Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 3/4 cup chopped leftover chicken (or 1 small fresh chicken breast, fully cooked)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup mixed frozen vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, and green beans, defrosted)
Crust
- 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F to ensure it’s at the ideal temperature for baking the mini pot pies.
- Prepare Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the chopped chicken, mixed vegetables (previously defrosted), and cream of chicken soup. Mix thoroughly to create a creamy, hearty filling.
- Prepare Biscuit Dough: Separate each biscuit from the refrigerated dough package and lightly grease a muffin tin. Place one biscuit into each muffin cup.
- Shape Dough Cups: Using your fingers, carefully press the biscuit dough down into the center of each muffin cup, then gently work it up the sides to form a cup shape that will hold the filling.
- Fill Cups: Spoon approximately 2 tablespoons of the chicken and vegetable filling into each biscuit-lined muffin compartment, filling them evenly.
- Bake: Place the muffin tin in the preheated oven and bake for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the biscuit crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly and hot.
Notes
- Use cooked leftover chicken or alternatively, fully cook a small chicken breast before chopping.
- You can substitute the cream of chicken soup with a homemade white sauce for a fresher taste.
- Defrost frozen vegetables thoroughly to avoid soggy pies.
- Greasing the muffin tin prevents the biscuit dough from sticking and makes removal easier.
- Serve warm for best flavor and texture.
- Store leftovers in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven to maintain crispness.
