Description

Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie is the ultimate comfort food that brings a warm, hearty meal to your table with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Chicken Breasts – 2 large or 3 smaller boneless, skinless breasts.
Seasonings – Onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper for flavor.
Cream of Chicken Soup – Use 2 cans; mix & match flavors like cream of chicken with herbs if desired.
Frozen Mixed Vegetables – A bag of carrots, peas, corn, and green beans works perfectly.
Onion – One small sweet onion, finely diced.
Milk or Half and Half – Makes the sauce rich and creamy (half and half is best).
Refrigerated Biscuits – Flaky butter biscuits are ideal, but buttermilk or crescent rolls also work.

Instructions

Begin by placing your chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker. This forms the base of your meal. To amplify the flavor, generously sprinkle onion powder, garlic powder, and black pepper over the chicken. This step is crucial as it sets the stage for the savory notes that will infuse the dish.
Next, it’s time to pour in the cream of chicken soup. The canned soup serves as a rich, creamy base that will tie all the flavors together. Follow this by adding your frozen mixed vegetables and finely diced onion; the veggies bring color, nutrients, and a delightful crunch. Finally, drizzle in the milk or half and half, enhancing the creaminess of your sauce.
Secure the lid on your slow cooker and set it to cook. You can choose to cook on LOW for 6–8 hours or on HIGH for 3–4 hours, depending on your schedule. Allow the mixture to bubble away, transforming raw ingredients into a delectable meal. The longer cooking time on LOW renders the chicken tender and allows all the ingredients to meld beautifully.
As the pot pie cooking time comes to an end, around 20 minutes before you plan on serving, preheat the oven and bake your refrigerated biscuits according to the package instructions. Freshly baked biscuits will provide a delightful, flaky topping to your pot pie.
Once your chicken is thoroughly cooked, take two forks and shred the chicken right in the slow cooker. This process not only makes the chicken easy to serve but also allows the meat to soak in the flavorful sauce. Stir everything together until it’s well mixed, ensuring every bit of stuffing is coated in that creamy goodness.
Carefully spoon the creamy chicken mixture over your warm, flaky biscuits. The contrast of the hot filling with the biscuits not only enhances the dish’s visual appeal but also creates a harmony of textures with every bite. Your Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie is ready to savor!

Notes

For an even creamier sauce, consider adding a dollop of sour cream or cream cheese just before serving. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, making an excellent meal prep option.
