Make this hearty Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuits for a satisfying, comforting dinner. This recipe uses simple ingredients to create a creamy chicken filling topped with golden, fluffy homemade biscuits.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour (for biscuits)
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder (for biscuits)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt (for biscuits)
  • 1/4 cup cold butter, cut into pieces (for biscuits)
  • 1/2 cup milk or buttermilk (for biscuits)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or a small casserole dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen vegetables, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, milk, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir until the filling is fully mixed and creamy.
  3. Pour the chicken filling mixture into your prepared baking dish.
  4. Prepare the biscuit topping: In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
  5. Cut the cold butter into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
  6. Stir in the milk or buttermilk until just combined to form a soft dough. Do not overmix.
  7. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the top of the chicken filling. You can place them close together to cover most of the surface, or space them out for more individual biscuits.
  8. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  9. Let the pot pie cool for 5 minutes before serving. This is the ultimate comfort food dinner.

Notes

  • For a Southern Chicken Pot Pie feel, add 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese to the filling mixture.
  • If you need a quicker option, substitute the homemade biscuit dough with refrigerated canned biscuits placed on top of the filling.
  • Use leftover rotisserie chicken to make this a true weeknight chicken dinner.
