Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie chicken works well)
- 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
- 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 Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the ideal temperature before baking.
- Prepare 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. Mix thoroughly to create a well-blended filling.
- Transfer Filling: Spread the chicken and vegetable filling evenly in a casserole or pie dish.
- Make 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 fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Add Cheese and Milk: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder to the flour mixture. Gradually mix in the milk just until combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits tender.
- Top the Filling: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken filling to cover the surface.
- Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly and to avoid burns.
Notes
- You can use leftover cooked chicken or rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- Use frozen mixed vegetables for ease, or substitute with fresh if preferred.
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough to keep the topping light and fluffy.
- Allow the pot pie to cool slightly to make serving easier and safer.
- If preferred, you can add herbs such as thyme or parsley to the filling for extra flavor.
