Make the crust: Whisk together the gluten free flour blend, xanthan gum, and salt in a large bowl. Add the cold 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 butter pieces remaining. Drizzle in ice water 1 tablespoon at a time, stirring with a fork after each addition, until the dough just comes together and holds when pressed — it will feel slightly drier than a wheat-flour dough. Divide the dough in half, flatten each half into a disk, wrap in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
While the dough chills, poach the chicken: Place the chicken in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water by 1 inch. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat and cook until the chicken reaches 165°F (74°C) on an instant-read thermometer at the thickest part, about 15–18 minutes. Transfer the chicken to a cutting board, let it rest for 5 minutes, then shred or chop into bite-sized pieces. Discard the poaching liquid.
