Chicken Pot Pie

This recipe is extremely quick and simple. Bonus, it tastes amazing!

I found this recipe one day a while back when I was trying to find a quick simple supper idea. I came across this recipe and knew right away I had to make it. I love chicken pot pie but I usually don’t have pie crust around and hate how long it usually takes to make a full sized regular chicken pot pie. The thing I love most about this recipe is that you can do single servings and it stores very nicely in the fridge. Plus, it has biscuits and I love biscuits. One of my favorite cooking hacks is buying rotisserie chicken from the deli part of the grocery store and deboning it and freezing the meat for a different day. Another freezer hack I use all the time is always having chopped onions in the freezer. (I’ll do another blog post at a later time talking about all my freezer hacks)

Here’s what you need and how to make it.

Ingredients needed
  • Your favorite biscuits
  • 2 cups of shredded rotisserie chicken (or just shredded chicken breasts)
  • 1 1/2 cups chicken stock
  • 1 cup milk (whole is better but I didn’t have any so I used 2% and half & half)
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
  • 1 chopped small onion (one of my hacks, I used my chopped frozen onions)
  • 1 bag of frozen mixed vegetables of your liking
  • 3 tablespoons of butter
  • 2 tablespoons of parsley

Directions to goodness

  1. Prepare your biscuits according to package.
  2. In a large mason jar, shake together chicken stock, milk, flour, and poultry seasoning. Add your butter and onions to a large (must be large) saucepan over medium heat and cook until soften, roughly 2 to 3 minutes. Slowly whisk in your milk and mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and let simmer until thickened, roughly 6 to 8 minutes.
  3. Add in your chicken, frozen veggies, and parsley and cook until it is all heated through.
  4. Time to serve. Serve in a bowl with as much salt and pepper your heart desires and top it with a biscuit.

If you give this a try, let me know how you like it!
