  • ½ cup sliced celery
  • 3 tablespoons butter

  • Cook in butter over medium heat, until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in flour, salt, pepper, and celery seed. Slowly stir in chicken broth and milk. Simmer over medium-low heat until thick, about 5 minutes. Stir in parsley and remove from heat.
  • Place chicken mixture in bottom pie crust; pour hot liquid mixture over. Cover with top crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until pie is golden brown and filling is bubbly (about 30 minutes).
  • Serve and enjoy!
