What to Serve Chicken Pot Pie Bake With
Pair this Chicken Pot Pie Bake with a fresh, crisp green salad to add a bright note that balances the creamy filling. For even more comfort, serve it alongside mashed potatoes or fluffy rice. Warm, buttered rolls make an excellent addition, and a cold glass of unsweetened iced tea or lemonade rounds out the meal perfectly. If you want a lighter option, steamed broccoli or roasted carrots are excellent, healthy sides.
Top Tips for Perfecting Chicken Pot Pie Bake
-
Use rotisserie chicken for even faster prep—it’s flavorful and saves cooking time.
-
For extra flavor, add a pinch of garlic powder or dried thyme to the creamy filling.
-
If you prefer a homemade touch, try swapping the canned biscuits for from-scratch dough, or use gluten-free biscuit mix for dietary needs.
-
Make sure the filling is creamy but not soupy; add broth in small increments to control texture.
-
Always bake uncovered so the biscuits brown beautifully—cover if they’re browning too fast.
-
Don’t forget to let the casserole cool a bit before serving for easier slicing.
Storing and Reheating Tips
Leftover Chicken Pot Pie Bake stores perfectly! Allow leftovers to cool to room temperature, then transfer them to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 4 days. To freeze, slice into portions, wrap well, and store in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. To reheat, microwave individual portions until hot, or reheat in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10-15 minutes for best biscuit texture. If reheating from frozen, thaw overnight in the fridge first.
FAQs
How can I make this recipe vegetarian?
Simply swap the chicken for additional veggies (like mushrooms or potatoes) and use Cream of Mushroom Soup instead of chicken soup.
Can I use homemade biscuit dough?
Absolutely! Homemade biscuits will add a scratch-made touch to this recipe. Just arrange them as you would the canned biscuits.
What’s the best way to cook the chicken?
Poaching or baking chicken breasts works well. Or, use rotisserie chicken to keep things quick and easy.
Can I add extra vegetables to the filling?
Of course! Diced potatoes, mushrooms, or bell peppers all make tasty additions.
How do I keep the biscuit topping from getting soggy?
Bake uncovered, and ensure your filling isn’t too runny. The heat of the oven will crisp up the biscuit tops nicely.
