I love easy chicken dinners that use rotisserie chicken like my chicken and dumplings, chicken spaghetti, and chicken noodle casserole. At the very top of my list is this chicken cheddar bay biscuit pot pie. It's creamy, cheesy, and only requires you to dirty one pan.

Why Our Recipe Is the Best

  1. We Use Rotisserie Chicken: You get all those yummy seasonings and it's cheap too!
  2. We Add Worcestershire Sauce: This gives it a pop of umami flavor.
  3. We Use Better Than Bouillon Not Broth: This adds so much flavor and tastes like homemade broth. Bonus: Since it's warm it's less likely to make your roux lumpy!
  4. One Pan: Everything cooks and bakes in the same skillet meaning less dishes for you!

Ingredient Notes and Shopping Tips

ingredients including rotisserie chicken carrots, celery, butter, onion better than bouillon, cheese, and cheddar bay biscuit mix.
  • Rotisserie Chicken: One chicken will give you just enough for this recipe. We love Costco's as its delicious and cheap! Always buy it the same day you're going to make this recipe and shred it while its warm if possible.
    • You could also use pre-shredded rotisserie chicken but it will be pricier. Leftover chicken, poached chicken, or even canned will work too.
  • Butter: Use unsalted if you have it as this dish already uses salty ingedients.
  • Celery: I like using the precut/washed celery sticks Be sure to cut all your veggies in around the same size pieces so they cook at the same rate.
  • Heavy Cream: Heavy cream will make the sauce thick, creamy, and less likely to break. You can use half and half in a pinch but avoid milk as the sauce will be thin.
  • Milk: Use whole milk in the biscuits for the best results.

Krystle's Tips: Steal My Culinary School Secrets

  1. Don't Overmix: Overmixing biscuit dough can cause too much gluten to develop making them tough and dense. Mix just until now dry spots remain. It is okay if it looks a little lumpy.
  2. Watch Your Heat: Simmer, don't boil after adding the cream to prevent the sauce from breaking.
