Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 2

Melt butter in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add onion, celery, and carrots and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 15 minutes.

Step 3

Stir in peas, flour, parsley, and thyme and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour coats the vegetables and begins to fry, about 5 minutes.

Step 4

Whisk in chicken broth and half-and-half, and cook until the sauce is thick and bubbling. Stir in cooked chicken, and season with salt and pepper.

Step 5

Transfer chicken, vegetables, and sauce into a 7x11-inch baking dish. Arrange biscuits on top of the filling.

Step 6

Beat egg yolk with water in a small bowl. Brush mixture over the biscuits.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the pie filling is bubbly, 20 to 25 minutes.

Step 8

Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes before serving.
