  • Combine chicken, carrots, peas, and celery in a pot; pour in enough water to cover. Bring to a boil and cook until chicken is cooked through and vegetables are tender, about 15 minutes. Drain water and set chicken and vegetables mixture aside.

  • Melt butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir onion in hot butter until soft and translucent, 7 to 10 minutes. Stir flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed into onion mixture until well-combined. Slowly stir chicken broth, celery soup, and milk into onion mixture; bring to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until mixture is thick, 5 to 10 minutes.

  • Spread chicken mixture in the bottom of the prepared pie crust. Pour hot onion mixture over chicken mixture. Lay remaining pie crust over the top, trim excess dough, and seal the edges. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.

  • Bake in the preheated oven until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly, 30 to 35 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Maria this was very easy and delish thank you for Sharing! I didn't have celery seed so I used celery flakes and doubled the amount. I also cut the amount of peas carrots and chicken in half and still made 2 Pies that were filled to the top I used my grandma's Pyrex Pies dishes so that may be the reason it seemed I had so much. I added a little over 1/2 cup of Ora Ida steamer potatoes to the bottom of the pie before the cooked ingredients because I love potatoes. My family loved it and we all had seconds. There's no doubt l will make this for many years to come. Thanks again for sharing.

I made slightly less filling than suggested and less chicken stock for a creamier texture. Used fresh herbs while sauteing the veggies - turned out delicious!

VERY GOOD. USED CAMBELL'S SOUP. ADDED MUSHROOMS AND PEARL ONIONS. USED ROLL-OUT Pillsbury Pie Crusts from the refrigerator section. A little light on salt and added more pepper.

This recipe is so good. It's basic without added seasoning to change how a pot pie is supposed to taste! Delicious!

Great comfort food recipe! I had a package of refrigerated pie dough that needed to be used so I cut a few corners and bought a rotisserie chicken at a local Club store and a steam in the bag package of mixed frozen veggies. I used to chicken breast only cutting into bite-size pieces and steaming the vegetables according to the package directions. I followed the recipe for the gravy as directed although I did not have celery seed and used some dried thyme. As directed I put the chicken and veggies into the crust that was placed in a deep dish pie pan then poured the gravy over it which created overflow in the pan. next time I'll mix the gravy and chicken together before pouring into the pie shell. this recipe is definitely a keeper!
