Prep Time

Ingredients
For the crust, you will need: 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 6 tablespoons cold butter, 2-3 tablespoons ice water. For the filling, you will need: 1 tablespoon butter, 1/2 cup onion, diced, 1 cup carrots, diced, 1/2 cup celery, diced, 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon dried basil, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 cup chicken broth, 1/4 cup flour, 1/2 cup frozen peas, 1/2 cup frozen corn, 1/2 cup cooked chicken or turkey, salt and pepper to taste.
Instructions
To prepare the crust, mix the flour and salt in a bowl. Cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the water and mix until the dough just comes together. Place the dough on a lightly floured surface and roll it out to a 12-inch round. Place the dough in a 9-inch pie plate and press it into the edges. Crimp the edges and pre-bake the crust for 15 minutes at 375°F. Set aside to cool.
To make the filling, melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in the thyme, oregano, basil, and garlic powder. Add the broth and flour, and cook until the mixture thickens, stirring constantly. Add the peas, corn, and chicken, and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour the filling into the pre-baked pie crust and bake for 25 minutes at 375°F. Let the pie cool for about 10 minutes before serving.
