Ingredients

1 pound skinless boneless chicken breast halves, cubed
1 cup sliced carrots
1 cup frozen green peas
½ cup sliced celery
⅓ cup butter
⅓ cup chopped onion
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon celery seed
1¾ cups chicken broth
⅔ cup milk
2 9-inch unbaked pie crusts

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Gather all your ingredients to streamline the cooking process.
Step 2: Cook the Chicken and Vegetables: In a saucepan, combine the cubed chicken, sliced carrots, frozen peas, and sliced celery. Add enough water to cover the ingredients and bring to a boil.
Boil for 15 minutes, then remove from heat and drain the mixture.
Step 3: Make the Creamy Filling: While the chicken is cooking, melt the butter in another saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 to 7 minutes.
Stir in the flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed, cooking for another minute.
Slowly stir in the chicken broth and milk. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 4: Assemble the Pot Pie: Place the cooked chicken and vegetable mixture in the bottom pie crust. Pour the hot broth mixture over the top.
Cover with the top crust, sealing the edges. Cut away any excess dough and make several small slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
Step 5: Bake: Bake in the preheated 425°F oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. Allow the pie to cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
