This past week has been crazy busy between the kids going back to school and trying to pack the whole house for our move. Not only do we have boxes everywhere, but the kids have had appointments, and I have had a to do list that seems to only get longer each day, hehe! Needless to say, dinner has been one of the last thing on my mind come 5pm in my house.
Last night however, I scored major points with the kiddos by making this dinner. Not only did they all scrape their plates, but my oldest even asked for it in his lunch box! The biscuits throughout the entire casserole made them fall in love…..you know, kids and their bread!
Shredded chicken, cut up biscuit pieces, and mixed veggies make this casserole a complete dinner! I had this ready for the oven in under 10 minutes, and eating it 30 minutes later!!
For those crazy busy nights, I definitely suggest trying this!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup cheddar cheese
- 1 1/2 cups frozen veggies (I used mixed, any type works)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp seasoned salt
- 2 (6 oz) cans of refrigerated biscuits
Directions:
- In a medium mixing bowl, combine the chicken, cream of chicken, sour cream, cheddar cheese, veggies, garlic powder, and salt.
- Cut each biscuit into fourths and toss pieces into chicken mixture.
- Spray a 9 x 13 baking pan with cooking spray and spread chicken biscuit mixture evenly.
- Place pan in preheated oven, 375, and bake for about 35-45 minutes, or until cooked through. *Could take longer depending on oven
- Remove from oven and serve!!
what type of biscuits
I use Grand Jr Biscuits! Small package in the refrigerated section 🙂
I had mine in 40 minutes but the biscuits weren’t done all the way. ..
It really depends on how big you cut the biscuits and the oven used, but I have had friends say it could take up to 60 minutes. I will change the directions right now. Thanks!!! 🙂
Was very good but I wasn’t sure if I was suppose to mix the biscuits in or just lay them on top. I just layed them on top and the biscuits got done and I still had 22 minutes left to bake.
I typically mix them into the whole dish, but laying them on top works great too!!
What type of seasoned salt did you use? Thanks!
Hi!! I use Morton’s or Lawry’s!!
Hi! I used croissants in the can, layered on top and it was DELICIOUS! 😀 Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
Great idea! So glad it was a hit!! 🙂
Do I shred or chunk the cheddar cheese
Shred the cheddar cheese 🙂
I just have to let you know that I found this recipe and had to try it last night. It was delicious. The only problem I found is that I’m going to have to double up on the ingredients, because it didn’t make enough. A…..for awesome!!!
Very good and easy to make. Made for potluck at work a few weeks ago and went over well. Making another one now for the family tonight. ??
So glad you enjoy it!! Great idea making it for a potluck!!
Can’t wait to try looks so good thank you
Hope you enjoy! Be sure to keep me posted!
This is by far the best recipe for chicken pot pie, that I have viewed. Its simple ingredients and it looks good. Can’t wait to try it!
Yea!! Hope you enjoy it as much as my family does!!
Can you prepare this, put in thr frig for later to bake?
Absolutely! That works great!
I make this often but mix bisquick and milk it forms a thin batter and pour over the top instead of can biscuits. So good.
Oh yum!! That sounds tasty too!!
This was a big hit with my family. Thank you for sharing Kristen. I cut the biscuits into 8ths and they cooked out perfectly.
Yea!! So glad to hear this! Its a favorite in my house too! Leftovers are just as good, so if you have any, you’ll enjoy those too!!
Would can mixed veggies be alright to use instead of frozen?
Sure! That works great too!!
Just wanted to say that this was super good! My fam absolutely loved it! I cooked my chicken in the crock pot then at super time threw it together, so easy! Thanks so much for the new fam fav!
Yea!! So glad you all enjoyed it! Great idea on cooking the chicken in the slow cooker, that’s my favorite method!!
It’s in the oven now, smells great, thanks for recipe! I made the chicken in my instant Pot and shredded with an electric hand blender, way easier than two forks!
Ugh, update! I just grabbed two cans of biscuits and didn’t look at ounces. So instead of 12oz bisquits, I have32 ounces! No wonder it’s not cooking properly!
Great idea! Hope you enjoy!
Oh no! How did it turn out? Hopefully just a longer cook time but still tasty!
This was a dry, undone biscuit, flavorless mess and disgusting. All three children refused it. My partner and I could barely stomach it. The biscuits didn’t cook and just got gooey and remained raw. Used a rotisserie chicken and it was water in this. You can’t taste any other ingredient. It’s VERY dry. Never again. I’ll stick to making biscuits and pouring filling over them. Much faster, tastier and at the very least COOKED. I hope none of us get sick…
Bummer it wasn’t a hit! Not sure why this turned out dry as its a very creamy dish. As for the biscuits, could they have been under cooked still? Each oven varies, so perhaps it needed more time? Sorry to hear it didn’t turn out nonetheless!
What size can of soup? Family size? Or the smaller 10 oz can?
Sorry about that, the smaller can, 10.5 oz I believe!
Do I add water to the soup?
Nope, no need to add water to the soup!
Oh so good! My family of 5 loved it. The only complaint was it didnt make enough because it was Sony everybody wanted more
Yea!! Love hearing that! And if that’s the only complaint, I will take it, haha, although….I do agree….leftovers would be nice with this dish but everyone always goes back for seconds, haha!
We do this but add bisquick garlic cheese bread mix to the top double the liqid and swap the water to milk …. i usually doubble the recipee and use 2 bisquick packs … its a plate cleaner recipee 🤣
Oh that sounds great too! It sure is a plate cleaner recipe, I agree!
I made this and added Rames frozen noodles to ITV to it ! ( I cooked the noodles part way) Yummmm
What a fun idea! Glad you enjoyed it!
Do you cover this with foil when baking?
How many does this feed?
Nope, no need to cover!
This recipe is about 6-8 servings!
Can u put potAtoes in it
Sure, but make sure you cut the potatoes small so they get tender!
Do u have to use the sour cream? Or is there a substitute for it?
You can use an extra can of cream of chicken soup in place of the sour cream if preferred!
Do you cook the frozen veggies or add them still frozen? I love pot pies.
I typically keep them frozen as I don’t remember to thaw in time, haha! Either way works great!
I made this twice now, the first time I followed exact recipe, and my biscuits were still doughy. So I altered the recipe a bit, in stead of adding the biscuits to mixture, I used crescent roll dough, rolled out a whole can foe the bottom adding mixture and them topped with another can of crescent roll dough on the top, my family enjoyed it way more 🙂
In the oven now 🙂 I was running on a skeleton kitchen so I made it sans sour cream and the only veggies on hand other than salad were a couple cans of corn. So mine is a good unmeasured amount of chicken breast strips precooked and diced, 2 cans of corn, 2 cans of cream of mushroom soup, not sure how much cheese I grated into it, a couple tablespoons of minced garlic, a sprinkle of Lawry’s. I didn’t have refrigerator biscuits so I made a basic batch of biscuit dough and crumbled it throughout the mixture. Smells great lol
That is a great idea as well! I almost always have crescents on hand, so I will give that a try next time!
Oh wow, how awesome are you to whip up homemade biscuits! Hope it turned out great, sure sounds yummy!
I dislike frozen veggies. Can I use fresh broccoli florets and/or fresh cut peppers instead?
Sure! That works great too!
Made this tonight! 👍🏼👍🏼 I added extra shredded cheese on top. It was fabulous! I didn’t shred the chicken, I cut it in chunks.
I don’t have cheddar, can I use shredded mozz or shredded parm ?
I want to make this, sounds yumny. Do i put the chicken strip tendors in frozen or should i cook them first? And there boneless & skinless
Do i put the boneless skinless chicken tendors in frozen or already cooked? Also would can white meat chicken work?
Not very impressed. Way too thick.
Oh yum! We love cheese in my family, so good call on adding extra!
Sure! Use a little of both for an added flavor! Yum!
Cook them first, I prefer cooked/shredded. You can also chunk them!
Awww, sorry to hear! You can always add another can of cream of chicken soup if preffered!
been making for years you can switch up broccoli,cauliflower and carrots for veg and use broccoli cheddar soup
Makes a nice change
Great idea! I will have to try that too!
I was thinking about using my left over turkey from Thanksgiving any thoughts??
That is a great idea!! That would be tasty too!!
I put potatoes in mine and I pre boil them first to ensure they would get done in the time the casserole cauld bake. This pot pie looks amazing.
I made this tonight and got the thumbs up from my hubby. It was delicious!
Great idea! I love adding potatoes!! Enjoy!!
Yea! So glad you both enjoyed it!
are you adding chicken that is already roasted
Yes, however you choose to cook it (slow cooker, rotisserie, boiled, etc), just make sure the chicken is precooked prior to assembling casserole
Can you freeze this,and if so before or after cooking? It makes to much for 2
I recommend freezing after its cooked and cooled off! You can always halve the recipe if preferred as well!
Do the biscuits that are mixed inget baked or stay doughy like dumplings? Also , if using crescent roles do you put them on the bottom of the dish and on the top of the filling?
Im doubling the recipe and was considering using 1 cup sour cream & 1 cup ricotta cheese but I don’t know what that would do to the consistency and flavor profile. Would this work?
They bake, but they are a bit doughy still. I would say a mix between dumpling and biscuit if that makes sense! As for using crescent, I would stick to just using it on top as the bottom wouldn’t cook through and be too doughy. Enjoy!
Hmmmm, I think that should work. I haven’t tried it personally, but I don’t see why that wouldn’t work out great!
I have the 3 pickiest children ever and all 3 LOVED this. Thanks so much for sharing this recipe!
Yea!! Love hearing this! So glad your picky ones loved it too, that’s always a plus!
I always use a deli-roasted chicken and about 3 or 4 cups, chopped . Because it’s already seasoned and tastes good!
Yum, great idea and saves on time!
Are you aware that the print and pdf versions are missing two items from the ingredient list? The can of cream of mushroom soup and the cup of sour cream aren’t shown.
Made it the first time & after baking, the mix turned out on the dry side and the biscuits were more like dumplings. Adjusted the recipe to incorporate some mayo, chicken broth & a little milk to wet down the initial mix. Baked that without the biscuits. Cut the biscuits into 8 ths,, baked the pieces separately, put them on the plates and put the baked mix over the top. A little more work but really worked well for me. The flavor was excellent & the biscuits were baked completely. Will be making it again.
Oh yikes! Thanks for letting me know, I will look into it and try to get that fixed! Those are two important ingredients for that to be missing! Thanks!!
I love the changes you did! What a great idea! I’m glad to hear your end result was a success!
I am making this for a church meal ( we feed the homeless once a week) so I am thinking about rolling and putting the biscuits on top like a crust…does that change the baking time?
What a sweet outreach that is! I love hearing that!
As for putting the biscuits on top, it may decrease the cook time since they’ll cook faster. Go ahead and decrease cook time by about 10 minutes and keep an eye on it from there!
Enjoy!
2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
1 can cream of chicken soup
1 cup sour cream
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 1/2 cups frozen veggies (I used mixed, any type works)
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp seasoned salt
2 (6 oz) cans of refrigerated biscuits
What is missing on this list? Do I need a can of cream of mushrooms too?
Nope, nothing is missing from the list. I was having a printing error previously, but its been corrected and all is good! Hope you enjoy!
Trying recipe now, will let you know how it turns out
Made this and its bomb
We did use crescent rolls for top and bottom instead of biscuits though
Oh yea! How was it?? Hope you enjoyed!!
Yea!! So glad you enjoyed it!!
I improvised a bit to make half the recipe. Big mistake!! Hubby absolutely loved it and I’ll definitely make again. It was creamy and delicious. I just pulled apart the biscuits into small pieces and they cooked perfectly. Thanks for sharing this recipe.
Yea! So glad you both enjoyed it! Both my hubby and I typically fight over the leftovers, so its made frequently in our house, haha!
