Notes:

Tweaked to perfection! It sometimes even survives to be leftovers. Looks even better than the picture. Credit to my mother for the pie crust and filling inspiration.

Ingredients:

For the Filling

1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast halves - cubed

1 cup sliced carrots

1 cup frozen green peas

1/2 cup sliced celery

1 crown broccoli

1/3 cup butter

1/3 cup chopped onion

1/3 cup all-purpose flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/4 teaspoon celery seed

1 3/4 cups chicken broth

2/3 cup milk

For the Crust

2 C flour

pinch salt

sugar to taste (about 1/4 - 1/3 C)

1 stick butter

ice water

Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C.)
In a saucepan, combine chicken, carrots, peas, chopped broccoli, and celery. Add water to cover and boil for 15 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and set aside.
In the saucepan over medium heat, cook onions in butter until soft and translucent. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick. Remove from heat and pour over the veggies/chicken. Stir to coat well.
To make pie crust, combine flour, salt, sugar, and tablespoons of butter in a Cuisinart. Blend until butter looks like fine grains.
Slowly add ice water, a little at a time while blending, no more than 1/3 cup, until the mixture combines to make a firm dough. Divide dough ball in two, proportioned 60/40.
Flour a surface, then roll out the larger dough ball until 1/4 inch thick. Spread over the bottom of a 9" pie pan.
Place the chicken/sauce mixture in bottom pie crust.
Roll out the smaller dough ball to 1/4 inch thickness. Cover pie 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.
