Ingredients
- 1 refrigerated pie crust
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
- 2 boneless chicken breasts, cooked and shredded
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 teaspoon dried basil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
- Begin by preheating the oven to 425°F.
- In a large skillet, heat the butter over medium heat and cook the diced onion and minced garlic until they are soft, which should take around 5 minutes.
- Mix the flour in and let it cook for an extra two minutes.
- Slowly add the chicken broth, thyme, basil, salt, heavy cream, and pepper, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
- Mix in the shredded chicken and frozen vegetables.
- Take one pie dough out of its packaging and place it in a 9-inch pie dish.
- Fill the dish with the chicken and vegetable mixture, top with the other rolled-out pie crust, seal the edges, and make several slits in the top to release steam.
- Allow the dish to bake for a time span of 25 to 30 minutes in the preheated oven until the surface of the crust turns into a golden brown hue.
