- Transfer to a Baking Dish:
- Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- Top with Biscuits:
- Arrange the refrigerated biscuit dough on top of the filling, spacing them evenly.
- Bake to Perfection:
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Let the pot pie cool for 5-10 minutes before serving. Enjoy warm!
Notes
- Use Rotisserie Chicken: It’s a time-saving option and adds great flavor.
- Don’t Overcook the Biscuits: Keep an eye on them to prevent burning.
- Add Extra Veggies: Customize the filling with your favorite vegetables.
- Make It Ahead: Assemble the dish and refrigerate it for up to 24 hours before baking.
- Use Homemade Biscuits: For an extra special touch, make your own biscuit dough.
- Add Cheese: Stir in shredded cheddar or Parmesan for extra richness.
