STEP THREE – Sprinkle flour over vegetables and stir for 2 minutes.
STEP FOUR – Gradually stir in chicken broth and milk, ensuring no lumps remain. Add poultry seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Simmer until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Stir in shredded chicken and frozen peas.

STEP SIX – Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Let stand 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Tips – Sauce too thick or thin?
- Too Thin: Let the mixture simmer for an extra 2-3 minutes to thicken. If needed, mix 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with 1 tablespoon of cold water and stir it in.
- Too Thick: Add a splash of milk or chicken broth and stir until the desired consistency is reached
