Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.

- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onion, celery, and carrots, and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened.
- Sprinkle 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour over the vegetables and cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
- Gradually whisk in 2 cups of chicken or vegetable broth and 1 cup of whole milk (or half-and-half/heavy cream). Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 3-5 minutes until thickened.
- Reduce heat to low and fold in well-drained canned tuna, frozen peas, and frozen corn. Stir in dried dill, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Adjust seasonings and add lemon juice if desired.
- Pour the hot tuna filling into the prepared baking dish.
- Drop dollops of the biscuit dough over the filling, aiming for 8-10 biscuits.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes until biscuits are golden brown and filling is bubbling.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter and mix in garlic powder and dried parsley (or use the seasoning packet). Brush over the hot biscuits after baking.
