This chicken biscuit pie is a favorite of my family. I double the recipe because I have hungry teenagers! Make your own biscuits or use premade refrigerated biscuits.
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 ½ cups chicken broth
- ¾ cup milk
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup frozen green peas
- 1 cup frozen diced carrots
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken meat
- 2 ½ teaspoons baking powder
- 5 tablespoons shortening
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole dish.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, saut? chopped onion in butter. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken broth and milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium and cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Add frozen peas and carrots and cooked chicken. Pour mixture into the prepared casserole dish.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, mix together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly. Stir in milk just until dough is moistened, then drop by spoonfuls onto chicken mixture.
Step 4
Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown, and cooked on bottom. This tends to bubble over so I place a piece of aluminum foil under the pan to catch drips.
