BISCUIT TOPPED CHICKEN CASSEROLE

There must be a hundred ways to make a chicken and veg casserole topped with biscuits out there. This is mine. It is super easy and goes over well with the whole family!

Categories     Casseroles

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 small chicken breasts
1 can(s) cream of chicken soup
1 lb mix vegetables, frozen
1 1/2 c chicken cooking water
4 oz cream cheese
1/4 tsp poultry seasoning
salt and pepper to taste
2 Tbsp chopped parsley (optional but totally worth it)
1 can(s) refridgerated biscuits

Steps:

  • 1. Cover chicken in water in a dutch oven and stew till cooked and tender over low-medium heat. Approx. 1 hr
  • 2. Remove cooked chicken to plate to cool and shred. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the chicken cooking liquid. Put shredded chicken back in dutch oven.
  • 3. Add cream of chicken, water, cream cheese, and bag of frozen mixed vegetables. Add seasonings. Bring to boil and then lower heat and simmer, while stirring to combine and cook the veg.
  • 4. Turn off heat and add parsley, mix well.
  • 5. Pour chicken mixture into 2 quart casserole and lay biscuits on top. Bake at 350 until biscuits are browned on top and casserole is bubbly.
  • 6. Serve with salad for complete meal. *Note that you do not need to buy the large biscuits for this casserole. I buy the regular sized ones, which are pretty small, for 67 cents and they turn out perfect and fluffy and much bigger than if you just baked them. This makes a fairly small casserole but feeds my family of five with little or not left overs. Also, using bagged chicken breasts is fine with dish because once you shred them and mix them with the rest you get a fair amount of chicken per share.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chicken. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs are usually best for this dish. If you use bone-in chicken, you'll need to cook it longer.
  • Don't overcook the chicken. Chicken is cooked through when it reaches an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Use a flavorful sauce. The sauce is what really makes this dish. Be sure to use a sauce that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't skimp on the vegetables. Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to this dish. Be sure to use a variety of vegetables that you enjoy.
  • Make sure the biscuits are fluffy. Fluffy biscuits are the perfect topping for this casserole. Be sure to follow the recipe carefully when making the biscuits.
  • Serve the casserole hot. This casserole is best served hot out of the oven. Be sure to let it cool for a few minutes before serving so that the biscuits don't fall apart.

Conclusion:

Biscuit-topped chicken casserole is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its creamy sauce, tender chicken, and fluffy biscuits, this casserole is sure to be a hit with the whole family. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy dinner recipe, give this biscuit-topped chicken casserole a try.
