It was very good for a quick version I used heavy cream in place of milk

This recipe had a great consistency and lots of flavor! I upped the recipe to make more because i made 8 bisquits. I added a cup and a half of milk and a cup and a half of chicken broth and 1/3 cup of flour. I did not have mushrooms or celery so i put a chopped up sweet red pepper, half an onion, and 1/3 cup of corn. I added as much chicken as i felt necessary. I will make this again!

easy to make - generally have all ingredients on hand. I served over Puff Pastry Shells because I had them. I had cooked a extra boneless chicken breast a few night before. Will have again.

My husband loves this dish. I didn't use as much mushrooms as he isn't a fan and I added a cup of frozen peas/carrots. Very good will definetly be making this again.
