Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Creamed chicken and biscuits casserole is a comforting and delicious dish. Here’s a simple recipe to make it:

Ingredients:

For the Creamed Chicken:

• 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper to taste
• 1 cup frozen peas (optional)
• 1 cup frozen corn (optional)

For the Biscuit Topping:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
• 3/4 cup milk

Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 1-2 minutes to make a roux.
3. Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and heavy cream until smooth. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
4. Stir in the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the cooked chicken, frozen peas, and frozen corn (if using). Stir until everything is well combined. Remove from heat.
5. Pour the creamed chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
6. To make the biscuit topping, in a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
7. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
8. Gradually add the milk, stirring until a soft dough forms.
9. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the top of the creamed chicken mixture in the baking dish.
10. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
11. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
12. Serve the creamed chicken and biscuits casserole hot, garnished with chopped fresh parsley if desired.
