Drop Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Grease 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with butter, or spray with cooking spray.
• In medium bowl, stir together 1 1/2 cups flour, the baking powder and 1 teaspoon salt. Cut in butter, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture looks like coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese and buttermilk just until blended; set aside.
• In 4-quart saucepan, melt 1/4 cup of the butter over medium-high heat until sizzling. Add mushrooms; cook 4 to 5 minutes or until tender. Remove mushrooms to small bowl; reserve.
• Return saucepan to heat; melt remaining 1/4 cup butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until tender. Add 1/2 cup flour; cook and stir until flour is golden brown.
• Slowly beat in broth with whisk. Add potatoes and carrots; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened.
• Reduce heat to medium; stir in chicken, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and the pepper. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until warmed through and potatoes are slightly tender. Stir in peas, cream and reserved mushrooms.
• Pour chicken mixture into baking dish. Immediately drop biscuit dough by 12 heaping spoonfuls (about 1/4-cup each) onto hot mixture. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Cool 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Butter a 2-quart casserole dish.
• In a large saucepan, saute chopped onion in the butter. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken broth and milk. Heat to boiling, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium and cook and stir for 2 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper. Add frozen peas and carrots and cooked chicken. Pour into prepared casserole dish.
• In a medium bowl, mix together 2 cups flour, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Cut in shortening until mixture is crumbly. Stir in milk just until dough is moistened, then drop by spoonfuls onto chicken mixture.
• Bake at 450 degrees F (230 degrees C) for 12 to 15 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown, and cooked on the bottom. This tends to bubble over so I place a piece of aluminum foil under the pan to catch the drips.
