Preparation
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, sugar, and salt. Cut in cold unsalted butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cold buttermilk; form into a ball, divide into two disks, wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- In a large skillet, melt unsalted butter over medium heat. Add diced onion, sliced carrots, sliced celery, and minced garlic; sauté for 5-7 minutes until tender. Stir in all-purpose flour, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper; cook for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Gradually add chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring continuously for about 5 minutes until thickened.
- Remove the skillet from heat and stir in shredded chicken/turkey and frozen peas. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if desired. Set aside to cool while preparing the crust.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F. Roll out one disk of dough into a 12-inch circle; place into a 9-inch pie pan. Pour chicken filling into the crust. Roll out second disk, drape over filling, seal edges, and cut slits for steam release.
- Brush the top crust with egg wash and place assembled pie on a baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes or until crust is golden brown and filling bubbles up through slits.
- Once baked, let Chicken Pot Pie cool for about 10 minutes before serving.

Notes
Chill your butter for best results; avoid overfilling to prevent leaks; allow resting time for cleaner slices.
