Creating this Easy Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuits is a breeze if you follow these simple steps:
1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Cook the Filling: In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the flour and whisk it into a smooth paste. Cook for about 1 minute until bubbling.
3. Add Liquids: Gradually whisk in the chicken broth and milk. Continue cooking until the mixture thickens, about 3-5 minutes.
4. Season and Combine: Stir in the garlic powder, onion powder, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Add the shredded chicken and mixed vegetables, stirring well to combine.
5. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the chicken and vegetable mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading it evenly.
6. Prepare the Biscuits: Open the can of biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit in half, creating small rounds.
7. Top the Filling: Lay the biscuit halves evenly over the top of the chicken filling, slightly overlapping them.
8. Bake: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
9. Cool Slightly: Once baked, let the pot pie cool for about 5-10 minutes before serving. This helps the filling set.
These steps will lead you to a delicious meal that’s incredibly easy to make!
