Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
- In a medium-sized skillet over medium heat, melt 1/4 cup of unsalted butter until bubbly. Add 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour to the skillet, whisking continuously for about 1 minute to form a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup of chicken broth and 1 cup of milk into the roux. Continue whisking for 3-5 minutes until the mixture thickens and bubbles softly.
- Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme to the sauce. Stir well to combine.
- Incorporate 2 cups of cooked, shredded chicken and 1 cup of frozen mixed vegetables into the thickened sauce.
- Roll out a pre-made pie crust to fit a 9-inch pie dish, placing the crust in the dish and trimming any excess.
- Pour the savory chicken mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading the filling evenly.
- Carefully lay another crust over the filled pie, crimping the edges to seal it well. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
- Place the assembled pot pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown.
- Once baked, remove the pot pie from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5-10 minutes.

Notes
Pair your pot pie with a refreshing side salad for a complete meal experience. Make sure your chicken is cooked and shredded beforehand to save time.
