Directions
-
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). This is a crucial first step to ensure a beautifully cooked pot pie.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Use a spoon or spatula to mix until everything is thoroughly combined.
-
Transfer the filling to your casserole or pie dish, spreading it evenly. The filling should be thick and comforting, ready to be topped with the biscuit layer.
-
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the biscuit topping. This will ensure your biscuits rise perfectly.
-
Cut in the cold butter using a fork or pastry cutter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. The cold butter is a secret that makes the biscuits flaky and tender.
-
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder. The addition of cheese brings that Red Lobster goodness to your dish.
-
Gradually add the milk to the mixture, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can lead to dense biscuits.
-
Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the chicken filling, ensuring that the mixture is evenly covered. This step is essential for a balanced bite where every scoop includes both filling and biscuit.
-
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly. The sight and smell of this dish baking will be tremendous.
-
Allow it to cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoying it slightly cooled enhances the flavors and makes it easier to serve.
