Ingredients
Scale
Filling Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
- 2 cups mixed vegetables (carrots, peas, and corn)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ½ cup milk
- Salt, pepper, and herbs to taste
Biscuit Topping Ingredients
- 2 cups baking mix (like Bisquick)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 tablespoons melted butter (plus extra for brushing)
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and milk. Stir until everything is evenly mixed, then season with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs to taste.
- Transfer Filling to a Baking Dish: Pour the creamy mixture into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish and spread it out evenly to form the hearty base of your pot pie.
- Make the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping: In a separate bowl, mix together the baking mix, shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, and melted butter until a soft dough forms. Drop spoonfuls of the dough evenly over the top of the chicken filling.
- Bake until Golden and Bubbling: Place the dish in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly and hot throughout.
- Let it Rest and Serve: Allow the Chicken Pot Pie Bake with Cheddar Bay Biscuits to cool for 5 minutes before serving so the filling sets up a little, making it easier to dish out.
Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken for added flavor and to save time.
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough to prevent tough biscuits.
- Brush the biscuits with butter after baking for a golden shine and extra moisture.
- Check that the filling is bubbling before removing from the oven to ensure it’s cooked through.
- Let the dish rest before serving to prevent runny servings and help flavors meld.
