Ingredients

Scale

Filling

  • 3 cups cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie chicken recommended)
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 cup cream of chicken soup
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • ½ cup chicken broth

Biscuit Topping

  • 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • ¾ cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it reaches the right temperature for baking the pot pie evenly.
  2. Prepare filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Mix everything thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
  3. Transfer filling to dish: Pour the prepared filling mixture into a casserole or pie dish and spread it evenly to create a uniform base for the biscuit topping.
  4. Mix dry ingredients for biscuit topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt to combine the dry ingredients fully.
  5. Incorporate butter: Cut the cold, cubed unsalted butter into the flour mixture using a pastry cutter or fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs, which helps create flaky biscuits.
  6. Add cheese and garlic powder: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder to infuse the topping with Red Lobster-inspired flavor.
  7. Add milk and mix dough: Gradually pour in the milk and stir gently just until the dough comes together. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuits tender.
  8. Top filling with biscuit dough: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken filling, making sure to cover the surface uniformly for an even bake.
  9. Bake the pot pie: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping turns golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
  10. Cool before serving: Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly for easier slicing and better flavor.

Notes

  • You can use rotisserie chicken to save time and add flavor.
  • Feel free to customize the vegetable mix depending on your preferences or seasonal availability.
  • This dish can be assembled ahead and refrigerated for up to two days before baking; if baking from cold, add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
