3/4 pound carrots (about 4), cut into 1-inch lengths
2 stalks celery, thinly sliced
1 small onion, chopped
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken thighs (about 8)
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth
6 (store-bought or Easy Drop Biscuits; see recipe), split
1 cup frozen peas
1/2 cup heavy cream
Easy Drop Biscuits
2 cups all-purpose flour, spooned and leveled
1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup whole milk
Recipe
1.In a 4- to 6-quart slow cooker, toss together the carrots, celery, onion, and flour. Place the chicken on top and season with the poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and teaspoon pepper. Add the wine and broth.
2.Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are tender, on low for 5 to 6 hours or on high for 2 1⁄2 to 3 hours (this will shorten total cooking time).
3.Thirty minutes before serving, prepare the Easy Drop Biscuits (if using).
4.Ten minutes before serving, add the peas, cream, and teaspoon salt to the chicken and stir to combine. Cover and cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more.
5.To serve, place the bottom halves of the biscuits in shallow bowls, then top with the chicken mixture and the remaining biscuit halves.
Easy Drop Biscuits
1.Heat oven to 400 F. In a food processor, combine the flour, butter, baking powder, and salt; pulse until pea-size clumps form. Add the milk and pulse just until moistened.
2.Drop 6 large mounds of the dough (about cup each) onto a baking sheet. Bake until golden, 18 to 20 minutes
