Skillet Chicken and Biscuit Pot Pie

A creamy, chicken and vegetable studded filling is topped with biscuit pieces and baked until bubbly and golden brown. This family-friendly Skillet Chicken and Biscuit Pot Pie is an easy, comforting weeknight dinner choice.

I was recently informed by one of my boys that I have not made enough chicken pot pies in his lifetime. I thought this was a very wise observation on his part so I set upon changing that by whipping up this super easy chicken and biscuit inspired version that I think you’re all gonna love.

It’s easy as all get out thanks to a trusty store-bought rotisserie chicken and a canister of buttermilk biscuit dough. But most importantly, it is really, really good. As a matter of fact, I believe that chicken-pot-pie-deprived child of mine’s exact words after he tried it were “I’m obsessed”.

I’m hoping you will be too!

The traditional pot pie filling includes the usual suspects – onion, carrot, celery, and peas, but I also added some frozen corn. The fun thing with recipes like this is that you can add in any veggies your family loves.

I think mushrooms or chopped broccoli florets would both be a fabulous addition.

It’s made from start to finish in one 12″ skillet; starting out on the stove top and finishing off in the oven to create the golden brown biscuit crust.

Check out the quick video in this post to see how it’s done.
