Chicken & Seasonings
- 2 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder (divided)
- 2 teaspoons onion powder (divided)
- 2 teaspoons black pepper (divided)
Soup Base
- 2 (10.5 oz) cans cream of chicken soup
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of celery soup
Vegetables
- 12 oz frozen mixed vegetables
Biscuit Topping
- 1 (16.3 oz) can homestyle biscuits or homemade drop biscuits
- Prepare the crockpot: Spray the crockpot liner with non-stick spray to prevent sticking. Lay the chicken breasts or thighs evenly at the bottom of the crockpot.
- Season the chicken: Sprinkle 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper over the chicken to infuse it with flavor.
- Add soups: Pour the cream of chicken soup and cream of celery soup evenly over the seasoned chicken, creating a creamy base.
- Top with vegetables and seasonings: Evenly spread the frozen mixed vegetables on top of the soup layer. Then sprinkle the remaining 1 teaspoon each of garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper over the vegetables.
- Cook the chicken: Place the crockpot lid securely and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours, until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and tender enough to shred easily with forks.
- Bake the biscuits: About 15 to 20 minutes before serving, bake the biscuits according to package directions or your homemade recipe to ensure they are warm and golden.
- Shred the chicken and combine: Just a few minutes before the biscuits finish baking, use two forks to shred the cooked chicken directly in the crockpot. Stir well so the shredded chicken is coated with the creamy gravy and mixed vegetables.
- Serve: Serve the hot chicken pot pie mixture with the warm biscuits either on the side or cut in half and topped with the chicken and vegetable mixture for a delightful homestyle meal.
