Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)

1 small onion, diced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 cup biscuit dough (store-bought or homemade)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

      Combine Ingredients: Stir in the shredded chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, chicken broth, cream, thyme, rosemary, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5-7 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.

        Prepare the Baking Dish: Pour the chicken mixture into a greased 9x13-inch casserole dish, spreading it evenly.

          Add Biscuit Topping: Open the biscuit dough package and separate the biscuits. Cut each biscuit into quarters and arrange the pieces evenly on top of the chicken mixture to create a 'topping' layer.

            Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the mixture is bubbling around the edges.

              Garnish: Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool slightly. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

                Serve and Enjoy: Scoop out portions and serve hot for a comforting meal perfect for any occasion!
