How To Make Ina Garten Chicken Pot Pie With Biscuits

1. Preheat oven: Heat oven to 400°F (200°C).
2. Cook vegetables: Melt butter in a Dutch oven. Add onion, carrots, and celery; cook 5–7 minutes until softened.
3. Make roux: Stir in flour and cook for 2 minutes.
4. Add liquids: Slowly whisk in chicken broth and cream. Cook until thickened.
5. Finish filling: Stir in chicken, peas, salt, pepper, and thyme. Simmer 5 minutes.
6. Mix biscuits: In a bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in cold butter until crumbly. Stir in buttermilk until just combined.
7. Assemble pie: Pour filling into a 9×13-inch dish (or ramekins). Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough on top.
