Ingredients

Servings:6
  • 3 cups Cooked chicken breast, shredded
  • 1/2 cup Unsalted butter
  • 2 1/2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 cup Cold buttermilk
  • 2 cups Chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup Heavy cream
  • 1 1/2 cups Frozen peas and carrots mix
  • 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 to taste Salt and black pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

  2. 2

    In a large skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of butter and sauté the diced onions until translucent, then whisk in 1/2 cup of flour to create a roux.

  3. 3

    Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream, simmering until the sauce thickens into a smooth gravy.

  4. 4

    Stir in the shredded chicken, peas, carrots, thyme, salt, and pepper, then pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish.

  5. 5

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the remaining flour, baking powder, and a pinch of salt; cut in the remaining cold butter until it resembles coarse crumbs.

  6. 6

    Gently stir in the cold buttermilk until a soft dough forms, then drop large spoonfuls of dough over the chicken filling.

  7. 7

    Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.

  8. 8

    Let the pot pie rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set.
