In this article, we'll show you how to make chicken pot pie with biscuits in a crockpot.
Ingredients
For the filling, you'll need:
- 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs, cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup chopped carrots
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 cups chicken broth
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup frozen peas
For the biscuits, you'll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 6 tablespoons cold butter, cut into small pieces
- 3/4 cup buttermilk
Instructions
Step 1: Make the filling
In a crockpot, combine the chicken, onion, carrots, celery, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Pour the chicken broth over the top and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender.
Step 2: Make the biscuits
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add the cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the buttermilk and stir until just combined.
Step 3: Assemble the pot pie
In a small bowl, whisk together the flour and heavy cream until smooth. Stir the mixture into the crockpot and add the frozen peas. Cover and cook on high for an additional 30 minutes, until the sauce has thickened.
Drop the biscuit dough by spoonfuls on top of the filling in the crockpot. Cover and cook on high for 1 hour, until the biscuits are cooked through and golden brown.
