In a large skillet over medium heat, add the chicken, carrots, celery, peas, mushrooms, garlic, and green onion. Cook for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. Add the parsley, heavy cream, chicken broth, pepper, thyme, and rosemary. Simmer over low heat for 10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.
Remove the dough from the refrigerator and roll it out on a lightly floured surface. Place the dough into a 9-inch pie dish and pour the chicken and vegetables into the dish. Top with the remaining dough. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the crust is golden brown.
