Full of chicken, vegetables, and topped with a tasty biscuit, this chicken pot pie in soup form is the perfect comfort food.

Ingredients

1/2 (12 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough
1 pinch ground paprika
3 tablespoons salted butter
1 1/2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast, diced
1 large carrot, chopped
1 small yellow onion, chopped
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 quart chicken stock
2 medium white potatoes, peeled and chopped
1 pint half-and-half
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup frozen green beans
1 cup frozen lima beans

Directions

1 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2 Place biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet and sprinkle paprika on the tops.
3 Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 13 to 16 minutes.
4 While the biscuits are baking, melt butter in a medium pot over medium or medium-high heat. Add chicken and cook until no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes. Add carrot, onion, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper; cook until veggies have softened, about 5 minutes.
5 Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Add chicken stock and potatoes; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Add half-and-half and nutmeg; simmer for 10 minutes. Add frozen peas, green beans, and lima beans. Cook, stirring occasionally, until potatoes are tender and frozen vegetables are heated through, 5 to 10 minutes.
6 Serve immediately with a biscuit on top of each bowl.
