Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuit Top

[Cazness]

I made this a month or so ago when it was nice and cold, finally got around to posting it. What I liked was that really you can throw anything in, next time I'll do more veggies for sure. I also like it that there's no crust on the bottom.
 
Creamed Chicken
4 Tbs. butter
1/2 cup all purpose flour   
2 cups chicken broth   
1-1/2 cups whole milk
3 chicken breast halves, cooked cube   
2 Tbs. sherry   
1/2 tsp. nutmeg
lemon juice   
white pepper
salt

Melt the butter, whisk in flour, brown. Whisk in broth and milk slowly to avoid lumps. Bring to a simmer and allow to cook until thickened. Add rest of ingredients and season to taste.


I baked my chicken with some oil and seasonings.


Butter and flour, I like a slightly darker roue.


Added stock


Creamyness


Shredded chicken


Chicken added

Chicken Pot Pie
2 Tbs. butter
1 medium onion, chopped   
1-1/2 cup carrots, chopped
1/4 cup celery
3/4 cup peas   
3 Tbs. parsley, minced
2-1/2 quarts creamed chicken
2 cups crust dough

Saute onions, add vegetables until about half done (of they'll get too soggy when they bake.) Add to creamed chicken mixture

1 Tbs. baking powder
1/4 tsp. salt

this is probably one of my most favorite foods if done right..yours looks delicious!  I'm curious about the nutmeg in the creamed chicken?  I know a lot of people add nutmeg to meat and sauces....can you taste the nutmeg in the creamed chicken?  how does that taste?   I'm definitely going to try your recipe!
