Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 medium yellow onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, diced
  • 2 celery stalks, diced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas
  • 1/2 cup frozen corn
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 (10.2 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a 9×13 inch baking dish.
  2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until the vegetables soften, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  3. Stir in the flour to coat the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  4. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth until the mixture is smooth. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring until it thickens.
  5. Stir in the heavy cream, cooked chicken, frozen peas, frozen corn, thyme, salt, and pepper. Cook until heated through, about 3 minutes.
  6. Pour the creamy chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  7. Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough and arrange the biscuits on top of the filling, leaving small gaps between them.
  8. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. Let the casserole cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, substitute half of the heavy cream with half-and-half.
  • You can prepare the filling mixture a day ahead and store it in the refrigerator. Add the biscuits just before baking.
  • If you do not have canned biscuits, you can use a simple homemade drop biscuit topping instead.
