Ingredients
Scale
Protein:
- 1 cup cooked shredded chicken
Vegetables:
- 1 small white onion, finely chopped
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
Other Ingredients:
- 16.3 ounces (462 grams) refrigerated grands biscuits, 8 count
- 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1 cup (240 milliliters) heavy cream
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dry thyme
Instructions
- Prepare a delectable individual chicken pot pie using Grands biscuits, transforming a classic comfort dish into adorable personal servings.
- Heat a large skillet and melt butter, introducing diced onions, vibrant green peas, tender carrots, and minced garlic. Sauté the vegetables until onions become translucent and fragrant.
- Dust the vegetables with flour, creating a roux that will thicken the sauce. Incorporate cooked chicken pieces and stir thoroughly.
- Pour heavy cream into the skillet, seasoning with salt, black pepper, and aromatic thyme. Allow the mixture to simmer and gradually thicken, developing rich flavors.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F and generously coat a muffin tin with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Gently flatten each biscuit using your hands or a rolling pin, expanding them to fit comfortably within the muffin cups. Press the dough carefully along the bottom and sides to create perfect little pie shells.
- Spoon the creamy chicken mixture into each biscuit-lined cavity, ensuring an even distribution of filling.
- Transfer the muffin tin to the preheated oven and bake until the biscuit edges turn golden brown and crispy, approximately 15-17 minutes.
- Allow the mini pot pies to cool briefly, then carefully extract them from the muffin tin. Serve warm and enjoy these individual culinary delights.
Notes
- Customize biscuit thickness by gently stretching or rolling each Grand biscuit for perfect cup coverage.
- Swap heavy cream with lighter alternatives like milk or plant-based cream for lower-calorie versions.
- Enhance vegetable nutrition by adding diced celery or mixed frozen vegetable blends for extra texture and flavor.
- Consider preparing filling ahead of time and refrigerating to develop deeper, richer taste profiles before final assembly.
