How to Make Easy Chicken Biscuit Pot Pie Casserole
Step 1 Preheat your oven to 375F. Grease a 9×13″ baking dish lightly. This stops the casserole from sticking. Use butter or cooking spray for best results.
Step 2 Melt butter in a stockpot over medium heat. Whisk in flour until smooth. Cook for 1 minute to remove raw flour taste. Stir constantly to avoid burning.
Step 3 Slowly add chicken broth and bouillon cube. Whisk until no lumps remain. Season with salt, pepper, and thyme. Let it thicken slightly before adding milk.
Step 4 Bring the mix to a light simmer. Remove from heat to avoid curdling. Stir in shredded chicken and frozen veggies. Mix well for even flavor.
Step 5 Pour the filling into the baking dish. Top with unbaked biscuits, spacing them evenly. Bake 25 minutes until golden. (Hard-learned tip: Don’t overcrowd biscuits—they need room to rise!)
Step 6 Let the casserole cool 5 minutes before serving. This helps the filling set. Scoop portions with a big spoon. Enjoy the cozy, creamy goodness. What’s your go-to comfort food in cold weather? Share below!
