Ingredients
- 2 refrigerated pie crusts
- 1/3 cup unsalted butter
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 3/4 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 cup cooked chicken, diced
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Place one pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Stir in the flour and cook for 1 minute, until well combined.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, cooking until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil.
- Add the cooked chicken, frozen vegetables, peas, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.
- Remove the saucepan from heat and let the filling cool slightly.
- Pour the filling into the prepared pie crust.
- Cover the pie with the second pie crust, pressing the edges to seal. Trim any excess crust.
- Using a sharp knife, make a few slits on the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
