Ingredients
  

For the Soup:

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 medium onion, diced

2 carrots, peeled and diced

2 celery stalks, diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon dried thyme

1 teaspoon dried rosemary

1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

1 cup frozen peas

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken is a great choice)

4 cups chicken broth

1 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup all-purpose flour (to thicken the soup)

For the Biscuit Topping:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

3/4 cup buttermilk

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley (for optional garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Soup Base:

    - In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion, carrots, and celery. Sauté for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and aromatic.

      - Incorporate the minced garlic, dried thyme, dried rosemary, black pepper, and salt. Cook for an additional minute, allowing the garlic and herbs to become fragrant.

        Thicken the Soup:

          - Sprinkle the flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well to ensure they are evenly coated. Cook for an additional 2 minutes to eliminate any raw flour taste.

            - Gradually pour in the chicken broth while constantly stirring to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

              Add Chicken and Peas:

                - Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen peas. Allow the soup to simmer for 10 minutes, letting the flavors combine beautifully.

                  - Finally, mix in the heavy cream, stirring well to integrate it into the soup. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed. Reduce the heat to low to keep the soup warm while you prepare the biscuit topping.

                    Make the Biscuit Topping:

                      - Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).

                        - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

                          - Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut the cold, cubed butter into the dry ingredients until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

                            - Gently pour in the buttermilk and mix until just combined. Avoid overmixing; the dough should remain slightly sticky.

                              Assemble and Bake:

                                - Ladle the hearty chicken pot pie soup into oven-safe bowls or a large baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough on top of the soup, ensuring there’s space between each biscuit for expansion.

                                  - Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuit tops are beautifully golden brown and fully cooked.

                                    Serve:

                                      - Once the biscuits are out of the oven, let them cool for a few minutes. If desired, sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley for a pop of color and freshness. Serve warm and enjoy your comforting bowl of Chicken Pot Pie Soup topped with fluffy biscuits!
