Ingredients
Instructions
- Cook chicken breasts in the broiler for 20 to 25 minutes or until done.
- Mix drained mixed vegetables, cream of mushroom soup, cream of chicken soup, and milk in a bowl.
- Chop the cooked chicken into bite-sized pieces and add to the vegetable mixture.
- Pour the mixture into a greased 9x12 inch baking dish.
- Arrange the Hungry Jack Flaky Biscuits on top of the mixture, one at a time.
- Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 30 minutes or until the biscuits are browned.
Tips & Substitutions
For a richer flavor, consider using homemade cream of mushroom soup instead of canned. Feel free to substitute the mixed vegetables with fresh or frozen options like peas, carrots, or corn. If you prefer a heartier dish, add some diced potatoes. Ensure the chicken is cooked thoroughly for the best texture. This dish is reminiscent of American recipes that feature comforting, creamy fillings.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the chicken pot pie hot, garnished with fresh herbs like parsley or thyme for added color and flavor. It pairs beautifully with a simple side salad or some crusty bread for a complete meal. Consider serving alongside a light soup, such as Chunky Broccoli Soup, to start your meal off right.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through, about 20 minutes. You can also microwave individual portions, but the biscuits may lose their crispness. For best results, reheat in the oven for a better texture.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use rotisserie chicken instead of cooking my own?
Absolutely! Using rotisserie chicken can save time and still provide great flavor. Simply shred the chicken and mix it into the vegetable mixture before baking. This is a great shortcut that doesn't compromise on taste.
Can I make this dish ahead of time?
Yes, you can prepare the filling a day in advance and assemble it with the biscuits just before baking. Cover the baking dish and refrigerate. When ready to bake, add a few extra minutes to the cooking time to ensure it's heated through.
What can I substitute for the cream of chicken soup?
If you're looking for a substitute, you can use an equal amount of homemade white sauce or another cream soup like cream of celery. This will still provide the creamy texture needed for the dish. You can also use vegetable broth if you want a lighter option.
