Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Topping
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter
Garnish
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and the shredded cheddar cheese if using. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Assemble the Casserole: Spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish, creating a uniform layer.
- Prepare Biscuit Topping: Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters. Evenly distribute these biscuit pieces over the top of the chicken mixture in the baking dish.
- Brush with Butter: Use a pastry brush to apply the melted butter evenly over the tops of the biscuit pieces to help them brown and develop a rich flavor.
- Bake: Place the casserole in the preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through.
- Cool and Garnish: Remove from the oven and let the casserole cool for about 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired before serving.
Notes
- You can use rotisserie chicken for a quick and convenient option.
- Swap the biscuit topping for puff pastry or crescent dough if you prefer a different crust texture.
- Add sautéed onions or mushrooms to the filling mixture for extra depth of flavor.
