Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
- 3 cups frozen vegetables
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mild cheddar cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
Topping
- 16 canned biscuits
- 2 tbsp butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking.
- Prepare Baking Dish: Spray a 13×9-inch baking dish with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen vegetables, minced garlic, ground black pepper, shredded cheddar cheese, and mozzarella cheese. Mix all ingredients thoroughly until combined evenly.
- Transfer Filling: Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.
- Prepare Biscuit Topping: Cut each biscuit into quarters and place them in a separate large bowl. Drizzle the melted butter over the biscuit pieces and toss to coat them well.
- Partially Bake Biscuits: Spread the buttered biscuit pieces on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake them for 5 to 7 minutes in the preheated oven until slightly golden but not fully cooked.
- Top Filling with Biscuits: Remove the biscuits from the oven and evenly distribute them over the chicken mixture in the baking dish.
- Bake Entire Dish: Return the baking dish to the oven and bake uncovered for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly and heated through.
- Cool and Serve: Let the casserole cool for a few minutes until safe to handle. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious chicken pot pie with biscuit topping!
Notes
- You can substitute frozen vegetables with fresh vegetables if preferred, adjusting cook time accordingly.
- For a richer flavor, add a teaspoon of dried herbs like thyme or rosemary to the filling mixture.
- Ensure biscuits are partially baked before topping to avoid doughy texture in the final dish.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- To reheat, bake covered with foil at 350°F for 15-20 minutes until warmed through.
