Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even cooking.
  2. In a 12-inch iron skillet, melt the butter over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the chopped onions and celery, seasoning with salt and pepper. Sauté for 5 to 7 minutes until tender.
  4. Stir in the flour, cooking for 1 to 2 minutes until it begins to brown slightly.
  5. Gradually pour in the chicken stock and evaporated milk, stirring continuously until bubbly and thickened, resembling a creamy sauce.
  6. Stir in the diced chicken and peas, then remove the skillet from heat.
  7. Separate the biscuit dough into 8 biscuits and cut each into four equal pieces.
  8. Place the biscuit pieces on top of the chicken mixture in the skillet.
  9. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes until the biscuits are golden and fluffy.
  10. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.

Notes

For added depth, sauté garlic along with the vegetables or try different vegetables like corn or green beans. For a spicier kick, add cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the filling. You can use homemade biscuit dough for a personal touch.
