    Source of Recipe


    PEGGY

    List of Ingredients





    3 med chicken breasts (or turkey), cooked and cubed
    1/4 cup butter
    1/3 cup flour
    1 small onion, chopped
    1/4 tsp. pepper
    1 1/2 cups chicken broth
    1/2 cup milk
    12-ounce package frozen mixed vegetables, cooked
    1/4 cup chicken gravy (optional)
    2 regrigerated pie crusts


    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Take out pie crusts to get to room temperature. In saucepan, simmer butter and onion till soft. Stir in flour and pepper, and cook till bubbly. Slowly stir in broth and milk,
    a little at a time... heat to boil, stirring constantly.
    Boil 1 minute. Add chicken, veggies, and gravy. Unroll
    1st pie crust, cut into 4 pieces sections, then cover
    bottom of a 9x13 baking dish. Spoon chicken filling over
    crust. Unroll 2nd crust and slice into 3/4" strips.
    Lay 1/2 of the strips on a diagonal in one direction
    about 1/2" apart and longest strips in the middle. Lay
    the other 1/2 of the strips in the other direction to
    cover creating a lattice effect like a pie. Bake on a
    cookie sheet 40-45 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
    Let stand apx 10 minutes before serving.

    * You could also just lay the entire top crust over
    filling in one piece and just cut several slits in the
    top. Or, if using 2 frozen round pie crusts with tin
    fill first one, then invert the 2nd one to cover and
    remove tin. Press together to seal and cut several slits
    in the top to vent.
