Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Vegetables
- 1½ lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- ½ cup low sodium chicken broth
- 3 medium Yukon gold potatoes, diced
- 1 (12 oz) bag frozen mixed vegetables
Soup and Seasonings
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 tsp dried rosemary
- 1 tsp onion powder
Biscuit Topping
- 1 (16 oz) can refrigerated Grands biscuits
- ¼ cup sour cream (for mixing with shredded chicken)
Instructions
- Prepare the slow cooker: Place the boneless, skinless chicken breasts into the slow cooker and pour the low sodium chicken broth over the chicken to keep it moist during cooking.
- Season the chicken: Sprinkle salt, black pepper, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and onion powder evenly over the chicken to infuse it with flavor as it cooks.
- Add soup and vegetables: Pour in the two cans of cream of chicken soup, add the diced Yukon gold potatoes and the bag of frozen mixed vegetables, layering them evenly around the chicken.
- Slow cook the mixture: Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is tender and the potatoes are cooked through.
- Shred and mix chicken: Once cooked, shred the chicken breasts inside the slow cooker and gently stir in the sour cream to create a creamy filling base for the pot pie.
- Bake the biscuits: While the chicken mixture finishes cooking or after the slow cooking is done, bake the refrigerated Grands biscuits according to the package instructions until they are golden brown and flaky.
- Assemble and serve: Serve generous spoonfuls of the creamy chicken and vegetable filling topped with the warm, freshly baked biscuits for a comforting meal.
Notes
- For a thicker filling, you can mash some of the cooked potatoes before shredding the chicken.
- Feel free to use different frozen vegetables such as peas, carrots, or corn based on preference.
- To reduce sodium, use low-sodium cream of chicken soup if available.
- The biscuits can be substituted with homemade biscuit dough or puff pastry if desired.
- Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheated before serving.
