Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (You can use rotisserie chicken to save time.)
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (Peas, carrots, and corn.)
- 1 cup cream of chicken soup
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (For filling and biscuit topping.)
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- To taste: salt and pepper
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 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 (For a Red Lobster touch.)
Preparation involves combining flavorful filling ingredients for a rich taste.
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- Transfer the filling to your casserole or pie dish, spreading it evenly.
- In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the biscuit topping. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder. Gradually add the milk, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the chicken filling, making sure to cover it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.
Tips & Variations
- Ingredient Substitutions: Swap cooked chicken for turkey or even mushrooms for a vegetarian option. Use fresh vegetables instead of frozen for a fresher taste.
- Optional Variations: Add herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor, or experiment with different cheeses like mozzarella or pepper jack.
- Storage or Reheating Tips: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until heated through, to maintain the biscuit’s texture.
