        Step-by-Step Instructions<\/h2>\n
          \n
        1. Preheat your oven<\/strong> to 400\u00b0F (200\u00b0C).<\/li>\n
        2. In a large oven-safe skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat until melted and fragrant.<\/li>\n
        3. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Saut\u00e9 for 5\u20137 minutes<\/strong>, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften and become slightly golden.<\/li>\n
        4. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute<\/strong>, just until fragrant.<\/li>\n
        5. Sprinkle the flour evenly over the vegetables and stir well to coat everything. Cook for 1\u20132 minutes<\/strong> to remove the raw flour taste.<\/li>\n
        6. Slowly pour in the chicken broth while stirring continuously, followed by the milk or half-and-half. Keep stirring until a smooth, creamy gravy forms.<\/li>\n
        7. Season with salt, black pepper, thyme, and poultry seasoning (if using).<\/li>\n
        8. Add the cooked chicken and frozen peas. Let everything simmer for 3\u20134 minutes<\/strong>, until the sauce thickens and coats the filling beautifully.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

          Adding the Topping<\/h2>\n

          Option 1: Biscuit Topping<\/h3>\n
            \n
          • Cut the biscuits in half.<\/li>\n
          • Arrange them evenly on top of the chicken mixture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Option 2: Puff Pastry Topping<\/h3>\n
              \n
            • Lay the puff pastry sheet over the skillet.<\/li>\n
            • Gently tuck the edges around the filling.<\/li>\n
            • Cut a few small slits in the pastry to allow steam to escape.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

              Bake to Golden Perfection<\/h2>\n

              Place the skillet in the oven and bake for 15\u201320 minutes<\/strong>, or until the biscuits or pastry are puffed up and golden brown.<\/p>\n

              Remove from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.<\/p>\n

              • Extra veggies:<\/strong> Add mushrooms, corn, or green beans.<\/li>\n
              • Creamier sauce:<\/strong> Use all half-and-half instead of milk.<\/li>\n

                How to Store & Reheat<\/h2>\n
