- Pour in half the broth and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Cook until thickened; add remaining broth and simmer for 2 minutes to thicken.
- Stir in cream, peas, spinach, chives, parsley and chicken, if using. Bring to a simmer and reduce heat to low, stirring occasionally while preparing the biscuits.
- Stir lemon zest and juice into filling mixture.
- Season with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Remove from heat.
Biscuits
- Whisk together flour, baking powder, garlic powder and salt in a large bowl.
- Cut in the butter using a pastry cutter or two knives until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in feta and chives. Add in ¾ cup of buttermilk. Stir to form a ragged, wet dough, adding more buttermilk, if needed.
- Using a large spoon, dollop six biscuits onto filling, and transfer skillet to the oven.
- Bake until biscuits are golden brown, about 25 to 30 minutes.
- Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
