Ingredients

1 cup diced onions
1 cup diced carrots
1 cup diced celery
1/3 cup butter for sautéing
1/3 cup flour for thickening
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk
2 cups shredded cooked chicken

1 package pie crust store-bought
to taste salt
to taste pepper
1/2 tsp thyme

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Step 2: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add onions, carrots, and celery, and sauté until soft, about 5-7 minutes.
Step 3: Stir in the flour and cook for 1 more minute.
Step 4: Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, bringing to a gentle simmer until thickened.
Step 5: Add the shredded chicken, peas, and seasonings. Mix well.
Step 6: Pour the mixture into a pie crust and cover with another crust. Cut slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
Step 7: Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.

Notes

Remember to cover the edges with foil if they brown too quickly. Enjoy your delicious chicken pot pie with a simple green salad or garlic bread for a complete meal!
