  • Salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 6 tablespoons flour
  • 2 cups milk

  • Chicken stock bouillon for 2 cups of broth
  • 1 1/2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken, chopped into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • Ground black pepper
  • One 14-ounce can of artichokes, drained and chopped

  • 8 ounces cream cheese
  • Pinch of crushed red pepper
  • One 16-ounce package of refrigerated biscuit dough

  • Flaky salt

Directions

Melt Butter: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, melt 3 tablespoons of butter.

Cook Onion: Add 1 finely chopped onion and a pinch of salt. Cook for about 10 minutes until soft.

Add Garlic: Stir in 2 chopped cloves of garlic and cook for 1 minute.

Mix Flour: Add 6 tablespoons of flour, stirring to combine.

Add Milk: Gradually add 2 cups of milk, stirring continuously until thickened.

Add Stock: Stir in the chicken stock bouillon.

Cook Chicken: Add 1 1/2 pounds of chopped chicken, 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme, and ground black pepper. Simmer for 10-15 minutes until the chicken is cooked through.

Combine Ingredients: Stir in the drained and chopped artichokes, drained spinach, 8 ounces of cream cheese, a pinch of crushed red pepper, and additional black pepper. Stir until the cream cheese melts.

Prepare Casserole: Divide the mixture into eight 5-inch aluminum pans or one 9-by-13-inch casserole dish.

Top with Biscuits: Separate the refrigerated biscuit dough and place it on top of the mixture.

Egg Wash: Brush the biscuits with the egg wash and sprinkle with flaky salt and black pepper.

Bake Immediately: Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Bake for about 15 minutes until the biscuits are golden brown.

Freeze (Optional): If not baking immediately, let the casseroles cool to room temperature, cover tightly with foil, and freeze. To reheat, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 30 minutes.
