Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 425°F.

In a saucepan, melt butter and add onion and celery. Cook until softened. Add flour and stir. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk to make sauce and cook until thickened. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick. Remove from heat and set aside.

Combine cooked chicken, cooked carrots, peas, and potatoes. Add cream of chicken, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning to taste.

Place the chicken mixture in bottom pie crust. Pour hot liquid mixture over the crust.

Cover with top crust, seal edges, and cut away excess dough. Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until pastry is golden brown and filling is bubbly. Cool for 10 minutes before serving.
