Time 1h35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 (15 ounce) package double-crust pie pastry, thawed
1 tablespoon butter
4 celery ribs with leaves, diced
2 leeks, diced
½ (10 ounce) package frozen peas
2 carrots, peeled and diced
2 red potatoes, diced
½ white onion, diced
1 (2 to 3 pound) rotisserie chicken, meat removed and shredded
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, or more if needed
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
½ teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Line a 9x13-inch casserole dish with 1 pie crust and cover with aluminum foil.
  • Bake crust in the preheated oven until golden, about 20 minutes.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; add celery, leeks, peas, carrots, potatoes, and onion. Cook and stir until onions are translucent and potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Add chicken and mix thoroughly.
  • Combine 1 cup of milk and flour in a cup. Mix well and add it to the vegetable-chicken mixture. Cook and stir, adding more flour if necessary to thicken gravy, about 5 minutes. Add remaining 1 cup milk; cook and stir until filling is thickened, about 5 minutes more. Season with black pepper, white pepper, and salt.
  • Pour filling into the baked crust. Roll out the remaining crust to the shape of the casserole dish and gently place it on top of the filling.
  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Bake in the preheated oven, checking every 10 minutes, until crust is light golden brown, about 30 minutes.
