Prepare the Crust:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Combine flour and salt in a large bowl.<\/li>\n<li>Add chilled, diced butter and blend using a pastry cutter or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.<\/li>\n<li>Gradually add ice water, one tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork until the dough holds together without being sticky. <\/li>\n<li>Divide the dough into two balls, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>2. Cook the Chicken:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Preheat your oven to 425\u00b0F (220\u00b0C).<\/li>\n<li>Season the cubed chicken with salt and pepper.<\/li>\n<li>Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove chicken from the skillet and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>3. Prepare the Filling:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>In the same skillet, add carrots, peas, celery, and onion. Cook until they are tender, about 5 minutes.<\/li>\n<li>In a separate saucepan, melt 1\/3 cup butter over medium heat. Stir in 1\/3 cup flour, salt, pepper, thyme, and garlic powder to form a paste-like mixture. Cook for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.<\/li>\n<li>Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk, and cook until it thickens and bubbles.<\/li>\n<li>Add the chicken and vegetable mixture to the sauce, and stir together. Remove from heat and set aside.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>4. Assemble the Pie:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Roll out one pastry ball on a lightly floured surface to fit your 9-inch pie pan. Place the crust in the pan, and fill with the chicken mixture.<\/li>\n<li>Roll out the second pastry ball and cover the pie with this top crust. Seal the edges with a fork or by crimping, and cut several slits on the top to allow steam to escape.<\/li>\n<li>Place the pot pie on a baking sheet to catch any overflow, and bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h4>Recipe Summary<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Total Preparation Time<\/strong>: Approximately 1 hour 30 minutes <br \/>\n<strong>Calories per Serving<\/strong>: Approximately 520<\/p>\n<p>This homemade chicken pot pie is not only satisfying but it&#8217;s also packed with nutrients.
