Make this creamy, comforting chicken stew topped with fluffy biscuits. This recipe uses refrigerated biscuit dough for a quick, weeknight-friendly meal that tastes like homestyle cooking.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, sliced
  • 2 celery stalks, sliced
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken breast
  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • 1 (10.2 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters

Instructions

  1. Melt butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until vegetables soften, about 5 minutes.
  2. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  3. Gradually whisk in chicken broth until smooth. Add thyme, pepper, and salt. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until the broth thickens slightly, about 5 to 7 minutes.
  4. Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen peas, and cream of chicken soup. Heat through until the mixture is bubbling gently.
  5. Drop the quartered biscuit pieces evenly over the top of the simmering stew. Do not stir them in.
  6. Cover the pot, reduce heat to low, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are puffed and cooked through. Check the biscuits halfway through to ensure the heat is low enough to prevent burning the bottom of the pot.
  7. Serve immediately. This is a great option for a 30 minute chicken dinner.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, use rotisserie chicken for your shredded chicken.
  • If you prefer a thicker stew, let it simmer uncovered for a few extra minutes before adding the biscuits.
  • This recipe is a simple chicken stew with fluffy topping, perfect for using up leftover chicken.
