This Shortcut Chicken Pot Pie is really simple…crescent roll dough on top and bottom. Chicken breasts seasoned with southern style poultry seasoning, frozen peas and carrots, and cream of chicken soup. You could totally use a rotisserie chicken or even seasoned left over chicken.

Steps to make Shortcut Chicken Pot Pie:
  1. Preheat oven to 400°F.
  2. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add chicken breasts to skillet and cook until no longer pink.
  3. Cut chicken into bite size cubes and set aside. *You can also opt to cut up and then cook the already - cubed chicken. I just find the chicken juicier when cooked whole.
  4. Wash, peel, and cut potato into cubes. Microwave for 1-2 minutes.
  5. Cook cubed potatoes and frozen veggies on stovetop according to package directions. Add some extra water and extra time in order to accommodate the addition of the potatoes (dont overcook…you want your potatoes tender and firm). Drain.
  6. In a large bowl, combine soups, milk, thyme, and black pepper. Mix well.
  7. Add veggies and chicken to soup mixture and gently mix together.
  8. Spread evenly in a 4 quart baking dish. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until it begins to bubble. Remove dish from oven and stir.
  9. Open biscuits and arrange on top of casserole. Bake another 15 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown.
  10. Optionally, if you want a nicer presentation, you can opt to cut each biscuit into quarters before placing them on top of the casserole, cutting almost, but not all the way through the biscuit's bottom.
