Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 2.5 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.75 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 0.5 cup ice water

Filling

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 0.5 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 1 cup chopped carrots
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 0.5 cup frozen peas
  • 0.5 cup frozen corn
  • 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2.5 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 3 cups cooked shredded turkey
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoon dried thyme

Instructions
 

Crust Preparation

  • In a large bowl, whisk together flour and salt. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender or your fingertips until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Gradually add ice water, 1 tablespoon at a time, mixing until dough just comes together. Divide dough in half, flatten into discs, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Filling Preparation

  • Melt butter in a large skillet or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery and cook until softened, about 8-10 minutes.
  • Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk until smooth. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened.
  • Stir in peas, corn, shredded turkey, salt, pepper, and thyme. Cook for 2-3 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat.

Assembly and Baking

  • Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one disc of dough into a 12-inch circle. Carefully place it into a 9-inch pie plate.
  • Pour the turkey filling into the pie crust.
  • Roll out the second disc of dough. Place it over the filling. Trim and crimp the edges to seal. Cut several slits in the top crust to allow steam to escape.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, then reduce oven temperature to 375°F (190°C) and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until crust is golden brown and filling is bubbly.
  • Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Notes

For an egg wash, whisk one egg with one tablespoon of water and brush over the top crust before baking for a glossy finish.
