Preheat the oven to 350°F.

In a large skillet over medium-high heat melt the butter.

Lower the heat to medium, stirring constantly add the flour to the skillet. Stir until the butter has absorbed the flour.
Continue whisking gradually adding the chicken broth. Increase the temperature and bring to a boil.
Add the half & half and immediately lower the heat to simmer. Add the poultry seasoning, garlic salt, tarragon, lemon pepper and black pepper. Mix well. Simmer for 5 minutes.
After 5 minutes, remove from the heat and mix in the chicken and vegetables. Mix well.
Unroll one pie crust and fit firmly onto the bottom and sides of the skillet. Pour the filling into the crust.
Fit the second crust on top. Fold under pressing the edges of the crusts together and pinching to seal.
Cut slits in the middle of the crust to vent. Brush with the beaten egg wash.
