Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons olive oil, or more as needed
  2. 1 cup chopped celery
  3. 1 cup chopped carrots
  4. 1 large onion, chopped
  5. 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  6. 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
  7. ½ stick butter
  8. 2 teaspoons salt, or to taste
  9. 2 teaspoons ground black pepper, or to taste
  10. 4 medium Yukon Gold potatoes, cubed
  11. ¼ cup all-purpose flour
  12. 1 quart water
  13. 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  14. ¼ cup lemon juice, or to taste
  15. 3 cubes chicken bouillon
  16. 1 ½ tablespoons poultry seasoning
  17. 1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
  18. 1 bay leaf
  19. 1 ½ pounds cooked chicken breast, chopped
  20. 1 (16.3 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury Grands!®)

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke. Add celery, carrots, onion, and bell pepper. Stir using a wooden spoon until vegetables begin to soften, 5 to 8 minutes.
  2. Add garlic to the pot and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add butter and stir until melted and coating all of the veggies, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Add potatoes and flour; stir until veggies are coated and are beginning to form a creamy texture, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in water, cream of chicken soup, lemon juice, chicken bouillon, poultry seasoning, cayenne pepper, and bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and simmer until potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  3. Add chicken to the pot. Simmer soup, uncovered, until broth is reduced and thickened, about 10 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, open biscuits and slice each piece of dough in half. Add biscuit pieces to the top of the soup. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 8 minutes.
  5. Remove cover and turn each biscuit over. Cover the pot and simmer 8 minutes more. Serve in bowls with biscuits on the bottom.
  6. You can use cooked chopped chicken thighs instead of chicken breasts, if preferred.

Important to roll out the biscuits thin and then dip in flour-I use a pizza cutter to slice into 1″-2″ pieces and it turns out wonderful! Otherwise, I can see where it would be doughy and #1 rating! I do not add cayenne pepper or potatoes either.

The biscuits were too doughy and the cayenne was inedible for us.
