  • Total Time: 50 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/4 cup Butter, salted or unsalted
  • 1 small-medium Onion, diced
  • 1 large Carrot, diced
  • 1 stalk Celery, diced
  • 1 medium Russet Potato, diced
  • 1 teaspoon Minced Garlic
  • 1/4 cup All-Purpose Flour
  • 2 cups Chicken Stock or Broth
  • 2 cups Whole Milk
  • 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 cup Frozen Peas
  • 2 cups Cooked and Shredded Turkey
  • Kosher Salt and Pepper
  • 1 16oz can Grands Biscuits
  • 2 tablespoons Salted Butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Rosemary, or 1 teaspoon dried
  • 1 tablespoon chopped Fresh Thyme, or 1 teaspoon dried

Instructions

  1. Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat and melt the butter. Add the onion, carrots, celery, potato, and a good pinch of salt and pepper. Cook for about 5 minutes until softened and slightly browned. Add garlic and sauté for one minute.
  2. Sprinkle flour over cooked veggies and stir to combine. Slowly add the chicken stock while stirring, scraping bits off the bottom.
  3. Stir in milk and herbs. Bring to a simmer – lower heat, if necessary. Simmer for 4-5 minutes until thickened.
  4. Stir in turkey and peas, folding gently so the shredded meat warms through and peas retain their color.
  5. Combine melted butter with the herbs. Top the pot pie with the biscuits, spacing them evenly, and brush tops with the melted herb butter.
  6. Bake in preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown and the pot pie filling is bubbly. After 10-15 minutes, tent loosely with foil if the biscuit tops get too dark.
  7. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Start with cold butter for even browning. Taste early for seasoning, as stock strength varies. Preheat skillet for a crisper biscuit bottom.
