Chicken Filling Preparation

Cook Chicken
In a large pot over medium heat, add olive oil. Once heated, add the chicken breasts. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side until browned and cooked through. Remove chicken and let it rest.

Sauté Vegetables
In the same pot, add the chopped onion, diced carrots, and diced celery. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are softened. Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute.

Make Sauce
Sprinkle flour over the sautéed vegetables and stir well. Gradually add chicken broth and milk while stirring to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and let it thicken, about 5 minutes.

Add Chicken
Shred the cooked chicken and return it to the pot. Stir in salt, black pepper, and dried thyme. Let it simmer while you prepare the biscuits.
Biscuit Preparation

Prepare Biscuit Dough
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Add cold cubed butter and mix using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
