Ingredients
3 cups cooked shredded chicken
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen carrots
1/2 cup frozen corn
1/3 cup butter
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 1/2 cups chicken broth
1 cup whole milk
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika (optional)
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
6 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 cup milk or buttermilk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Instructions
1. In a large skillet over medium heat, melt butter and cook onion for 2–3 minutes. Add garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
2. Stir in flour and whisk to make a roux. Slowly add broth, whisking to avoid lumps, then add milk. Stir until thickened, about 5–7 minutes.
3. Season with salt, pepper, thyme, onion powder, and paprika. Stir in shredded chicken, peas, carrots, and corn. Simmer for a few minutes, then pour into a greased 9×13 dish.
4. In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Cut in butter until crumbly. Stir in milk and cheese just until combined.
5. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over filling and gently spread. Leave some gaps for steam to escape.
6. Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25–30 minutes, until the biscuit topping is golden and cooked through. Broil briefly if needed.
7. Let rest 5–10 minutes before serving for best texture.
8. Serve warm and enjoy the comfort!
Notes
Use rotisserie chicken to save time and add more flavor to the filling.
Avoid overmixing the biscuit dough for a fluffy texture.
Add shredded cheddar or herbs to the biscuit topping for extra taste.
