PREPARATION:

1.- Cut chicken into 1 inch squares. Fill a stock pot with 4 cups of water and boil the ckicken along with the celery, carrots and onion -you may cook the chicken and veggies as if you were making soup- flavor with bouillon, pepper and garlic. When thoroughly cooked drain and set aside the veggies and chicken.

2.- Take out pie crusts from freezer and leave one upside down to defrost on top of wax paper. Open can of cream of chicken and pour half of the content onto the pie crust that is still in its tin pan, then place half the veggies and chicken in it. Repeat the layvering of veggies/chicken and cream of chicken.
