Easy chicken pot pie made with biscuits instead of a traditional crust. This budget meal is definitely a family favorite!
I just love a good old fashioned chicken pot pie, especially during the colder months. Seriously, nothing screams comfort food like a homemade chicken pot pie. The hot creamy pie filling with juicy chicken meat, and mixed vegetables. It just doesn’t get any better. I personally love all types of chicken pot pie (even the little frozen ones… no shame in my game). However, When I make chicken pot pies, I like to keep it easy. Instead of using crust, I prefer to make chicken pot pie with biscuits.
Canned Biscuits: The Secret Ingredient to Quick and Easy Chicken Pot Pie
Yup biscuits. Preferably canned biscuits, because it takes less time. I also use cream of chicken soup & mixed vegetables for my chicken pot pie. Using these easy ingredients save me time, and money. So it’s a win, win!
This easy chicken pot pie with biscuits recipe is one of my family favorites. Although It’s made with vegetables, I usually serve it with more veggies on the side.

How easy is this recipe! A comfort dish for sure, perfect for a quick winter supper. I love the addition of cheese to this dish. Pinned. Thanks for sharing. xoxo
Thanks so much Mary!!
Could you tell me please. Your recipe says instead of pastry you say biscuits. What sort biscuits.
Hi Margaret. Regular Canned Biscuits. Buttermilk biscuits will work fine.
Yes, try a different kind next time 🙂
Love it. I just unthawed some turkey from Christmas and used it and it’s delicious.
I cook many of your recipes. I just did this one tonight. My family loved it. Nice, quick and easy recipe. I added peppers and onions. Thank you!
Thanks for trying!
Chicken Pot Pie with Biscuits
My family loved this! We have had it three times since i found he recipe it easy and fast after working all day, thank you so much!
Thanks for trying!
GREAT recipe for a working mommy! Tammy family LOVED IT! Thanks! Your recipes are great!
I have used several kinds of canned biscuits now for this recipe. Seems the “ buttermilk” style biscuits do pretty good. The “original” ones don’t do well. I agree this recipe is on point
Super yummy! I used buttermilk biscuits like recommended, and had a similar issue to others, the bottoms of the biscuits would not cook. So half way through I flipped the biscuits over and that worked really well. Makes good leftovers too!
I love this recipe! I’m thinking about making it for my sister who recently had a baby, would we be able to freeze this before baking?
Hi Mary! I never froze it before, I’m sorry.
Thanks for posting this. My mom had a version of this in the hospital this summer and I’ve been trying to find a recipe ever since.
Making this tonight! looks so good!! will try adding rice or maybe putting it over some egg noodles.
I made this tonight and it was so good and easy. I used large biscuits and just used one can of 8 and it worked perfect! Will definitely be making this again soon.
This recipe was delicious! I will definitely make it again.
Thank you!
This recipe is delicious! My 28 years old son eat most of it. Next time I will hide some for me and me only.
How my gosh this happened to me too! Was such a pain! Just when I thought dinner was ready…. Nope!
Wish I would have read your comment before!
Hi Rosie, if I use grands biscuits, do I use 8 instead of 16 biscuits?
Yes, you’d just use the 8. Great question.
Absolutely love your personality! I made this dish for my family just now and they love it. I’m not a big fan of pot pie but you may have changed my mind! Will be trying more recipes!
I used Cresent rolls instead of biscuits. I rolled the whole thing over the top and let it cook
Thank you so much luv!!! I appreciate you trying my recipe.
I’ve been making this a lot lately, probably too much but my boyfriend rather likes it
Made last and it was wonderful. I boiled my chicken to shredded it, and used seasoning and some of the boiling water for flavor! Great hit at my house
Easy and delicious!
Delicious! I’ve made it twice already and it’ll be a frequent go-to for an easy meal!
Would canned vegetables be ok instead of frozen?
For best results, stick to the ingredients listed.
3 days after Thanksgiving and the whole family is sick. Needed something mild on the tummy and easy for sick mom to make. I used canned chicken, canned peas and carrots, skipped the cheese (sorry but something very wrong about cheese in a pot pie, maybe I’m just old fashioned) and the can of soup. Had a tube of biscuits in the fridge so thankfully everything was on hand. Threw it all together with little effort and it’s baking now. Thank you for this recipe, my sick household appreciates it!
You’re so sweet Abby! Thanks so much for the lovely feedback!
Had to add- you have a beautiful smile, and the rest of your recipes look amazing!
My whole family loved it. I also added a can of diced potatoes. Next time I’ll cook the biscuits separate since they didn’t cook evenly for me. But definitely making it again
Might be a silly question., but I’m going to try this tonight. Do you cook the biscuits separate or lay them on top?
Hi Hannah, That’s not a silly question. You can cook them separate, and add on top once done. This may actually be better, since some people are saying that their biscuits come out raw if not cooked before. Happy Holidays!
Well my biscuits came out raw, I used two cans of buttermilk biscuits and they are bigger. I’ve had to put it back in two times and it still is partly doughy. Don’t know what I did wrong but it smells good
Hi Jennifer! This seems to be a common issue. I’ve been recommending that people bake the biscuits for about 5-7 minutes before, then placing it on top of the pot pie mixture, and baking as directed. I apologize for the inconvenience.
Do you just add the cream of chicken soup by itself or with water?
Thank you for answering everyone’s questions.
Theresa
Hello Theresa. No, I just use what is listed 🙂
Loved this recipe! I had the same issue with the biscuits being raw on the bottom. I will definitely try to cook the biscuits for a few mins before and then add them. My husband and son loved this recipe! It is for sure a keeper!
I have made this twice now and it is a huge family favorite. I haven’t had any issues with the biscuits not being cooked thru but I did read all concerns before making and cut my biscuits smaller (used Grands Flakey Buttermilk, each cut in 8) Reminded me of a cross between potpie and chicken and dumplings. I even had some left over the last time and froze it all together. When I took it out of the freezer, I pried off the biscuits, warmed the base in the microwave, put the biscuits back on top and popped in the oven to warm back up. Came back just like fresh!
Thanks so much for the feedback. XOXO
Excellent! Followed the recipe, precooking the biscuits. Final result was they browned up beautifully, vegetables still popped. Very tasty.
Awesome recipe! Glad to have read reviews. I added a little extra garlic (personal preference) and also some Italian seasoning blend for more flavor. Also, I used the grands biscuits and only needed one container since the are bigger! I flipped them halfway through which eliminated the soggyness of the biscuit dough at the end! It’s so yummy and filling and I make this dish quite often!
This is delicious. I will definitely make again. Could I get the nutritional information please?
Love this recipe! So simple and delicious. My family continually asks me to make it weekly!
This sounds yummy! I use a cream of chicken soup mix for my chicken & dumplings. It’s also a family favorite!
DELICIOUS
DELICIOUS
Very good! The bottom on the biscuits were soggy and not cooked. I flipped them over to finish cooking. Not the prettiest presentation, but yummy weeknight meal. 🙂
Are you supposed to add water to the cream of chicken cans?
Hello. No, I didn’t add water.
I made this a while ago for my husband. And it was a big hit! Family is coming up an needed the recipe to make for them! Thank you!
Hi Kat! Thanks so much or trying my recipe! XOXO
What a fantastic idea for chicken pot pie. We loved it.
It tastes really good! The biscuits take forever tho. Turned into a 45 min meal. Next time I may cook them all the way by themselves and add them on at the end.
Absolutely Delicious!! Very easy recipe, the only thing I did different was I cubed some potatoes and when done mixed them in with everything else.
Would definitely make it again…
Hi! When do you add the minced garlic?
Hello! You can add it during step #3
I made this for one person (I live with my cat Sweetie) I halved the recipe and it turned out amazing! It’s enough for a couple of days as long as I have it for lunch and dinner. It tastes as good as it looks!! I’m glad I found this tasty and filling warm up and comforting dish!! Thank you for sharing!!
Tasted delicious! After having to flip the biscuits part way through, I got the idea of next time trying a stuffing on the top. I will definitely use this recipe for my Thanksgiving leftovers.
Thanks for sharing!
This needed to cool way longer than 25 minutes for me, about 30-40.
Love the idea to toss the cut up biscuits in butter and cook a little before put on the pot pie mixture!! So smart because the bottoms don’t get cooked and you end up turning them! Brilliant!!
I love your recipes, easy to follow! perfect for this time of year!
Was very good! Only thing I didn’t read was the comments saying the bottoms of the biscuits weren’t done. I flipped them over and let them cook a bit longer, no big deal. Definitely a keeper.
Very easy to make and so delicious!
it was a huge hit in my household! they loved it. I loved that it was super easy & didn’t take long!
This is SO good! There’s only two of us so it fed us for days but we didn’t mind, it makes amazing leftovers! Definitely adding to our rotation.
Great recipe! I love chicken pot pie. I saved the drizzle step and used buttery biscuits. I used a ceramic dish instead of glass and it did not get as hot so recommend using glass. If I use ceramic again I’m going to try baking the mix for 10 minutes before adding the pre-baked bicuits.
Loves how easy this is! I’ve already made it twice!
Looks delicious going to make tonight, but I don’t see where you add the garlic?
Hello, you would add it in step 3.
Making it I put the biscuits on the bottom lol and accidentally put the mixture on top lol hope it turns out good
I am making this tonight! I saw your recipes for smothered recipes. Do you have a recipe for smothered deer steak?
Hi there! I don’t have any deer recipes. Sorry.
Great family meal. Easy and delicious. Recipe is easy to follow. Definitely will be making this again and again.
This recipe looks so good however I recommend cooking the biscuits completely before cutting them and adding them on top. The biscuits were still doughy after cooking them for almost 40 minutes
I made this for dinner and was delicious. Even my picky ass kids liked it. I baked the biscuits for 7 minutes and placed ontop the mixture and it turned nice and golden brown. Thank you.❤️❤️
Thanks so much for trying my recipe!
Very simple and very delicious!!!
Delicious! I actually changed a few things from another recipe and added cream cheese and a little heavy cream to the gravy. I sauteed chopped celery, onions and red pepper in 2 T of butter, added 2 T of flour and a cup or two of chicken broth to make a gravy instead of one of the cans of cream of chicken soup. Then to make it creamier I added 4 ounces of cream cheese and some heavy cream. It was so good. Thanks for sharing the recipe. 🙂
Tried this recipe tonight and both myself and my husband loved it (the toddler is a harder sell). My only issue was that 16 biscuits was way too many and they couldn’t all fit on the 9×13 pan. Next time I’ll either do just 8 or 12. Other than that, very good and will make again!
Make today and it was amazing and so easy! Definitely making again
Literally the best thing ever!!!!! It’s a rainy day and this is so heartwarming and yummmyyy! So simple to make as well!
Wish I could show yall a picture! Ughhhh so goodd
YAYYYY!!! Glad that you love it as much as I do! XOXO
LOVED IT!!!! VERY EASY & SIMPLE !! THE FAMILY LOVED IT!!! I USED THE BIG CANS OF MIXED VEGGIES (2) AND ADDED ANOTHER CAN OF CREAM OF CHICKEN SOUP. BAKED BISCUITS FOR SEVEN MNUTES. I USED THE BIG SOUTHERN HOMESTYLE GRAND BISCUITS IT DIDNT TAKE TWO CANS 16 BISCUITS IF USE BIG CANS OF BISCUIT AND CUT UP IN QUARTERS ONE WILL BE ENOUGH . I HAD FIVE BISCUITS LEFT .
Love your recipes. Thanks
My family absolutely loves this recipe!!!! Very inexpensive and comfort food! YUMMMMY!
Loved this!! It’s a nightmare trying to find a meal all 3 of my children will eat AND enjoy; this recipe right here had them stuffing their faces and asking for seconds! Thank you Rosie!
Absolutely loved this! I added rice and used the layered butter biscuits. Will definitely be making this again!
