Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large oven-safe skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for about 3 minutes until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds.
- Sprinkle in the flour and stir constantly for 1 minute to form a roux.
- Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk, stirring until smooth. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3–5 minutes until the sauce thickens.
- Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the cooked chicken, peas and carrots, and corn. Mix until well combined and heated through.
- Remove the skillet from heat. Arrange the uncooked biscuits on top of the filling.
- Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake uncovered for 20–25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
- Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Variations :
- Cheesy Version: Stir ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese into the filling before baking.
- Herb Topping: Sprinkle biscuits with dried thyme, rosemary, or parsley for an herby finish.
- Spicy Kick: Add a pinch of cayenne or red pepper flakes to the filling for a little heat.
- Turkey Swap: Use leftover roasted turkey for a post-holiday variation.
Tips :
- Brush biscuit tops with melted butter and a sprinkle of garlic powder or chopped parsley before baking for an extra golden, flavorful crust.
- Use rotisserie chicken or leftover roasted chicken to save time and add depth of flavor.
- Don’t skip the rest time—it helps the sauce set slightly, making for cleaner servings.
- For extra crispness, bake the biscuits separately and place them on the filling just before serving.
