Before You Start
Use cooked rotisserie chicken to save time. And don’t overthink it — this recipe is forgiving and family-friendly.

Ingredients
- 3 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- ½ cup frozen corn
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter

Instructions
Step 1: Preheat and prep
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
Step 2: Make the creamy filling
In a large bowl, combine shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, peas, carrots, corn, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Stir until fully coated. The mixture should look thick and creamy, not watery.
Step 3: Spread and smooth
Pour the mixture into your baking dish and spread evenly. You want every bite to have chicken and veggies.
Step 4: Add the biscuit topping
Place biscuits evenly over the top. Don’t press them down — just set them gently on the filling.
Brush the tops with melted butter for that golden finish.
Step 5: Bake
Bake for 25–30 minutes.
You’ll know it’s ready when:
- Biscuits are golden brown
- Filling is bubbling around the edges
- The kitchen smells amazing
Let it sit 5 minutes before serving so it thickens slightly.
