How to Make Chicken Pot Pie With Cheese Biscuit Top

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add 1 chopped onion and 2 carrots, diced, and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add 1 lb cooked chicken, cut into bite-sized pieces, to the skillet. Stir in 1/2 cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute.
  4. Gradually whisk in 3 cups of chicken broth, ensuring no lumps form. Stir in 1 cup of frozen peas and 1/2 cup of chopped celery.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in 1/2 cup heavy cream and 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese.
  7. Pour the chicken mixture into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
  8. For the biscuit topping: In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese.
  9. Cut in 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  10. Gradually add 3/4 cup of milk, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  11. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the chicken mixture in the baking dish.
  12. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  13. Let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!
