Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until al dente. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta water and drain the rest. Set pasta aside.
While the pasta is cooking, spray a large skillet with olive oil spray and heat over medium heat.
Cut the chicken breast into bite-size pieces and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Add the chicken to the skillet and cook until no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes. Remove from skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the flour and slowly whisk in the chicken broth until smooth. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken.
Gradually whisk in the almond milk and add the cream cheese. Continue whisking until the cream cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth.
Add the thyme, remaining salt and pepper, and stir well. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the vegetables to heat through.
Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and stir to combine. If the sauce is too thick, use a bit of the reserved pasta water to thin it out to your desired consistency.
Toss the cooked pasta with the sauce until everything is well combined.
Serve hot and enjoy your creamy, comforting Chicken Pot Pie Pasta!
