Equipment

  • cast iron skillet

Ingredients
  

For the Filling

  • 2 cups Shredded Cooked Chicken Leftover rotisserie chicken works well.
  • 1 cup Whole Milk Substitute with half-and-half or oat milk for a lighter version.
  • 2 cups Chicken Broth Use high-quality broth for better flavor.
  • 1 cup Frozen Peas and Carrots Can substitute with green beans or corn.

For the Biscuit Topping

  • 2 cups All-Purpose Flour Consider using gluten-free flour if preferred.
  • 1 tbsp Baking Powder Check expiration to ensure effectiveness.
  • 1 cup Cheddar Cheese Substitutes like Monterey Jack can be used.
  • 1/2 cup Butter Use unsalted for better control over salt levels.
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder Add fresh garlic for a stronger flavor if desired.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Combine shredded cooked chicken, frozen peas and carrots, and chicken broth in a cast iron skillet. Stir well and heat over medium until everything is warmed through, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Simmer the mixture gently, letting it bubble for a few minutes until the broth thickens slightly and becomes creamy.
  • Prepare the biscuit dough in a separate bowl by mixing the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, butter, and cheddar cheese. Use your fingers to blend until it resembles coarse crumbs.
  • Spoon the biscuit mixture evenly over the chicken filling.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown.
  • Serve straight from the skillet for a rustic presentation.

Notes

Drizzle melted butter over the biscuits before serving for an extra-rich flavor. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
