Ingredients
Crust
- 2 cans flaky layers biscuits
Filling
- 2 cans cream of chicken soup
- 2 cans cooked chicken (or 2 cups fresh, cooked chicken, shredded)
- 1 bag frozen mixed vegetables, thawed (approximately 12 oz)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it is ready for baking the pot pies.
- Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, shredded chicken, and thawed mixed vegetables. Season to taste with salt, pepper, or herbs of your choice, mixing well to create a creamy filling.
- Assemble the Pot Pies: Open the cans of biscuits and flatten each biscuit slightly. Press each flattened biscuit into the cups of a muffin pan to form a small crust lining the muffin cup.
- Fill the Biscuits: Spoon the chicken, vegetable, and soup mixture into each biscuit-lined muffin cup, filling about three-quarters full to allow room for baking expansion.
- Bake: Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the biscuit crusts are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
- Serve: Allow the mini pot pies to cool for a few minutes in the pan before carefully removing them. Serve warm and enjoy a hearty, comforting meal.
Notes
- Use fresh cooked chicken or canned chicken depending on preference and availability.
- Thaw frozen mixed vegetables beforehand for even cooking.
- To make the crust more golden, brush the biscuits with a little melted butter before baking.
- These pot pies can be made ahead and refrigerated, then reheated in the oven for best results.
- Feel free to add your favorite herbs like thyme or parsley for extra flavor.
