Ingredients

  • 3 cups frozen mixed vegetables (about 16 ounces), thawed
  • 2-1/4 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 cup frozen pearl onions, thawed
  • 1 jar (4-1/2 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) chicken broth
  • 2 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
  • Dough for single-crust pie

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 450°. In a greased deep 2-1/2-qt. baking dish, combine first four ingredients.
  2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and thyme until blended; gradually whisk in broth and bouillon. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes. Pour over vegetable mixture.
  3. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to fit top of dish; place over filling. Trim and flute edge. Cut slits in top.
  4. Bake until golden brown and filling is heated through, 18-20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
Dough for single-crust pie
Combine 1-1/4 cups all-purpose flour and 1/4 tsp. salt; cut in 1/2 cup cold butter until crumbly. Gradually add 3-5 Tbsp. ice water, tossing with a fork until dough holds together when pressed. Shape into a disk; wrap and refrigerate 1 hour.
