Shredded Cooked Chicken: The perfect protein to absorb all the delicious flavors. You can either use rotisserie or canned chicken or cook your own, depending on your preference. Butter: This is used to cook the vegetables and, in turn, create the roux for the sauce. Carrots: Not only do they add sweetness, but they also provide a nice crunch to the pot pie. Celery: Gives the recipe a savory crunch that complements the other vegetables. Yellow Onion: It provides a nice savory flavor and a subtle crunch. Dried Parsley and Thyme: These herbs add color and flavors that enhance the whole dish overall. Minced Garlic: This is the best savory flavor enhancer. In fact, give me all the garlic! Salt and Black Pepper: These seasonings bring out and balance the flavors in the dish. All-Purpose Flour: It acts as a thickening agent for the sauce. Chicken Broth: This ingredient creates a flavorful and rich base for the sauce. Half and Half: It adds creaminess and a smooth texture to the sauce. Lemon Juice: This brightens up the whole dish, cutting through the richness. Chicken Bouillon: It intensifies the chicken flavor, making the dish more robust. Tube Biscuit Dough: This takes the place of the crust, giving the dish a dumpling-like texture instead.
Chicken Pot Pie Casserole Recipe
This easy chicken pot pie casserole only takes 20 minutes of prep, and the oven does the rest. You can also get everything prepped and leave it in the fridge until you are ready to eat dinner.
Make Ahead: This casserole can be assembled until baking time. You can put in the fridge overnight to bake fresh the next day. Or you can freeze it and thaw it out when ready to bake. Make sure you do that within a month of prepping. Chicken: For the chicken, you can either buy cooked chicken from the store—I like to use a rotisserie chicken—or cook about two chicken breasts with your preferred method and then shred them. Biscuits: You can use homemade biscuit dough if you prefer, I like using store-bought for convenience.
Refrigerator: Store leftovers in the fridge in an air-tight container for up to 4 days. Freezer: I recommend enjoying this casserole fresh but you can freeze it in an airtight container for up to 2 months.
