Method
Whisk together the 1/3 cup flour, the salt and pepper in medium bowl. Toss chicken chunks in mixture to coat, and spoon all into a crock pot with removable liner. Add carrots, potatoes, onions, garlic and thyme. Pour on the 2 cups of broth and the sherry, then stir. Cook on low about 8-9 hours or high about 4 1/2 hours. Turn heat to high, if necessary; add celery soup and peas then stir. Mix remaining 1/4 cup flour with remaining 1/2 cup broth and stir into pot. Cook 15 minutes more or until thickened. Meanwhile, remove pie crust from refrigerator; preheat oven to 400 degrees. Sprinkle dried herbs over crust and press in or roll gently. Carefully place crust over filling in crock and remove crock liner to the preheated oven. Bake, uncovered, until crust is golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. If you have an oval-shaped crock, roll the middle of the crust to elongate. If you have a crockpot without a removeable liner, substitute a cup of broken "townhouse-style" crackers for the refrigerated crust. Sprinkle them on top and cook the crockpot uncovered for last 15 minutes instead.
Notes: I have included a version for those without a removable crock. For a fancier look, you may brush the crust with an egg wash before baking.
