Ingredients
  

  • Cooked chicken: 3 cups shredded or cubed.
  • Butter: 4 tablespoons half a stick.
  • All-purpose flour: 1/4 cup.
  • Chicken broth: 2 cups.
  • Whole milk: 1 cup.
  • Heavy cream: 1/2 cup.
  • Carrots: 2 medium finely diced.
  • Celery: 2 stalks finely diced.
  • Onion: 1 small finely diced.
  • Frozen peas: 1/2 cup.
  • Salt: 1 teaspoon to taste.
  • Black pepper: 1/2 teaspoon.
  • Fresh parsley: 2 tablespoons chopped.
  • Prepared biscuits: 8 to 10 large biscuits.

Instructions
 

Bake the Biscuits

  • Preheat your oven as per biscuit package instructions. Place biscuits on a baking sheet. Bake until they are golden brown. Set them aside and keep them warm.

Sauté the Vegetables

  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions, carrots, and celery. Cook until they are soft. This usually takes about five minutes.

Make the Roux

  • Sprinkle the flour over the cooked vegetables. Stir well to coat everything. Cook for two minutes to remove flour taste. Do not let it burn.

Add the Liquids

  • Slowly pour in the chicken broth. Whisk constantly to avoid lumps. Add the milk and heavy cream. Continue stirring until the sauce thickens.

Mix in Chicken and Peas

  • Stir in the cooked chicken and frozen peas. Let the mixture simmer for five minutes. The peas should be tender and bright.

Season the Dish

  • Add salt, pepper, and fresh parsley. Taste the sauce to check the flavor. Adjust seasoning if you need more salt.

Assemble and Serve

  • Split the warm biscuits in half. Place them on a plate. Ladle the hot chicken mixture over the biscuits. Serve it immediately while hot.

Notes

  • Use a rotisserie chicken to save time.
  • It adds great flavor to the sauce.
  • Do not skip the heavy cream.
  • It makes the sauce extra velvety.
  • Cut your vegetables into very small pieces.
  • This ensures they cook evenly and quickly.
  • Always whisk the liquid in slowly.
  • This prevents the flour from clumping up.
  • You can use homemade biscuits for better taste.
  • Store-bought refrigerated biscuits also work very well.
  • Add a pinch of thyme for extra aroma.
  • Always serve this dish fresh and hot.
