Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 cup diced yellow onion
- 1 cup diced carrots
- 1 cup frozen green peas
- 1 cup diced celery
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 cups cooked chicken, diced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, grated
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- In a large oven-safe skillet, melt 2 tablespoons unsalted butter over medium heat. Add diced yellow onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until vegetables are slightly tender.
- Stir in dried thyme and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and cook for 1 minute more. Sprinkle in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to create a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups chicken broth and 1 cup whole milk until the sauce is smooth and thickened. Bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low.
- Stir in 3 cups diced cooked chicken, 1 cup frozen green peas, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Mix well and remove the skillet from heat.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Add 1/2 cup grated cold unsalted butter to the flour mixture. Using your fingertips or a pastry blender, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Pour in 3/4 cup buttermilk and mix gently with a spoon until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese.
- Drop 8-10 spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly over the hot chicken pot pie filling in the skillet.
- Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- In a small bowl, combine 2 tablespoons melted unsalted butter and 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley.
- Once the pot pie is out of the oven, brush the tops of the hot biscuits with the melted butter and parsley mixture. Serve immediately.
