Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced chicken, carrots, celery, peas, chopped onion, and minced garlic. This mixture will be the base of your pot pie filling.
- Add the chicken broth, heavy cream, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and black pepper to the bowl. Stir well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Transfer the filling mixture into the crockpot, spreading it out evenly. This ensures that all ingredients cook uniformly.
Cook the Filling
- Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low for 6 hours or high for 3 hours. This slow cooking allows the flavors to meld and the chicken to become tender.
Prepare the Biscuit Topping
- In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. This helps to aerate the flour for a lighter biscuit.
- Cut in the cold cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This step creates flaky layers in the biscuits.
- Pour in the milk and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are okay.
Add Biscuit Topping
- After the filling has cooked for 6 hours on low or 3 hours on high, drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the top of the filling. This will create a rustic topping.
- Cover the crockpot again and cook on high for an additional 30 minutes, or until the biscuits are cooked through and golden on top.
Serve
- Once the biscuits are golden and cooked through, carefully serve the chicken pot pie hot from the crockpot. Enjoy the comforting flavors!
