Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 12 oz (340 grams) frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 (16.3 oz, 462 grams) can homestyle biscuits or homemade drop biscuits
Soup Base:
- 2 (10.5 oz, 298 grams) cans cream of chicken soup
- 2 (10.5 oz, 298 grams) cans cream of celery soup
Seasonings:
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 2 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare the crock pot by lightly coating the inner surface with non-stick spray to prevent sticking.
- Position raw chicken breasts at the bottom of the crock pot and generously season with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- Completely blanket the chicken with a layer of cream of chicken and cream of celery soups, ensuring full coverage.
- Distribute frozen mixed vegetables evenly across the soup layer, creating a colorful vegetable landscape.
- Dust the vegetable layer with the remaining spices for an extra flavor boost.
- Secure the crock pot lid and slow cook on low temperature for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-6 hours, allowing the chicken to become tender and easily shreddable.
- Approximately 20 minutes before serving, bake the biscuits according to package instructions until golden and fluffy.
- Moments before serving, use two forks to carefully shred the chicken, mixing it thoroughly with the surrounding gravy and vegetables.
- Plate the chicken pot pie mixture, accompanying it with warm biscuits served either alongside or split and topped with the savory filling.
Notes
- Customize seasonings by experimenting with herbs like thyme, rosemary, or sage for added depth of flavor.
- Reduce sodium by using low-sodium cream soups or making your own homemade cream sauce.
- Swap chicken breasts with chicken thighs for a more tender and juicy result that won’t dry out during long cooking times.
- For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free biscuits and check that cream soups are certified gluten-free.
