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 ā you'll likely need 5ā7 tablespoons. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 20 minutes.

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 6ā8 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a plate and set aside.
