Instructions

Step 3

Arrange the refrigerated buttermilk biscuits on top of the filling, covering as much surface as possible. The biscuits will expand as they bake.

Step 4

Bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly around the edges. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

For best results

  • For extra protein, use Greek yogurt instead of milk for a creamier sauce.
  • If you prefer a thicker filling, whisk 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold water and stir into the mixture before baking.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven.

Variations

  • Swap chicken for turkey or rotisserie chicken for a different flavor.
  • Add 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese on top of the biscuits before baking for a cheesy crust.
  • Use gluten-free cream of chicken soup and gluten-free biscuit mix for a gluten-free version.

Common Questions

Can I use fresh vegetables instead of frozen?
Yes, but you may need to sauté them first to soften. Frozen vegetables are a time-saving shortcut that work perfectly.
Can I make this ahead of time?
You can assemble the casserole (without biscuits) up to 24 hours ahead. Add biscuits just before baking.
How do I store leftovers?
Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven at 350°F until warmed through.
