Canned soup becomes a creamy sauce that binds tender chicken and whatever vegetables you have on hand, while refrigerated biscuit dough bakes into fluffy golden pillows on top.
It’s the kind of flexible recipe that works with leftovers or rotisserie chicken and adapts to whatever veggies need using up.
Perfect for busy weeknights when you need something warm and satisfying without spending hours in the kitchen.
Kitchen Tips
- Bubble first: That initial 15-minute bake heats the filling through so biscuits don’t sink into cold mixture
- Quarter the biscuits: Smaller pieces mean more crispy edges and better coverage across the dish
- Use cooked chicken: Rotisserie, leftover roast, or even canned chicken works; raw chicken needs pre-cooking
- Veggie flexibility: Frozen mixed vegetables are easiest, or use fresh carrots, broccoli, peas, whatever you have
Variations
- Top with shredded cheddar in the last 5 minutes for cheesy biscuit topping
- Swap chicken for turkey (great Thanksgiving leftover use) or cooked ham
- Add a splash of white wine or sherry to the soup mixture for depth
Ingredients
Directions
In a 3 qt baking dish , combine the soup, milk, thyme, and pepper. Stir in the vegetables and chicken or turkey.
Bake at 400℉ (200℃) 15 minutes or until mixture begins to bubble. Meanwhile, cut each biscuit into quarters.
Remove dish from oven; stir. Arrange biscuit pieces over hot chicken mixture. Bake 15 minutes or until golden brown.
VARIATION: Top with melted cheddar or swiss cheese (grated) for the last 5 minutes of baking.
Turkey can be substituted for chicken.
The vegetables which can be used include carrots, broccoli, potatoes, cauliflower, frozen or fresh.
