Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Melt the butter in a medium size skillet. Add the diced chicken and onion to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat until chicken is browned and onion is tender. Stir often.
  3. While the chicken and onions are cooking, in a 3 quart pot - combine the potatoes, celery, mixed vegetables, chicken broth, cream of mushroom soup, salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and parsley.
  4. Bring mixture to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer. Cover and allow to continue simmering for 15 minutes, or until vegetables are tender.
  5. Once vegetables are tender, mix the cornstarch and water and stir until smooth. Add to the simmering mixture and stir until smooth and creamy. Mixture will begin thickening.
  6. Add the cooked chicken and onions and stir to combine.
  7. Add the shredded cheese.

  10. Spoon, or pour, the chicken and vegetable mixture into the dish.
  11. Place the remaining pastry over the top of the mixture. Tuck the edge of the top pastry down and crimp with bottom pastry to form a seal.
  12. Cut 4 slits in the top of the pastry to allow for venting.
