Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked chicken
• 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
• 0.33 cup Butter
• 0.33 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.75 cups Chicken broth
• 0.67 cup Milk
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme
• 2 pieces Unbaked pie crusts

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Step 3

Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and thyme to create a smooth paste, cooking and stirring for about 1 minute.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk. Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture thickens and bubbles, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Stir the cooked chicken and frozen vegetables into the sauce until evenly coated.

Step 6

Line a 9-inch pie dish with one of the unbaked pie crusts, pressing it gently into the bottom and sides of the pan.

Step 7

Pour the chicken filling into the crust-lined dish, spreading it out evenly.

Step 8

Top the filling with the second pie crust. Seal the edges by pinching them together, then cut a few small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape during baking.

Step 9

Place the pie on a baking sheet to catch drips, then bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.

Step 10

Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
