Ingredients

Scale

For the Sauce and Filling

  • 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • ½ cup flour
  • 3 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 ½ cups frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 rotisserie chicken, shredded

For the Biscuit Topping

  • 2 tubes biscuit dough (8 biscuits each), total 16 biscuits

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350˚F (180˚C) to ensure it reaches the perfect baking temperature by the time your casserole is ready.
  2. Melt the Butter and Cook Onion: In a large pot over medium-high heat, melt the butter. Add the chopped onion and stir for about 1 minute until softened and fragrant.
  3. Make the Roux: Whisk in the flour constantly to prevent browning and cook for about 1 minute; this helps thicken the sauce later.
  4. Add Liquids and Seasoning: Slowly whisk in the chicken broth, salt, and pepper, continuing to whisk until the mixture is smooth and free of lumps.
  5. Add Cream and Simmer: Stir in the heavy cream and bring the mixture to a light simmer, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  6. Combine Vegetables and Chicken: Add the frozen mixed vegetables and shredded rotisserie chicken to the pot. Stir well until everything is evenly incorporated and heated through.
  7. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the creamy chicken and vegetable mixture into a 9×13-inch (23×33 cm) baking dish, spreading it evenly.
  8. Add Biscuit Topping: Arrange 12 pieces of biscuit dough evenly on top of the mixture. Note that you will have 4 extra biscuits which can be baked separately and served alongside.
  9. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges.
  10. Cool and Serve: Let the casserole cool slightly for a few minutes before serving to let it set and to avoid burns.
  11. Enjoy: Serve warm and enjoy a delicious, creamy, and comforting chicken and biscuit bake!

Notes

  • Extra biscuits can be baked separately per package instructions to serve alongside the casserole or saved for another meal.
  • Using a rotisserie chicken saves time and adds extra flavor, but leftover cooked chicken works perfectly as well.
  • Feel free to substitute mixed vegetables with fresh seasonal vegetables or your favorites.
  • For a thicker gravy, simmer a little longer before adding chicken and vegetables.
  • This dish can be made ahead up to the baking step, then refrigerated and baked when ready.
