Ingredients

• 2 cups Cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
• 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 0.33 cup All-purpose flour
• 1.75 cups Chicken broth
• 0.67 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Dried thyme (optional)
• 2 pieces Refrigerated 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. Add the flour and whisk continuously for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.

Step 3

Slowly pour in the chicken broth and milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until the mixture thickens.

Step 4

Add the salt, black pepper, and dried thyme (if using) to season the sauce.

Step 5

Stir the shredded chicken and frozen mixed vegetables into the sauce. Allow the mixture to heat through for 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat.

Step 6

Unroll one of the pie crusts and fit it into a 9-inch pie dish, pressing it against the sides and bottom.

Step 7

Pour the chicken and vegetable filling into the prepared pie crust.

Step 8

Unroll the second pie crust and place it on top of the filling. Pinch the edges of the top and bottom crusts together to seal. Use a sharp knife to cut 3-4 small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

Step 9

Place the pie dish on a baking sheet (to catch any bubbling over) and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Step 10

Allow the pie to cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Slice and enjoy!
