    Chicken Pot Pie is my VERY FAVORITE thing. I love it so much I don’t even mind making a from-scratch, two-crust pie (okay, I buy the crust).
    Unfortunately, in my household of three, I’m the only one who will eat it. Makes me very sad…
    No way am I going through that much effort just for me.
    Along the same lines of this recipe is creamed chicken and biscuits, another fave for me. It is tolerated by the rest of the family – they are too picky.

    Love the idea of the biscuit mix! I wanted to tell you that the enchilada recipe is so easy. I love enchiladas, as well. I NEVER made them, I figured it was too complicated. That recipe is NOT complicated, at all. So, enjoy! Thanks for sharing the recipe and joining us for Tempt My Tummy Tuesday.

    This is too funny! In our house, b/c of DH, this is NOT chicken pot pie! Chicken pot pie is what I call chicken n dumplings!!! But this does look good So it’s a “rule” here that I can’t call what you are making chicken pot pie.. funny huh?

    Thank you so much for this quick and easy recipe! I love pot pie but always had “issues” with making the crust. Our leftover can biscuits from breakfast will be perfect for this. Keep up your great work!

    This is the way I always do it, too. I LOATHE making pie crust, though I adore eating it. Biscuits are just as yummy in this application, though. 🙂

    when I make this I add the dumplings to the casserole dish with all the other ingredients, then place a pie shell over top. I have round baking dishes and this works really well.

    Love the recipe, thanks for sharing.
    have a wonderful day

    I make this almost all the time now. It’s so much quicker than pie crust!! And it’s yummy, reduces the crust to one biscuit and everyone likes it!!

    I make this ame thing, but here’s my crust recipe for a 9×13 pan…

    I use the Walmart or Aldi brand instead of Bisquick:
    3 cups baking mix
    1 c. milk
    3 eggs

    stir together, pour over chicken and veges and sprinkle with cheese.

    Bake 30 min at 350, yum 🙂

    Stephanie’s husband must be from the Philadelphia – South Jersey area where I, too, have always called what is known in the South as chicken & dumplings chicken potpie. I can still go to a couple of restaurants here that sell that kind of potpie. Anything all mixed together with a topping or a crust is just pie. Chicken pie, meat pie, beef pie, turkey pie. LOL Talk about confusing!!! But, this does look very good and very easy!!

    I know this is an older post, but I just discovered your blog 😉 I made this for dinner tonight, and it was a HIT, but any suggestions on biscuits that don’t cook through? I used canned biscuit dough, and it was raw on the bottom 🙁

    I tried to look up your recipe for the biscuits you use here, and it sent me to a home decor site. LOL!! If I used the recipe for drop biscuits from Better Homes and Gardens, do you think it would turn out as well??

      Yes, I’m sure it would work great.

    Yes, it did work great. I used my recipe for chicken pot pie (no offense, but I love mine) and chicken leg quarters. I have found this to be the cheapest way to go for my family of 7. I buy a big bag of chicken leg quarters, bake them, and then pull off all the meat and stretch it for two meals. I season the skin when I make them because all of my children love the skin and I would just throw it out otherwise. I also just used a bag of frozen mixed veggies. I always keep mixed veggies on hand in the freezer and I find that easier than trying to have fresh one on hand. It was a big hit and because of the biscuits, I believe it stretched further than with using pie crusts. Thank you!

    I found this recipe and was excite because it seemed quick and easy. It was until I ran into a problem. Even after 45min of baking the middle and bottoms of the biscuits were still raw, not wet for the soup but actually raw. I had to flip them all over so that they would cook and then it wasnt much a of crust but biscuits on top. 🙁
