Ingredients

Scale

Filling

3 cups cooked chicken, diced (rotisserie chicken recommended for convenience)
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, and corn)
1 cup cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
1/2 cup chicken broth

Biscuit Topping

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure it’s ready for baking as soon as your pot pie is assembled.
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. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed to create a flavorful filling.
Transfer Filling: Pour and spread the chicken and vegetable mixture evenly into a casserole or pie dish, creating a stable base for your biscuit topping.
Make Biscuit Dough: In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold, cubed unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs, ensuring a flaky biscuit texture.
Add Cheese and Milk: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder, then gradually add the milk, mixing gently just until combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the biscuit dough tender.
Top Filling: Using a spoon, drop dollops of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken filling, covering the surface uniformly to ensure every bite includes the biscuit topping.
Bake: Place the assembled pot pie in the preheated oven and bake for 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is beautifully golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Cool and Serve: Remove the pot pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to allow the filling to set slightly. Serve warm and enjoy this comforting meal.

Notes

Using rotisserie chicken saves preparation time and adds extra flavor.
Frozen mixed vegetables offer convenience, but fresh can be used if preferred.
Do not overmix the biscuit dough to keep the topping flaky and tender.
The garlic powder in both the filling and topping enhances the savory profile and mimics the iconic Red Lobster biscuit flavor.
Let the pot pie cool slightly before serving to avoid burns and to help the filling thicken.
For a richer flavor, substitute chicken broth with low-sodium broth if desired.
