🍗🥕 Ingredients

For the Filling

• 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded

• 3 tablespoons butter

• 1 small onion, diced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 carrots, sliced

• 2 celery stalks, chopped

• 1 cup frozen peas

• ⅓ cup all-purpose flour

• 2 cups chicken broth

• 1 cup heavy cream

• 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning

• ½ teaspoon thyme

• ½ teaspoon black pepper

• Salt to taste

🧀 Cheddar Herb Biscuit Topping

• 2 cups biscuit baking mix

• ⅔ cup milk

• 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

• 1 teaspoon dried parsley

• 2 tablespoons melted butter

🔥 Chuckwagon Cooking Instructions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F.

Step 2

In a large cast iron skillet or Dutch oven, melt the butter over medium heat.

Add the onion, garlic, carrots, and celery. Cook for 5–6 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

Step 3

Sprinkle the flour over the vegetables and stir for 1 minute.

Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream until smooth.

Step 4

Add the chicken, peas, poultry seasoning, thyme, salt, and pepper.

Simmer for 8–10 minutes, until thick and creamy.

Step 5

In a separate bowl, mix the biscuit mix, milk, cheddar cheese, and parsley.

Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough evenly across the top of the chicken mixture.

Brush the tops with melted butter.

Step 6

Bake for 25–30 minutes, until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.

Allow to cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.

• 🌽 Buttered sweet corn

• 🫛 Green beans with bacon

• 🥖 Warm homemade rolls

⭐ Chuckwagon Tip

For an extra-rich flavor, use a rotisserie chicken and add a handful of fresh chopped rosemary to the filling. Baking everything in a cast iron skillet gives the biscuits a beautifully crisp bottom and keeps the filling piping hot.

💜 Sunday Encouragement

Sunday is a gift—a time to rest, worship, and enjoy the people God has placed in our lives.

May your home be filled with peace, your table surrounded by loved ones, and your heart overflowing with gratitude. Sometimes the greatest ministry we have is simply welcoming others with kindness, sharing a meal, and making everyone feel at home.

📖 Scripture for Today

"Let brotherly love continue. Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares."

— Hebrews 13:1–2 (KJV)
