Step-by-step
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil, once water is boiling add in potatoes and cook until tender. Strain potatoes from pot and set them aside in a bowl.
- In a large pot, over medium to high heat add butter, once butter has started to melt add in chopped carrots, celery and onion, season vegetables with 3 teaspoons of Montrell Steak seasoning. Cook until onions are translucent.
- Add water and chicken base, bring is a boil. Let it cook over medium heat for 10-15 minutes.
- Add cream or milk to the pot and then stir in flour mixture. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes.
- Add in potatoes and cubed chicken, season with salt and pepper and add an additional 1-2 teaspoons of Montrell Steak seasoning. Let it simmer 15 minutes, until the soup starts to thicken.
- While soup is cooking prepare biscuits.
- Preheat oven to 415 degrees.
- In a medium mixing bowl combine flour, baking powder, sugar, cream of tartar and salt, sift together. Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut in the butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add in milk and using a fork or spoon, stir until dough starts to cling together. Gently flour your counter, then place dough on floured surface and briefly knead until dough is mostly smooth.
- Roll out dough to ½ inch thickness. Cut out biscuits, I use a round 2 ½ inch biscuit cutter.
- Once soup is done cooking, place 8 biscuits directly on top of the soup. Place the entire pot in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.
- If you don’t have a pot you can stick in the oven, just bake the biscuits on a baking sheet for 10-12 minutes and then place on soup immediately when they are done cooking.
- Remove from oven and let it sit for 5-10 minutes to cool, then serve.
