Scale
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
- 1 (10.5-ounce) can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 1 (16.3-ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- Chopped fresh parsley for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Mix the Sauce: In a large bowl, combine the cream of chicken soup, sour cream, milk, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well blended.
- Add Chicken and Biscuits: Fold the cooked shredded chicken into the sauce mixture until evenly coated. Cut each biscuit into quarters, then gently fold these biscuit pieces into the chicken mixture to combine.
- Assemble the Casserole: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese on top for extra cheesy goodness.
- Bake: Bake the casserole uncovered in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through in the center.
- Finish and Serve: Brush the top with melted butter for a rich finish and sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
Notes
- Use rotisserie chicken to save time and add extra flavor.
- Add steamed broccoli or frozen peas for a boost of vegetables.
- Feel free to substitute cheddar cheese with mozzarella or a cheese blend to change up the flavor.
