Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie plate or a similar-sized oven-safe skillet.
  2. Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the flour, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the cooked chicken, peas, and corn. Pour this creamy chicken stew mixture into your prepared pie plate.
  6. Arrange the refrigerated biscuit dough pieces evenly over the top of the chicken filling. Do not overlap the biscuits too much.
  7. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling hot.
  8. Let the chicken pot pie biscuit topping cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You can use leftover rotisserie chicken to save time on cooking the chicken.
  • For a richer flavor, use half-and-half instead of milk in the sauce.
  • If you do not have refrigerated biscuits, you can use a simple drop biscuit recipe instead.
