Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Soup Base
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of celery soup
Vegetables and Seasoning
- 12 oz frozen mixed vegetables
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder (divided)
- 2 teaspoons onion powder (divided)
- 2 teaspoons black pepper (divided)
Biscuit Topping
- 1 (16.3 oz) can homestyle biscuits or homemade drop biscuits
Instructions
- Prepare Crock Pot: Spray the crockpot liner with non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Lay the chicken breasts evenly in the bottom of the crockpot.
- Season the Chicken: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper over the chicken to season it thoroughly.
- Add Soups: Pour the cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup over the seasoned chicken, spreading it to cover all pieces.
- Add Vegetables and Season Again: Evenly spread the frozen mixed vegetables over the soup layer. Then sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper on top of the vegetables for added flavor.
- Slow Cook the Mixture: Cover the crockpot with its lid and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender enough to shred easily.
- Bake Biscuits: About 15 to 20 minutes before serving, bake the biscuits according to the package directions until golden and fluffy.
- Shred Chicken: A few minutes before the biscuits finish baking, use two forks to shred the chicken inside the crockpot. Stir well to combine the shredded chicken with the gravy and vegetables for a cohesive filling.
- Serve: Serve the chicken pot pie hot with the freshly baked biscuits on the side or cut in half and topped with the chicken mixture as an individual pot pie.
Notes
- You can substitute chicken thighs for a juicier and more flavorful option.
- Frozen mixed vegetables provide convenience, but fresh vegetables can be used if preferred; just adjust cooking times accordingly.
- If using homemade biscuits, shape and bake them separately according to your recipe.
- For thicker gravy, stir in a cornstarch slurry during the last hour of cooking.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated gently on the stovetop or microwave.
