  • 2 medium carrots, diced
  • 2 stalks celery, diced
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth (low-sodium)
  • 1 cup whole milk
  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 cup diced cooked potatoes (e.g., Yukon Gold)
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp dried sage
  • 1/2 tsp salt (or to taste)
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper (or to taste)
  • For the Biscuits:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 cup cold buttermilk
  • For Brushing:
  • 2 tbsp melted unsalted butter
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

  • 1. Prepare the Pot Pie Filling: In a large Dutch oven or deep skillet, melt 3 tbsp butter over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery; sauté 5-7 minutes until softened. Stir in 1/4 cup flour, cook 1 minute. Gradually whisk in chicken broth, then milk, stirring until thickened. Add chicken, peas, potatoes, thyme, sage, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp pepper. Simmer 5-7 minutes. Transfer to a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  • 2. Make the Garlic Cheddar Biscuits: In a large bowl, whisk 2 cups flour, baking powder, 1 tsp garlic powder, and 1/2 tsp salt. Cut in 6 tbsp cold butter until coarse crumbs form. Stir in cheddar cheese. Gradually add buttermilk, stirring until just combined to form a shaggy dough. Do not overmix.
  • 3. Shape and Top the Biscuits: Lightly flour a surface. Pat or roll dough to 1/2-inch thickness. Cut out 10-12 biscuits using a 2-inch cutter. Arrange biscuits over the pot pie filling.
  • 4. Bake to Golden Perfection: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake for 25-30 minutes, until biscuits are golden brown and filling is bubbly. While baking, melt 2 tbsp butter and stir in 1/2 tsp garlic powder. Immediately brush garlic butter over hot biscuits. Rest 5-10 minutes before serving.
