Ingredients
- 2 pounds boneless skinless chicken breasts cut into 1-inch pieces
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup yellow onion chopped
- 2 talks celery chopped
- 2 carrots chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- ½ teaspoon poultry seasoning
- 2 teaspoons dried thyme
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ cups chicken stock
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 16.3 ounce can refrigerated biscuits
- 1 egg
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons butter melted
- fresh thyme for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray the inside of a 9-inch x 13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
- Place chicken in a mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, being sure every piece is well seasoned.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken to the pan and cook for 5-8 minutes or until no longer pink. Transfer the cooked chicken to a bowl with all the juices and seasonings; set aside.
- Add butter to the same skillet and melt over medium heat. Add the onion, celery, carrots, and garlic. Cook until transparent and tender about 3- 5 minutes. Add the salt, pepper, poultry seasoning, and thyme, and mix. Cook for 2 more minutes.
- Add flour to the onion mixture and mix to coat. Whisk in milk and chicken stock until well blended. Continue whisking until it comes to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and allow the mixture to thicken and reduce, about 2 minutes.
- Add chicken and its juices to the skillet, along with the peas, and mix well. Remove from heat.
- Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish. Top mixture with biscuits, placing them evenly on top. In a small bowl, beat together egg and water. Brush egg mixture on top of the biscuits.
- Bake casserole for 20 minutes or until mixture is bubbling and the top of the biscuits are golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Brush melted butter on top of the biscuits and allow it to cool for another 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with fresh thyme leaves, if desired.
