Directions

Chicken Pot Pie Filling

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 ° F. Set aside a 8 x 12 baking dish.
  2. In a medium-large pot on medium-high heat, melt butter. Add in onions, celery and carrots and cook until softened, about 15 minutes stirring occasionally.
  3. Add frozen peas, parsley and flour into pot and combine until flour is fully coating vegetables.
  4. Cook flour for 2 minutes then add chicken stock and half and half and cook until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add in chicken and season with salt and pepper. Remove pot from heat and carefully transfer chicken mixture into the baking dish and set aside while preparing biscuits.

Biscuits

  1. In a small-medium bowl combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar and salt.
  2. Add in the butter and combine butter with your hands into the flour mixture until it resembles a course meal.
  3. Add in red peppers and ½ cup of cheese and gently combine. Pour in the buttermilk and combine using a spatula.
  4. Divide the dough into 6 equal amounts and drop dough evenly on top of the pot pie.
  5. Sprinkle remaining cheese on top of the biscuits evenly and bake for 25-28 minutes, or until biscuits are cooked though and chicken mixture in bubbling.
  6. Remove from oven and serve hot!
