Chicken Pot Pie Recipe

If you love all-in-one casserole recipes then you are going to love this easy chicken pot pie made with pre-made ingredients to help cut down on time.

• Inexpensive - I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken from Walmart. These are cheap and easy to use in recipes like this one. Cream of mushroom soup acts as the base that the vegetables and chicken will be mixed into. A tube of refrigerated biscuit dough cuts down on time too.
• Simple - Just chop the vegetables, shred the chicken, mix the ingredients and bake. It couldn't be more simple than that.

Nothing beats a classic dinner that can be baked all together in a casserole dish. Serve this dish over the Fall or Winter months for a cozy comforting meal.

Recipe Ingredients

The secret to making a good chicken pot pie is to cover and cook the creamy mixture until the potatoes and carrots are tender when poked with a fork. After that, follow the biscuit baking instructions on the side of the package you purchase to ensure even baking. Here is an overview of the ingredients needed:

• Chicken - A store-bought pre-cooked rotisserie chicken helps to save a lot of time! You only need 2 cups of shredded chicken, so there will be leftovers that you could make soup or a chicken sandwich with.
• Refrigerated Biscuits - Look for Pillsbury refrigerated country biscuits or something similar.
• Soup - This recipe uses two cans of soup. One cream of broccoli soup and one cream of mushroom soup. You can also use a cream of chicken soup if preferred.
• Sauce - The two cans of soup are mixed together with milk, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper.
• Carrots - To make life simpler, we used a bag of baby carrots. Frozen carrots would also work and will cook faster.
• Potatoes - A bag of baby yellow potatoes sliced into small chunks. The smaller the slices, the quicker they will cook.
• Broccoli - We used frozen broccoli florets. Fresh broccoli will also work. Be sure to chop it into small pieces.

Pro Tip: Apparently grocery stores actually lose money on rotisserie chickens in order to keep the cost so low. They do this in hopes that the consumer will buy other items at the same time. For this reason, rotisserie chickens are an affordable option to include in weeknight dinners like this one! We bought ours for this recipe from Walmart, but Costco is another great option!

How To Make Chicken Pot Pie Casserole

Here is an overview with full instructions in the recipe card at the bottom of this post:

1. Shred and chop - Shred the rotisserie chicken using two forks. Slice the baby potatoes into small chunks.
2. Mix - In a small bowl, mix together the cream of broccoli soup, cream of mushroom soup and milk. Pour this into a casserole dish. Next add the shredded chicken, potatoes, broccoli, and baby carrots. Stir everything together.
3. Bake - Cover the casserole dish and bake at 400°F for 40-50 minutes. Check for doneness when potatoes and carrots are soft when poked with a fork.
4. Cut and Bake - While the casserole is baking, cut an "x" into the tops of each raw biscuit dough with a knife. Place them on top of the casserole and bake according to the biscuit instructions. Lower the oven temperature if needed. Bake uncovered until biscuits are golden brown.

Pro Tip: Follow the biscuit instructions for the last step of baking to get the best results. Lower the oven temperature if needed, and bake according to the time length on the biscuit tube package.
