Ingredients
Chicken filling
- 2 cups cooked chicken (shredded or diced)
- 1 small onion (chopped)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 cup mushrooms (optional but AMAZING)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp flour
- 2 cups milk or cream
- ½ cup chicken broth
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp thyme or Italian herbs
- ½ tsp paprika
Cheesy goodness
- 1 cup mozzarella
- 1 cup cheddar
- ½ cup parmesan (optional but wow)
Topping
- 1 can refrigerated biscuits
(or homemade biscuit dough) - 1 tbsp melted butter
- parsley for garnish
## Step 1 – Cook the Creamy Chicken
In a pan:
Melt butter → add onion + garlic → cook until soft.
Add mushrooms + chicken.
Cook 2–3 minutes.
Sprinkle flour → stir 1 minute.
Slowly add:
- milk
- broth
Keep stirring until thick and creamy.
Season with:
salt, pepper, herbs, paprika.
It should look like a rich white sauce.
If it’s too thick → add splash of milk
Too thin → cook longer
## Step 2 – Add the Cheese
Turn off heat.
Mix in half of the cheese.
It melts into the sauce and makes it SUPER creamy.
Taste now… you’ll want to eat it straight from the pan 😂
## Step 3 – Assemble the Bake
Pour mixture into baking dish.
Sprinkle remaining cheese on top.
Cut biscuits into halves or quarters.
Place them on top (don’t overcrowd, they expand).
Brush tops with melted butter.
## Step 4 – Bake
Bake at:
180°C (350°F)
20–25 minutes
Until:
✔ biscuits golden brown
✔ cheese bubbly
✔ edges crispy
Let rest 5 minutes before serving.
(So the sauce thickens nicely)
