How to Make Chicken Pot Pie

  1. **Make the Pastry:**
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour and 1 tsp salt.
  3. Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter, using a pastry blender or your fingers, until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  4. Gradually add ½ cup ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing lightly until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix.
  5. Divide the dough in half. For individual pie shells, roll out each half and place in 9-inch pie plates. For a 9x13 inch pan version, proceed to step 15.
  6. **Make the Filling:**
  7. Melt 2 tbsp butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 2 stalks celery (chopped) and 1 medium onion (chopped) and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
  8. Stir in 2 tbsp all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute.
  9. Gradually whisk in 3 cups chicken broth and 2 bouillon cubes until smooth.
  10. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  11. Stir in 2 cups cooked chicken (cubed), 1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn), and ½ tsp salt and pepper to taste.
  12. **Assemble and Bake:**
  13. **For individual pie shells:** Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the prepared pie shells. Top with the remaining pie crust. Cut slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  14. **For 9x13 inch pan:** Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan. Roll out the remaining pie dough and place it over the top.
  15. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  16. **Optional:** For easy make-ahead meals, bake a pie or individual pies, cool completely, and then freeze for later.
