1bag (12 oz)Frozen peas and carrots
1teaspoonGarlic powder
1teaspoonOnion powder
1/2teaspoonBlack pepper
1can (10.5 oz)Cream of chicken soup
2cupsChicken broth
1box (11.36 oz)Cheddar Bay Biscuit MixReserve the seasoning packet for later
2cupsWhole milk
1/2cupShredded cheddar cheese
1packetSeasoning packet from biscuit mix
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with non-stick spray or a little melted butter.
Pour the melted butter into the bottom of the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
In a large bowl, layer the shredded chicken evenly over the butter. Next, sprinkle the frozen peas and carrots over the chicken.
Sprinkle garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper evenly over the top.
In another bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth and combined.
Pour the soup mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetables in the baking dish. Do not stir.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (dry mix only), milk, and shredded cheddar cheese until just combined. The mixture should be thick but pourable.
Gently pour the biscuit batter over the soup layer, spreading it lightly to cover most of the surface. Again, do not mix.
Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons melted butter over the top and sprinkle with the reserved biscuit seasoning packet for extra flavor.
Bake uncovered for 45–50 minutes, until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling at the edges.
Remove from the oven, let rest for a few minutes, then serve piping hot. Enjoy!
Notes
For a lighter version, substitute half-and-half for milk or use a reduced-fat cream of chicken soup. You can also swap out peas and carrots for your favorite frozen veggie blend.
