Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie chicken works great)
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 1 cup cream of chicken soup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
Biscuit Topping
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon garlic powder
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 375°F (190°C) to warm up while preparing the dish.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked diced chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Stir until everything is evenly mixed to create a flavorful filling.
- Transfer Filling to Baking Dish: Pour and spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly into a casserole or pie dish, creating the base layer for your pot pie.
- Make the Biscuit Dough: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed butter until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs—this creates a tender biscuit texture.
- Add Cheese and Milk: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder to the flour mixture. Gradually pour in the milk, mixing gently just until combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
- Top the Filling: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken filling, covering as much surface area as possible for an even biscuit topping.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is a beautiful golden brown and the filling beneath is hot and bubbly.
- Cool and Serve: Let the pot pie cool for a few minutes after baking to set, then serve warm and enjoy the comforting flavors.
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken can save prep time and add extra flavor.
- Feel free to substitute frozen mixed vegetables with fresh or your favorite combinations.
- For a crispier biscuit topping, brush with a little melted butter before baking.
- Ensure the butter is cold when mixing into the flour for flaky biscuits.
- You can add herbs like thyme or rosemary to the filling for added depth.
- Leftovers keep well refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheat nicely in the oven.
