Ingredients:
For the Filling:
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 medium carrots, sliced
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 1 cup milk
- 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded

For the Biscuits:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold butter, cubed
- 3/4 cup milk
Directions:
For the Filling:
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the carrots and celery and cook until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir well to combine. Cook for another minute to eliminate the raw flour taste.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
- Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook until it thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen peas, dried thyme, dried parsley, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until everything is well combined and heated through.
- Pour the filling into a 9×13 inch baking dish.
For the Biscuits:
- In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Gradually add the milk, stirring just until the dough comes together.
- Drop the biscuit dough by spoonfuls onto the chicken filling in the baking dish, spacing them evenly.
To Bake:
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
