2. Prepare Sauce: In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter or margarine. Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute.

3. Add Liquid: Gradually add the chicken broth and milk to the saucepan, stirring constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.

4. Thicken Sauce: Allow the mixture to boil until it thickens, then stir in the sage, thyme, and black pepper.

5. Add Chicken and Vegetables: Stir in the diced chicken, carrots, sweet peas or green beans, and diced onion until everything is evenly coated in the sauce.

6. Transfer to Casserole Dish: Pour the mixture into a deep 2-quart casserole dish. If you’re not baking immediately, you can cover and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours at this point.

7. Bake: Cover the casserole dish and bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the mixture is very bubbly and hot in the center.

8. Prepare Biscuits: While the casserole is baking, prepare your biscuits according to your favorite recipe or using store-bought ones.

9. Top with Biscuits: Once the casserole is done baking, remove it from the oven and stir the mixture. Arrange as many biscuits as possible on top of the hot chicken and vegetable mixture.

10. Finish Baking: Sprinkle paprika over the casserole and any remaining biscuits. Place any remaining biscuits on a baking sheet to bake separately. Return the casserole and biscuits to the oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

11. Serve and Enjoy: Once the biscuits are done, remove the casserole from the oven. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting flavors of this delicious Chicken and Biscuits dish!
