Cheddar bay biscuit pot pie is a great family meal that feeds at least four people. It’s a creamy, chicken base with cheesy, garlicky biscuits on top, what’s not to love!
Recipe Highlights
- How does it taste: Cheddar bay biscuit pot pie is a very savory dish. The base is a creamy sauce with poultry seasoning folded in mix veggies and shredded chicken. The cheddar bay biscuit topping is fluffy and brings the pot pie experience full circle that’s crusty then brushed with the classic cheddar bay seasoning. Hints of garlic, parsley and onion in every bit mixed with the savory creamy chicken and mixed vegetables.
- Skill level: A super easy recipe to make. It’s very beginner friendly and most the ingredients are tossed together then baked for the end result. With all the needed ingredients on hand it will be difficult to mess this cheddar bay biscuit pot pie up as long as you keep an eye on the oven while it’s baking.
- Storing: There is quite a bit so there very well may be leftover if you’re not sharing with a big family. No problem! The cheddar bay biscuit pot pie keeps in the fridge for a few days and you won’t have any problem at all freezing it.
Ingredient tips
- Chicken: Shredded chicken is best and it’s not important if you cook and shred yourself or if you purchase a rotisserie on the way home. I chopped the chicken up finely to make sure there are bits of chicken in every bite.
- Vegetables: You can play with different vegetables to your liking. Tip, if you plan to freeze it, do not buy fresh veggies. The cheddar bay biscuit pot pie will taste great the night you serve it but the texture of the fresh veggies will change drastically after you freeze then thaw them. I recommend frozen vegetables not only for the ease but because they are already flash frozen.
- Biscuit mix: Cheddar bay biscuits from the box taste amazing but I suggest adding the suggested seasoning to really give it that pop and flavor to help it shine. You can skip the extras and the recipe will still turn out fine but you’ll not the seasoning in the biscuit mix doesn’t seem like enough to compliment the flavoring of the pot pie portion of the recipe.
Quick variation
Skip making the roux. You can use about 2 cans of cream of chicken soup with about 1 cup of milk to be your base. Mix in the veggies and chicken then you’re good to go.
