Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions, sliced carrots, and chopped celery; sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender and onions are translucent.
  3. Sprinkle in all-purpose flour, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
  4. Gradually pour in chicken broth and milk, whisking until thickened, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Stir in shredded chicken and frozen peas; season with salt, black pepper, and celery seed. Remove from heat and cool slightly.
  6. Fit the bottom pie crust into the pie dish, pour in the chicken filling, and cover with the top crust sealing the edges. Cut slits in the top for steam to escape.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Let the pie cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
