Tips for Success

To achieve the best possible results, ensure that your filling is thoroughly cooked and well-seasoned before adding the biscuit dough. Allowing the filling to simmer will help meld the flavors together, resulting in a more complex and satisfying taste. Adding a touch of fresh herbs, like thyme or rosemary, could elevate the flavor profile even further, creating depth in this comforting dish.

When preparing the biscuits, don't overmix the dough; keep it light and airy for the best texture. You want the biscuits to rise beautifully and develop that signature golden-brown crust. Incorporating shredded cheese not only adds flavor but also contributes to that delightful cheesy pull in every biscuit.

For the Cheddar Bay Biscuits

2 cups biscuit mix
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2/3 cup milk
1/4 cup melted butter
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried parsley

Instructions

Prepare the Filling

In a large saucepan, sauté onions and celery until soft. Stir in flour and cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually add chicken broth and cream, whisking until smooth.

Add chicken, mixed vegetables, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Simmer until thickened.

Make the Biscuits

In a mixing bowl, combine biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, milk, melted butter, garlic powder, and parsley. Stir until just combined.

Assemble the Pie

Pour the chicken filling into a greased baking dish. Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the filling.

Bake

Bake at 400°F (200°C) for 25-30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.

Storage and Reheating

If you find yourself with leftovers, you're in for a treat! This Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. When reheating, consider placing it in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) to ensure both the filling and biscuits are warmed evenly, helping maintain the dish's delightful texture.

For longer storage, you can freeze the unbaked assembly or the leftover pie. Bring it to room temperature before baking or reheating. Just remember that the biscuit's texture may change slightly, but the flavors will still be amazing!

Serving Suggestions
