A creamy chicken and vegetable filling topped with buttery, golden biscuits, this easy-to-make chicken pot pie is the ultimate comfort food for chilly evenings or cozy gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed (rotisserie chicken works perfectly)
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans)
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour (use gluten-free flour if needed)
  • 2 cups chicken broth (low-sodium)
  • 1 cup milk (whole milk or dairy-free alternatives like almond milk)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
  • 1 package biscuits (store-bought or homemade)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted. Add the flour and whisk constantly for 1-2 minutes to create a roux.
  3. Slowly pour in the chicken broth and milk, whisking until the mixture is smooth and starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in the thyme, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the mixed vegetables and cooked chicken. Let it simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is well combined and heated through.
  5. If using store-bought biscuits, follow the package instructions. For homemade biscuits, mix your biscuit ingredients in a bowl (flour, baking powder, salt, cold butter, and milk), roll out the dough, and cut into rounds.
  6. Pour the chicken and vegetable filling into a greased 9×13-inch baking dish. Place the biscuit rounds on top, slightly overlapping if needed.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Let the pot pie cool for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set. Serve warm and enjoy!

Notes

[‘Don’t skip the roux—it’s key to creating a creamy, thick filling.’, ‘Taste the filling before adding the biscuits and adjust the salt, pepper, and spices.’, ‘Keep the biscuit dough cold to ensure flaky layers.’, ‘Make sure the filling is thickened before adding biscuits to prevent sogginess.’, ‘Perfect for using up leftover roasted chicken or turkey.’]
