Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 medium yellow onion, diced
• 2 stalks celery, diced
• 2 large carrots, diced
• 0.25 cups all-purpose flour
• 3 cups chicken broth
• 0.5 cups heavy cream
• 1 cup frozen peas
• 1 teaspoon fresh thyme, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
• 2 cups biscuit mix
• 0.75 cups whole milk
• 0.5 cups cheddar cheese, shredded

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are softened.

Step 3

Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to coat.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the chicken broth until smooth. Cook for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to thicken.

Step 5

Stir in the heavy cream, diced chicken breasts (cut into bite-sized pieces), peas, thyme, salt, and black pepper. Let simmer for 3-4 minutes until the chicken is just cooked through.

Step 6

Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

Step 7

In a mixing bowl, combine the biscuit mix, milk, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until just combined to form a dough.

Step 8

Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mixture over the chicken filling, spreading it out to create a cobbler-like topping. It doesn’t need to cover the filling completely.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden and the filling is bubbling.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.
