Ingredients
Filling
- 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie chicken recommended)
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn)
- 1 cup cream of chicken soup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- ½ cup chicken broth
Biscuit Topping
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ¾ cup milk
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) and allow it to fully preheat to ensure even baking.
- Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Stir well until the mixture is fully combined and evenly seasoned.
- Transfer the filling: Pour the prepared filling mixture into an oven-safe casserole dish or pie dish, spreading it out evenly to create a uniform base layer for the biscuit topping.
- Make the biscuit dough: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder for flavor. Gradually add the milk, mixing just until the dough comes together without overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
- Top the filling: Spoon or spread the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken and vegetable filling, covering the surface completely.
- Bake the pot pie: Place the casserole dish on a baking sheet to catch any drips, and bake in the preheated oven for about 35-40 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the filling is bubbly.
- Serve: Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm for a comforting and hearty meal.
Notes
- To save time, use store-bought rotisserie chicken.
- Feel free to substitute frozen mixed vegetables with your favorites like green beans or mushrooms.
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
- Using a baking sheet under your casserole dish helps prevent spills in the oven.
- Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best results.
