For the chicken:

• ▢ 1 chicken 3-4 lb, cut up
• ▢ about 6 cups water
• ▢ 4-5 carrots diced {about 2 cups}
• ▢ 1 large onion diced {about 2 cups}
• ▢ 4-5 stalks celery diced {about 2 cups}
• ▢ 3 cloves garlic minced {about 1 TBSP}
• ▢ ½ teaspoon salt
• ▢ 3 tablespoon cornstarch

For the biscuits:

• ▢ 1 ½ cups whole white wheat flour
• ▢ 2 teaspoon baking powder
• ▢ ½ teaspoon salt
• ▢ ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
• ▢ ¼ teaspoon paprika
• ▢ ¼ cup avocado oil or canola oil
• ▢ ½ cup milk 2%, whole, or unsweetened almond, rice or coconut milk

To make the chicken:

• Add the chicken to a french or dutch oven and cover with water. Bring to a boil, and simmer for about 25 minutes until cooked through.

• Meanwhile, diced the carrots, onions, and celery. Mince the garlic.

• When the chicken is cooked, remove from cooking liquid {broth} and set aside to cool. Strain the cooking liquid and reserve 1 cup {put in the fridge to cool} and return 3 cups to the french oven. Add the carrots, onions, celery, garlic, and ½ teaspoon salt. Simmer for about 20 minutes until veggies are tender and broth has reduced.

• Meanwhile, take chicken meat off the bone and set aside. Preheat the oven to 350*F.

• Whisk together the cornstarch and cold reserved cup of broth until no lumps remain. Stir into the veggie-broth mixture. Cook about 5 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and stir in the chicken. Transfer to preheated oven and cook while you make the biscuits.

For the biscuits:

• Sift together the whole white wheat flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and paprika. Stir in oil and milk until just combined. Shape into 6 biscuit like shapes.

• Turn the oven to 425*F. Carefully take casserole out of oven and top with the biscuits.

• Bake in 425*F oven for 12 minutes until biscuits are browned. Let cool about 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!

Save the additional leftover chicken broth for another use. Homemade chicken broth is the best stuff ever so definitely don't waste it! It freezes well
