Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450g) boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter
- 1/2 cup (60g) all-purpose flour
- 2 cups (480ml) chicken broth
- 1/2 cup (120ml) whole milk
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 carrots, peeled and chopped
- 2 celery stalks, chopped
- 1 cup (150g) frozen peas
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pie crusts, store-bought or homemade
Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until it's no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside.
-
Add the onion, carrots, and celery to the same pot and sauté until they're tender, about 5-7 minutes.
-
Add the flour to the pot and whisk it into the vegetables and butter until it forms a paste. Cook the mixture for 1-2 minutes.
-
Gradually add the chicken broth and milk to the pot, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.
-
Add the frozen peas, thyme, salt, and pepper to the pot and stir until everything is combined.
-
Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat and let it simmer for 10-15 minutes or until it has thickened.
-
Remove the pot from the heat and stir in the cooked chicken.
-
Roll out one of the pie crusts and place it into a 9-inch (23cm) pie dish. Trim the edges.
-
Pour the chicken mixture into the pie crust.
-
Roll out the second pie crust and place it over the top of the chicken mixture. Trim the edges and crimp them together to seal the pie.
-
Cut a few slits into the top of the pie to allow steam to escape.
-
Bake the chicken pot pie for 45-50 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
-
Let the pie cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
