Ingredients

2 cups cooked turkey, shredded
1 cup carrots, diced
1 cup peas
1 cup corn
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup milk
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
1 package refrigerated pie crusts (2 crusts)
1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Sauté Vegetables: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and carrots, and sauté until softened (about 5 minutes).
Make the Filling: Stir in flour, garlic powder, and thyme. Gradually add chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens. Add in turkey, peas, corn, salt, and pepper, mixing well.
Prepare the Crust: Roll out one pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish. Pour the turkey filling into the crust. Cover with the second pie crust, sealing the edges. Cut slits in the top crust for steam to escape. Brush the top with beaten egg.
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
Serve: Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot and enjoy!
