Chef’s Tips
- Muffin Pan Size: This recipe works best with a 3.5-inch muffin tin. Standard cupcake tins won’t hold enough filling and may overflow.
- Shortcut Tip: Use rotisserie chicken for the shredded chicken to save time and add flavor.
- Customize Your Filling: Add your favorite spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or thyme, to enhance the flavor of the filling.
Ingredients
- 1 cup shredded chicken
Cooked and shredded chicken is the protein base for this recipe. Rotisserie chicken, leftover grilled chicken, or poached chicken all work well. - 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
A medley of peas, carrots, corn, and green beans adds color, texture, and nutrients. Thaw the veggies before mixing to avoid excess moisture. - 1 can (10.5 oz) condensed cream of chicken soup
This provides a creamy, flavorful base for the filling. You can substitute with cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup for variation. - 6 refrigerated jumbo biscuits
These flaky biscuits create the crust for each pot pie. Look for jumbo-sized biscuits to ensure they fit and stretch properly in the muffin tin.
Substitutions
- Vegetables: Swap frozen mixed vegetables for fresh diced veggies or your favorite blend like broccoli, spinach, or mushrooms.
- Dairy-Free Option: Use a dairy-free cream soup to accommodate dietary restrictions.
- Biscuits Alternative: Puff pastry or crescent roll dough can be used instead of biscuits for a different texture.
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and gather your ingredients. - Make the Filling
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, thawed mixed vegetables, and cream of chicken soup. Stir well to ensure all ingredients are evenly coated. - Prepare the Muffin Tin
Lightly grease the cavities of a 3.5-inch muffin tin to prevent sticking. - Shape the Biscuits
Take each jumbo biscuit and flatten it in your hand. Place the flattened biscuit into the muffin tin cavity, gently stretching it up the sides to create a cup. - Fill the Biscuits
Spoon the chicken and vegetable mixture into each biscuit cup, filling it generously. - Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 15-17 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through. - Remove and Serve
Use a fork to carefully lift the pot pies out of the muffin tin. Serve hot and enjoy the flaky, savory goodness.
Storage
- Refrigeration: Store any leftover pot pies in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheating: Reheat in the oven at 350°F for 5-7 minutes or in the microwave for about 1 minute until warmed through.
FAQs
Yes, you can freeze them after baking. Let them cool completely, then wrap individually in foil and store in a freezer-safe bag. Reheat in the oven at 375°F for 20-25 minutes until heated through.
Swap chicken for cooked ground turkey, beef, or even diced ham for a different flavor.
Ensure the vegetables are thawed and drained well before mixing, and avoid overfilling the biscuit cups to prevent excess liquid from pooling.
