Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil, lard, or other AIP-friendly cooking fat
  • 1 small onion, chopped finely
  • 2 medium carrots, peeled and cut 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 celery rib, diced
  • salt
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1/4 cup cassava flour
  • 2 cups bone broth
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Topping

  • 1 cup cassava flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/3 cup lard or palm shortening
  • 1/2 cup water

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet. Cook onions, carrots, and celery until soft (about 5 minutes), stirring frequently. Add chicken. Sprinkle 1/4 cup cassava flour and stir to distribute and allow it to brown slightly (about 1-2 minutes).
  3. Add broth and cook until sauce is thick and bubbling, stirring constantly.
  4. Add thyme and salt to taste. Pour into 1-2 quart baking dish and set aside.
  5. In medium bowl, whisk together cassava flour, baking soda, and salt.
  6. Using two forks or a pastry blender, mix in lard or vegetable shortening until well distributed.
  7. Add water and mix with a spoon until dough forms.
  8. Roll dough out on floured surface and cut into six round biscuits (the dough will be wet, so this may be tricky – it’s OK if your biscuits look a little “rustic!”).
  9. Place biscuits on top of filling.
  10. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown.
