How to make Curried Chicken & Biscuits
- Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat. Add onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Step 2
Stir in garlic and ginger; cook for 1 minute.
- Step 3
Stir in curry powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, chili powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 30 seconds to mix in the spices.
- Step 4
Stir in the flour and cook for 2-3 minutes to reduce raw flour taste. Add in sourdough discard if using. 3
- Step 5
Gradually pour in the chicken broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook for 5-7 minutes to allow the soup to thicken slightly.
- Step 6
Stir in the shredded rotisserie chicken and frozen peas.
- Step 7
Cut the biscuit dough into quarters. Lightly coat in flour and gently drop the pieces into the simmering soup. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid.
- Step 8
Reduce heat to low and simmer gently for 15-20 minutes. Avoid lifting the lid too often — the steam is what cooks the biscuits.
- Step 9
Check that the biscuits are cooked through (a skewer should come out clean). Garnish with cilantro and lemon if using and serve hot.
