    6 tablespoons butter, cut up
    3/4 cup buttermilk
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    3 medium carrots, peeled and sliced
    1 medium onion, diced
    2 celery ribs, sliced
    1/2 pound mushrooms, sliced
    3 cups cooked shredded chicken
    3 tablespoons butter
    1/2 cup all-purpose flour
    2-1/4 cups chicken broth

    Recipe



    1. Make biscuits: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking
    Soda, and salt. Cut in butter with two forks until mixture resembles
    Coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk until dough comes together. On a
    Lightly floured surface, roll dough out to 3/4-inch-thick, then cut with
    A 3-inch-round biscuit or cookie cutter, re-rolling scraps to make 6
    Biscuits. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed.

    2. Make filling: Heat oven to 400 degree F. In a large nonstick skillet
    Heat 1-1/2 teaspoons oil over medium heat. Add carrots, onion, and
    Celery, and cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring frequently, until vegetables
    Are just tender. Transfer to a bowl. Add remaining oil to skillet. Cook
    Mushrooms, stirring frequently, 3 to 5 minutes or until liquid has
    Evaporated. Stir in onion mixture and chicken. Remove from heat and set
    Aside.

    3. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add flour; cook,
    Stirring 30 seconds (mixture will be quite stiff). Stir in broth, milk,
    Salt, pepper, thyme, and sage. Let simmer 1 minute, stirring constantly
    With a whisk. Add sauce to skillet and stir in peas. Divide filling
    Among six 1-cup ramekins and place on a jelly roll pan. Top watch with a
    Biscuit. Bake until biscuits are golden and filling is hot and bubbly,
    25 to 30 minutes. Let cool 15 minutes before serving. Makes 6 servings.
