How to Make Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

Ingredients:

3 cups cooked chicken, diced (You can use rotisserie chicken to save time.)
1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (Peas, carrots, and corn.)
1 cup cream of chicken soup
1 teaspoon garlic powder (For filling and biscuit topping.)
1 teaspoon onion powder
to taste salt and pepper
1/2 cup chicken broth
2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup unsalted butter (Cold and cubed.)
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
3/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon garlic powder (For a Red Lobster touch.)

Directions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and chicken broth. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Transfer the filling to your casserole or pie dish, spreading it evenly.
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the biscuit topping. Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder. Gradually add the milk, mixing just until combined. Do not overmix.
Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the chicken filling, making sure to cover it evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Allow to cool for a few minutes before serving.

How to Serve Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

Serve this pot pie warm, straight from the oven. It’s great on its own, but you can add a fresh side salad or some steamed veggies for extra nutrition. Each bite will comfort you, making it a great dish for family gatherings or a cozy night in.

How to Store Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

You can store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, place it in the oven at 350°F (175°C) until warmed through. You can also microwave individual portions, but the biscuit topping might lose some crispiness.

Tips to Make Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

For a quicker option, use store-bought rotisserie chicken.
Don’t skip chilling the butter; it makes the biscuits fluffier.
Feel free to adjust the vegetables based on your family’s preferences.
If you love spices, add a dash of paprika or cayenne to the filling for extra flavor.

Variation

You can easily switch up this recipe by using different proteins like turkey or even a mix of vegetables to make it vegetarian. Additionally, try using different types of cheese such as mozzarella or pepper jack for a fun twist.
