Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup carrots, diced

  • 1 cup celery, diced

  • 1 cup frozen peas

  • 1 medium onion, chopped

  • 3 cups chicken broth

  • 1 cup whole milk

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour

  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme

  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  • Salt and black pepper to taste

  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (about 8 biscuits)


Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • In a large saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5–7 minutes until softened.

  • Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir constantly for 2–3 minutes.

  • Slowly whisk in chicken broth and milk. Stir until the sauce thickens (about 5 minutes).

  • Add shredded chicken, peas, thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Stir and simmer for 5 minutes.

  • Pour the mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread evenly.

  • Place biscuit dough pieces on top of the filling.

  • Cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • Use rotisserie chicken or leftover turkey for convenience.

  • Add corn or green beans for variety.

  • To store, refrigerate leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

  • Reheat in oven for best texture, or microwave for convenience.

  • For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and butter.
