If you love classic chicken pot pie and those famous cheddar bay biscuits, this recipe is about to become your new favorite dinner. It combines a rich, creamy chicken and vegetable filling with a golden, buttery biscuit topping that bakes up perfectly fluffy and full of flavor. It is cozy, comforting, and simple enough for a weeknight but special enough to serve to family and friends.


Servings: 6–8

Prep Time: 15 minutes

Bake Time: 30–35 minutes


Ingredients:


Biscuit Topping

1 box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (including seasoning packet)

¾ cup cold water

½ cup shredded cheddar cheese


Chicken Pot Pie Filling

⅓ cup butter

1 small onion, finely chopped

1 tablespoon minced garlic

⅓ cup all-purpose flour

½ cup milk

1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth

2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie works great)

1 (12 oz) bag mixed vegetables, steamed

½ teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon black pepper


Instructions:


Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.


In a large bowl, combine the biscuit mix and seasoning packet. Stir in cold water and shredded cheddar cheese just until combined. Do not overmix. Set aside.


In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add chopped onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened and translucent.

Stir in minced garlic and cook for 30 seconds, just until fragrant.


Sprinkle in the flour and stir continuously for 1–2 minutes to create a smooth roux.


Gradually whisk in the milk and chicken broth, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens into a creamy sauce (about 3–5 minutes).


Stir in salt, pepper, shredded chicken, and steamed mixed vegetables. Simmer for 2–3 minutes until heated through.


Pour the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.


Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough over the top, gently spreading slightly but leaving some gaps for a rustic look.


Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through. If the top browns too quickly, loosely tent with foil during the last 10 minutes.


Brush warm biscuits with melted butter mixed with a pinch of garlic powder and dried parsley for that classic Cheddar Bay flavor boost.


Let rest for 5–10 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set.
