Filling Ingredients
- 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 Ingredients
- 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’s ready for baking your pot pie.
- 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 until all ingredients are well incorporated to create a creamy filling.
- Transfer Filling: Pour the prepared filling into a casserole or pie dish, spreading it out evenly for consistent baking.
- Make Biscuit Dough: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, then stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder.
- Combine Biscuit Ingredients: Gradually add the milk to the flour mixture, stirring just until combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.
- Top Filling: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the chicken filling, distributing evenly to cover the surface.
- Bake Pot Pie: Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly, indicating it’s fully heated through.
- Cool and Serve: Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly for easier slicing and serving.
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds flavor.
- Ensure butter is cold when cutting into flour to achieve flaky biscuits.
- Do not overmix the biscuit dough to prevent tough topping.
- You can substitute frozen mixed vegetables with fresh vegetables if preferred.
- Let the pot pie rest a few minutes after baking for easier serving.
