Time 57m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half
⅓ cup butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup peeled and chopped carrots
1 cup chopped celery
½ cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
4 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken
½ cup frozen peas (not thawed)
2 cups Bisquick
⅔-¾ cup cold buttermilk (or sub with regular milk)
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
¼ teaspoon dried parsley
2 tablespoons butter, melted
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 2 ½ - 3-quart casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth and half-and-half. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot and celery; sauté for 10 minutes. Add flour and continue cooking and stirring for 1 more minute. Reduce heat to medium and gradually stir in the chicken broth mixture.
  • Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring regularly, until thick and bubbly (about 5-6 minutes). Make sure that the mixture doesn't boil. Stir in the salt and pepper. Add chicken and frozen peas.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for about 10 minutes while you prepare the biscuit dough.
  • Use a fork to stir together the Bisquick mix, buttermilk, cheese and parsley until a soft dough forms.
  • Remove the chicken mixture from the oven, take off the cover, and give the filling a stir. Use a large scoop to drop about ¼-cup of the biscuit dough at a time onto the hot chicken mixture. You should have about 8 biscuits on top of the dish.
  • Return dish to the oven and bake, uncovered, for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in a biscuit comes out clean.
  • Stir together melted butter and garlic powder; brush over warm biscuits and serve.
