Ingredients
2 lbs halal ground chicken thighs
15 oz store-bought biscuit dough
2 cans cream of mushroom soup (or any cream soup)
1.5 cups frozen peas
1 tbsp vegetable oil
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
0.5 cup halal-certified butter
2 cups chicken broth
1 tsp salt
0.5 tsp dried thyme
Milk for brushing biscuits
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and oil a 9×13″ baking dish
Brown chicken in 1 tbsp oil in a skillet until golden and dry, 5-7 minutes
Cool chicken slightly, then add 3 tbsp flour and 0.5 cup melted butter; stir for 15 seconds to coat
Deglaze skillet with 2 cans soup and 2 cups broth; simmer rapidly for 3 minutes
Stir in frozen peas, salt, and thyme; transfer mixture to prepared dish
Press biscuit dough into 1/4″ rounds, dock with a fork, and place 1″ apart on filling
Brush biscuit edges with milk to promote golden browning
Bake for 25 minutes until biscuits are deep golden and filling is bubbling
Notes
Chill biscuits in the oven for 10 minutes before baking for crispier tops
Add 2 tbsp flour to soup mixture if filling seems too wet
Use self-rising flour and butter for homemade biscuit dough if preferred
Always test chicken temperature: 165°F (74°C) is safe to serve
