Biscuit Topped Chicken Pot Pie

Using biscuits instead of a pie crust offers a nice change of pace. The recipe comes together quickly and portions are easier to serve.
Course: Middles
Cuisine: American

Ingredients

Filling:

  • 1 Tbs. Avocado Oil
  • 1 cup Chopped Yellow Onion
  • 1 cup Chopped Carrots
  • 1/2 cup Chopped Celery, chop fine
  • 2 cloves Garlc, minced
  • 1/4 cup All-purpose Flour
  • Pinch Kosher Salt
  • Pinch Fresh Ground Pepper
  • 4 cups Low Salt Chicken Broth
  • 2 cups Shredded Chicken i use a store bought rotisserie chicken.
  • 1 cup Frozen, or fresh, peas
  • 2 tsp. Poultry Seasoning

Biscuits:

  • 2-1/2 cups Bisquick
  • 2/3 cup Whole Milk
  • 2 Tbs. Salted Butter, melted

Instructions

Filling:

  • Preheat oven to 425°.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet, over a medium heat. I like to use a cast iron. Make sure it is oven safe!
    Add onion, carrots and celery to pan and sautés out 4 minutes. You are looking to soften the veggies.
    Add garlic and continue cooking.
    Stir in flour, salt and pepper and stir to coat vegetables with flour.
  • Stir in stock and bring to a boil.
    Reduce heat a little and simmer for 5-10 minutes, whisking ocassionally.
    Stir in shredded chicken and peas and let cook another 5 minutes.
    Stir in poultry seasoning and taste to adjust flavor.
    *You can use fresh herbs like thyme, oregano and parsley here. I would stay away from Rosemary since it is so strong.

Biscuits:

  • Combine bisquick and milk until a soft dough forms.
    Turn our onto a lightly floured surface. Press with hands or roll out to 1/2” thick. Cut into 2” biscuits
    Tip: If you are using a biscuit cutter do not twist, come straight back up. This will give you a thicker biscuit.
    This should make about 8 biscuits. Layer the biscuits on top of the filling and brush each with melted butter.
  • Bake at 425° For 35 minutes. Biscuits should be golden brown and cooked through.
    Keep a eye on biscuits. If they get too brown, lightly cover with foil to finish baking.
    Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
