It’s like a warm hug from your oven, perfect for those chilly evenings when all you want is something cozy and satisfying. Plus, this twist cuts down on prep time without skimping on the taste.

2 teaspoons of salt
1 teaspoon of ground white pepper
2 teaspoons of garlic powder
5 tablespoons all purpose flour
2 cups of whole milk (or plant milk substitute)

Instructions
Chop carrots, celery, and yellow onion into small pieces and set aside in separate bowls.

Remove rotisserie chicken meat from the bones and set aside.
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a large skillet pan on medium heat, add butter, onions, celery, fresh thyme, salt, white pepper, and garlic powder, and sauté until translucent.
Next, add chicken broth, flour, milk, and Dijon mustard and stir quickly to achieve desired rue thickness and consistency. Note, you can add more or less broth or flour depending on your preference for thickness.
Next, add carrots, chicken, and frozen peas mixing well to combine ingredients.
Transfer the mixture to a 9 x 13 inch baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.
In a separate oven or rack, bake the biscuits as directed on the package or until golden brown and flaky.
Once the pot pie mixture has baked, top with cooked biscuits or serve separately as you prefer.
Enjoy!
Notes
You can top the chicken pot pie mixture with the raw biscuit dough, and bake together at 375 degrees. However, the bottom of the biscuits may not be fully cooked after 30 minutes. You can remove the tops the biscuits, set them aside, and continue to bake the dish until the bottoms are cooked, and then replace the tops or bake separately as suggested.
