Ingredients

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup frozen mixed veggies
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 tablespoon thyme
  • 1/2 tablespoon basil
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic salt
  • 2 cans (10 oz) Pillsbury biscuits

How to Make Chicken Pot Pie Muffins

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a muffin tin with cooking spray. This helps ensure our muffins come out easily and are perfectly golden!

Step 2: Mix the Filling

In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen mixed veggies, shredded cheddar cheese, thyme, basil, onion powder, and garlic salt. Mix until everything is well incorporated. The aroma of the herbs and spices already starts to tempt your taste buds!

Step 3: Prepare the Biscuits

Open the cans of Pillsbury biscuits and separate them. Flatten each biscuit with your hands or a rolling pin until they are large enough to fit into the muffin tin cups, with a bit of overhang to form a little crust.

Step 4: Assemble the Muffins

Press each flattened biscuit into a muffin tin cup, making sure to press them against the sides to form a small bowl. Spoon the chicken mixture into each biscuit cup, filling them generously. The more, the merrier!

Step 5: Bake to Perfection

Bake in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbly. The smell when these are in the oven is incredible!!

Step 6: Cool and Serve

Allow the muffins to cool in the tin for a few minutes before removing. Serve warm, and watch them disappear in no time!

Helpful Tips

  • Shredded Chicken: Use a rotisserie chicken to save time or cook and shred your own chicken breasts for a homemade touch.
  • Mixed Veggies: Feel free to use fresh veggies if you prefer, just make sure to cook them slightly before mixing them in.
  • Cheese: Experiment with different types of cheese like mozzarella or pepper jack for a different flavor profile.

Substitutions and Variations

  • Vegetarian: Substitute the chicken with cooked lentils or chickpeas and use a can of cream of mushroom soup instead.
  • Spicy: Add a diced jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce to the filling for a spicy kick.
  • Dairy-Free: Use a dairy-free cream soup and cheese to make this recipe suitable for those with dairy restrictions.
