Ingredients
Scale
Here’s what you’ll need to create this delicious Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie:
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs: Chicken breasts offer a leaner option, while thighs add a bit more richness and flavor.
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup: These provide the creamy base that brings everything together.
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of celery soup: Adds another layer of flavor and creaminess.
- 12 oz frozen mixed vegetables: A convenient and colorful blend of your favorite veggies.
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder, divided: For a subtle hint of garlic throughout the dish.
- 2 teaspoons onion powder, divided: Enhances the savory flavor.
- 2 teaspoons black pepper, divided: Adds just the right amount of spice.
- 1 (16.3 oz) can homestyle biscuits or homemade drop biscuits: The perfect topping to complete your pot pie.
Instructions
- Prepare the Crock Pot: Start by spraying the crock pot liner with non-stick spray to ensure nothing sticks during the cooking process.
- Layer the Chicken: Lay the boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs in the bottom of the crock pot. Season them evenly with 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
- Add the Creamy Base: Pour the cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup over the chicken, spreading it out to cover the meat completely. This will create a rich, creamy sauce as it cooks.
- Add the Vegetables: Next, spread the frozen mixed vegetables over the top of the soups. Sprinkle the remaining garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper over the vegetables for added flavor.
- Cook: Place the lid on the crock pot and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours. The chicken should be thoroughly cooked and easy to shred when done.
- Prepare the Biscuits: About 15 to 20 minutes before serving, bake the biscuits according to the package directions. This will give you just enough time to finish the dish.
- Shred the Chicken: A few minutes before the biscuits are ready, use two forks to shred the chicken directly in the crock pot. Stir everything together so the chicken is evenly coated with the creamy gravy and mixed with the vegetables.
- Serve: Serve the chicken pot pie with a warm biscuit on top or on the side. Alternatively, you can split the biscuits in half and spoon the chicken mixture over the top for a more traditional presentation.
