Instructions

Season the chicken with salt and pepper, place it in a large saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a simmer. Cook until just barely done and let cool before chopping.
In the same saucepan, add onions, celery, and butter. Cook until translucent (3-4 minutes), then stir in flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, bouillon, and celery seed. Gradually add reserved water and milk, stirring until thickened.
Add chopped chicken and frozen veggies to the mixture and adjust seasoning. Let cool.
Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
Roll out one pie dough to fit a 9-inch pie pan.
Pour cooled filling into the crust and place the second rolled dough on top. Crimp edges and cut a slit in the top.
Whisk egg with milk and brush over the crust.
Bake for 40-50 minutes until crust is golden and filling is bubbly. Cover with foil if browning too quickly.
Let cool for 15-20 minutes before slicing.

Notes

Use high-quality chicken for best results and experiment with seasonal veggies for added flavor.
