Directions – Pot Pie Filling
Grease a 13” x 9” baking pan or casserole and set aside.
Heat a large, heavy-bottom pot over medium heat.
Add the olive oil, celery, onion, and carrots. Sauté for 5 minutes, until carrots are just tender.
Add the flour and stir well so no dry spots remain.
While whisking constantly, slowly add the chicken stock to the vegetables and flour.
Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until thickened.
Add the cream and continue to simmer and stir for 2–3 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Scrape the filling into the prepared baking dish and set aside to cool slightly while preparing the biscuits.

1 teaspoon salt

1 stick chilled unsalted butter, cut into ¼-inch pieces
1 cup buttermilk
¼ cup butter olive oil

Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a food processor, add all dry ingredients and pulse to combine.
