Chicken Pot Pie

This homemade favorite is a wonderfully warm, hearty dish to have on a cold winter evening.

Ingredients:

- 2 refrigerated pie crusts (or make your own pie crusts)
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1/3 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
- 2/3 cup milk
- 2 1/2 to 3 cups shredded cooked chicken
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables

Directions:

Preheat oven to 425 degrees.

Prepare pie crust for use as directed on package. Use 1 pie crust to line a pie pan.

Melt butter on medium heat. Add onion and cook for 2 minutes. Add flour, salt, and pepper; stir until blended. Add chicken broth and milk; cook until bubbly and thickened. Add chicken and mixed vegetables. Mix well.

Remove from heat and spoon into crust-lined pie pan. Top with second crust, seal edges, and cut slits in top to vent.

Bake for 30-40 minutes. Let stand for 5 minutes before serving.
