Layered with homemade cheesy garlic biscuits and filled with chicken and vegetables, Chicken Pot Pie Casserole is a hearty, flavorful meal that takes pot pies to a new level! It puts the traditional pot pie to shame. There will be no empty stomachs after you serve this deliciously comforting meal!
Ingredients & Substitutions
Biscuits: I have homemade biscuit dough from my Cheesy Garlic Biscuits to use for this recipe. (They are seriously SO GOOD.) However, you could use store-bought biscuits in a pinch. Just be aware that the cooking time may vary if using store-bought.
Vegetables: I loaded this casserole up with all of my favorite vegetables! You could substitute or omit any of them if you prefer. Feel free to customize this base recipe with your favorites.
Chicken Stock: Using chicken stock will make this casserole more rich and flavorful. But, you could certainly use chicken broth if that is what you have on hand.
Chicken: You can use a store-bought rotisserie chicken or a homemade rotisserie chicken. Shredded chicken would also work.
Can I Make This Casserole Ahead of Time?
You can certainly get the vegetables cut up a day or two in advance. And, you could also mix the biscuit dough ahead of time. Store the dough in the refrigerator, wrapped in plastic wrap, for 1-2 days.

I loved this recipe. The biscuits are so good… it is a definite keeper.
I am old and don’t want a lot of work; therefore I buy a big bag of frozen, mixed veggies for my pot pie and add potatoes, more frozen corn and peas. Much simpler. Can anyone tell me if Red Lobster biscuits from mix is good & I don’t know how many it makes. I do love how your chicken pie sounds and I will try it with the above modifications just to make it easier on myself…most of my scratch cooking is over for me…thanks for your recipes.
You can absolutely try it with your modification ideas.
Made this with leftover smoked turkey. Delicious!
Is the ingredient “apple cider” literal cider or is it ACV?
not vinegar
Isn’t all apple cider =vinager? Are you meaning apple juice ?
Nope. Apple Cider is apple cider, not vinegar.
Great Recipe
I’m not a cook but I will give it a try…it’s hard to eat a 40# turkey in a couple of days ?
Looks Great !
I just prepared this for a friend. It looks and smells so good. Thank you for sharing. This is just like a recipe my mom raised us on. We simply called it stew and biscuits. She used leftover roast meat, and prepared the veggies with some broth and such, the stew meat and topped it with homemade biscuits. I make it for my family now and they all love it.
As a short cut we use vegetarian vegetable soup from Campbell’s. Again thanks!
