Another from my Sis - Easy Chicken Pot Pie

I have to tell you - my Sister Mercy should really be the one with the blog. I have gotten SO many recipes from her over the years. Granted, she cooks for a family of 7! So I'm guessing it's not "leftovers again" at her house very often. In any case, I'm so glad she gave me a cookbook she and her church friends put together. Everything is super easy and so good! But of course - as all recipes - I've changed it a bit....

Easy Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients:
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 1 cup chopped celery
  • 2 cans Cream of Chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • Pinch Pepper
  • 1 bag frozen veggies, thawed (my house likes the potato & carrot stew mix, Mercy's family prefers broccoli, corn & cauliflower.)
  • 2 cups cubed, cooked chicken (or about 2 chicken breasts)
  • 1 (10 oz+) can of refrigerated flaky biscuits (we use Pillsbury Grands)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a large skillet, melt the butter. Add Celery and onion, and stir over medium-high heat until crisp tender. Stir in Soup, milk and spices. Mix well. Stir in thawed veggies and chicken. Heat through. Pour into 13x9" baking dish.

Separate biscuits, and cut each one into four or six pieces. Place these chunks of dough on top of the filling mixture. They won't completely cover it, but nearly. Place in preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and filling is bubbly.

I don't know why this one confused me... so, do I put half the dough on the bottom or is it ony on top? I hink after writing this I might answered my question already.... ignore me!
