Cook biscuits separately, mine sunk into the stew and did not reach their full potential. If you like chicken pot pie, this is for you. Delicious, filling, creamy, hearty.

Fantastic, tasty, versatile. Amazing. Biscuits puffed up brilliantly. I made them smaller and still worked just fine.

I've made this recipe many times. I prefer to keep it stove top and cook the biscuits in the oven separately. I like keeping my Le Creuset pot on the stove for company to serve out of and then having a basket of biscuits.
Ina is the only chef who I trust for recipes that don't need to be tested first. I've never had a bad Ina recipe.

This is a great way to use leftover chicken or turkey and leftover gravy, and is very versatile as you can use whatever veggies you like. I make biscuits frequently and found Ina's recipe to be very similar to the one I use; however, I normally use less salt. As one reviewer suggested, you can pat the dough out to the right size and lay it on top of the stew in one piece, just as you would with a pie crust. Fast and very easy.

Amazing!!! I followed the recipe exactly and it came out so good. I do think the carrots were a little too raw, next time I'll saute them with the onion maybe to get them more soft. The biscuits were so easy and so good. It was only the 2nd time I had made biscuits from scratch so I was a little nervous but they turned out wonderful. Will be making this dish again. Oh I did make some homemade mashed potatoes to go with too and that made it even better.

I followed this recipe with adjustments and would agree that the salt needs to cut in half. I also used left over homemade biscuits from breakfast, which worked well. Just bake the chicken stew for 20 minutes, add the biscuits and bake for another 15. The biscuit tops will bake more brown, but I brushed them with the liquid egg mixture before baking and that seemed to help guard against burning. I will definitely try this again! Everyone loved this dish, and it made a large quantity which was perfect for our large family of 8.

This recipe is KILLER!!! Made it tonight and we loved it. I mircrowaved the carrots for two minutes like some of the comments said and they came out good, could have use one more minute. I used Grands biscuits topped with garlic butter and they were absolutely perfect. Low sodium chicken broth was also a good decision, glad I read the comments! The flavor was perfect. Ina's recipes can't be beat!

This recipe is my families FAV of all time! Followed the recipe exactly the first time and found it onion-heavy (and we love onion...so now we use 1 onion, no pearl onions, all the peas, heavy cream is delish but the recipe works with fat free half-n-half or 2% milk. Can cut the butter in half easily without losing flavor! We're thinking of trying it without chicken (and using veggie stock for some vegetarian friends!

Used Grand biscuits for top and omitted the pearl onions. It's good but the salt was overwhelming. I'll make this again without the 2 tsp salt and bullion and use a low sodium stock. That should do the trick.
