Instructions
- Preheat oven: Preheat oven to 220°C / 425°F.
- Cook chicken and vegetables: Combine chicken, carrots, peas, and celery in a saucepan. Cover with water, bring to a boil, and cook for 15 minutes; drain and set aside.
- Prepare sauce: In another saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed, mixing well.
- Add liquids: Gradually stir in chicken broth and milk. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until thickened, about 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat.
- Assemble pie: Place the chicken and vegetables in the bottom pie crust. Pour the hot broth mixture over the top.
- Add top crust: Cover with the top crust, sealing edges and trimming excess. Make several small slits in the top to allow steam to escape.
- Bake and cool: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the pastry is golden and filling is bubbly. Let cool for 10 minutes before serving.
