
Cut a few small slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
In a small bowl, beat the egg and water together to make an egg wash. Brush the top crust evenly with this mixture for a golden finish.
Bake the pie on the center rack of the preheated oven for 35-45 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for at least 10 minutes before serving.
