Ingredients

1 can (16.3 oz) Pillsbury® Grands!® Homestyle refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/4 cup butter
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1-inch cubes
3 medium carrots, chopped
3 medium stalks celery, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 cup sherry
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 carton (32 oz) Progresso® chicken broth (4 cups)
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
1 cup Green Giant® frozen sweet peas
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme leaves

Steps

1
Heat oven to 350°F. Separate dough into 8 biscuits. Flatten each with hand or rolling pin. Drape each biscuit over upside down ungreased muffin cup to create a bowl. Bake 13 to 17 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Remove biscuit bowls from muffin cups; set aside.

2
Meanwhile, melt butter in Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook about 6 minutes or until browned. Remove chicken from Dutch oven; set aside.

3
In same Dutch oven over medium-high heat, cook carrots, celery and onion about 6 minutes or until vegetables have softened. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in salt and pepper. Add sherry; scrape browned bits from bottom of pan.

4
Return chicken to Dutch oven. Sprinkle flour over chicken-vegetable mixture; stir to coat. Cook at least 1 minute or until flour is no longer visible. Add broth; heat about 4 minutes or until boiling. When broth begins to bubble and thicken, stir in cream. Add frozen peas, parsley and thyme; mix well. Cook 1 minute longer. Taste; if necessary, add more salt and pepper.

5
To serve, spoon chicken mixture into biscuit bowls.

To make the inside of the bowl crispy, put the bowls right side up on cookie sheet. Bake another 5 minutes.

The biscuit bowl would be a great way to serve soup, scrambled eggs or a dip. The possibilities are endless.

In order for the broth to thicken, the mixture must come to a boil. Do not rush this step.
