Key Ingredient Overview
BISCUITS: This recipe keeps things simple and delicious by using premade Grands biscuits for a buttery, flaky topping—no pie crust, no extra prep.

Substitutions
CHICKEN: For the easiest and most flavorful version of this casserole, use rotisserie chicken—it’s tender, seasoned, and ready to go.
If you prefer to use fresh chicken, chicken breasts are a great option. Just cook and shred about two pounds of chicken before starting the recipe. To save time, you can poach, bake, or even slow-cook the chicken in advance.
FROZEN VEGETABLES: Most frozen vegetable blends work perfectly for this casserole, making it super convenient and customizable. Traditional chicken pot pie typically includes a mix of corn, peas, carrots, and green beans for that classic, comforting flavor.
However, you can easily swap in your favorite vegetable mix to make it your own.
Want to add more texture or boost the flavor? Try mixing in fresh veggies like sautéed mushrooms, celery, or even broccoli for extra heartiness. For a sweeter touch, toss in a handful of sweet corn.
GARLIC: If garlic isn’t your favorite flavor, try adding rosemary, chives, thyme, or Italian seasoning to your butter topping instead.
Simplified Steps: How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Casserole
1. Sauté the Veggies for Extra Flavor
Melt butter in a skillet and sauté the frozen mixed vegetables until just tender. This step adds depth to the flavor and prevents a watery filling.
2. Build a Rich, Creamy Filling
In a large bowl, mix the sautéed veggies with shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, milk, salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble and Bake
Pour the filling into a greased baking dish and evenly spread the biscuit pieces on top. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling. If the biscuits brown too quickly, cover the dish loosely with foil.
4. Bake to Perfection
Transfer the casserole to the oven and bake uncovered, or until The biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
If the biscuits start to brown too quickly, loosely cover the dish with foil to let the filling finish cooking without burning the tops.
5. Let It Rest Before Serving
Once baked, let the casserole rest for about five minutes to allow the filling to set. This makes serving easier and ensures each bite is perfectly creamy.
The Best Ways To Serve Casseroles
Chicken Pot Pie Casserole is best served hot and straight from the oven, with each scoop delivering a perfect balance of creamy chicken filling and golden, buttery biscuits.
For a cozy family dinner, serve generous portions alongside a simple homemade Caesar salad, Olive Garden Salad or roasted veggies to balance the richness.
Hosting guests? Garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color. It’s comfort food at its finest—hearty, satisfying, and always a crowd-pleaser.

How to Store A Casserole When It Has Biscuits
Storing in the Fridge
Let the casserole cool completely before covering it tightly with plastic wrap or transferring it to an airtight container. This keeps the creamy filling from becoming watery and the biscuits from getting too soft. Stored properly, it will stay fresh for up to three days in the fridge. (Bear in mind that the biscuits will soften, so they won’t be as crispy as when fresh out of the oven.)
Freezing for Later
To freeze, prepare the filling and let it cool. Transfer it to a freezer-safe dish, cover tightly, and freeze for up to three months. For best results, add fresh biscuits right before baking to avoid sogginess. Thaw overnight in the fridge before baking.
Reheating Tips
For leftovers, reheat the casserole in a 350°F oven until hot and bubbly—this keeps the biscuits from becoming chewy. For quick reheating, microwave individual portions, but the biscuits will be softer.
Make Ahead
If you plan to make this chicken pot pie casserole in advance, then it’s best to freeze it before you bake it. Cover with aluminum foil and store in the freezer for up to three months. You can then bake it straight from the freezer.

Marie says
Awesome and quick. I seasoned the hec out of two chicken breast (garlic & onion powder, Italian seasoning, salt, pepper), sautรฉed and set aside to set while cooking veggies. Added 1 can of cream of mushroom, chicken bouillon, split half &half and milk. Family LOVED IT. Just sharing because the basic recipe is perfect but you can make it your own! Next time, I’m going to split the biscuits and place half on the bottom, filling, then the tops on top. Don’t know how it will turn out but we shall see. Thank you for this quick, fun recipe!
