Ingredients

  • 1 box refrigerated pie crusts (2 per box)
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 3/4 cups chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 1 rotisserie chicken skin removed and meat chopped into small pieces
  • 1 small onion chopped
  • 2 whole carrots peeled and chopped
  • 3 celery stalks chopped

Instructions

  • Heat oven to 450 degrees F.
  • Remove skin from chicken and discard. Remove meat and chop into small pieces. Set aside.
  • In large saucepan melt butter over medium heat.
  • Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Stir in flour, salt and pepper until well blended.
  • Gradually stir in chicken broth and cream, cooking and stirring until bubbly and thickened.
  • Remove from the heat.
  • Line a pie pan with one pie crust and pour in the chicken pieces.
  • Pour hot creamy mixture on top of the chicken.
  • Top with second crust; seal edge anbd flute sides. Cut slits in several places in the top crust to let steam out.
