This chicken and biscuit casserole does require a little bit of work to prepare but it is well worth it. Using a rotisserie chicken and refrigerated biscuits does save a lot of time, and most of the work involved is just the prep work from chopping the chicken and vegetables. What is great about this recipe compared to others is that it does not use any condensed soup. Instead, it uses chicken broth thickened with flour. A few different vegetables are used in this dish including onion, celery, carrots, and peas. You could add additional ingredients as well such as sliced mushrooms. This chicken and biscuit casserole makes a great dinner for any night of the week. Enjoy.

Oh, wow! That looks great! I was excited to see a pot pie recipe that didn’t include cream of something soup! I will definitely be trying this! : )
I have been making my cix n biscuts his way for yrs..my suggestions: skip the sugar, really not needed. And you can used frozen/drained low salt canned veggies if in a real time crunch. Aslo make double batch of cix mixture and freeze for another night!
