Ingredients
- 3 cups Cooked shredded chicken
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 4 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 2 cups Chicken broth
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 2 cups Frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 8 pieces Refrigerated canned biscuits
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, whisk in the flour and stir constantly for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Step 3
Gradually whisk in the chicken broth, ensuring there are no lumps. Slowly add the milk and continue stirring until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Season the sauce with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Adjust to taste if needed.
Step 5
Add the cooked shredded chicken and frozen mixed vegetables to the sauce. Stir well to combine and allow to simmer for 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
Step 6
Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a 9x13-inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Open the canned biscuits and place them on top of the chicken mixture, spacing them slightly apart.
Step 8
Bake the dish in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and cooked through.
Step 9
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Step 10
Serve warm and enjoy!
