Ingredients

6 servings

For the crust

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp salt
¾ cup dairy free butter, cold and cut into ½-inch cubes
5–7 tbsp ice water

For the filling

1 ½ lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into ¾-inch pieces
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
3 tbsp dairy free butter
1 medium yellow onion, finely diced
3 medium carrots, peeled and cut into ½-inch pieces
3 stalks celery, cut into ½-inch pieces
3 cloves garlic, minced
⅓ cup all-purpose flour
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup unsweetened oat milk
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (or ½ tsp dried thyme)
1 cup frozen peas

For the egg wash

1 tbsp dairy free milk
Chef's tip
Use plain, unsweetened oat milk, measured 1:1. It works well in drinks, batters, sauces, and soups; avoid it where milk sets the texture, like custards, puddings, and frozen desserts.
1 large egg

Instructions

1
Make the crust: Whisk together 2 cups flour and 1 tsp salt in a large bowl. Add the cold dairy free butter cubes and work them into the flour with your fingertips or a pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs with some pea-sized pieces remaining. Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, tossing with a fork after each addition, until the dough just holds together when pressed — you'll likely need 5–7 tablespoons. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.
2
Season the chicken pieces with 1/2 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp black pepper. Heat 1 tbsp of the dairy free butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until melted and shimmering. Add the chicken in a single layer and cook, stirring once or twice, until the pieces are opaque throughout with no pink at the center, about 6–8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
