Key Ingredients for Crock Pot Pot Pie Chicken

See recipe card below for full list of measurements, ingredients, and instructions.

Boneless, Skinless Chicken Breasts

Chicken breasts are the heart of this dish, becoming juicy and tender as they slow cook. Cut them into large, even chunks so they cook uniformly and shred effortlessly at the end. If you prefer, boneless, skinless thighs add even more flavor and stay super moist, especially after hours in the crock pot.

Frozen Mixed Vegetables

Frozen veggies make this meal as easy as pie-literally! They provide colorful bursts of flavor and nutrition and save time on chopping. You can use classic peas, carrots, corn, and green beans or any blend your family likes. If you have fresh veggies, chop them into bite-sized pieces, and add a bit of extra liquid if needed.

Cream of Chicken Soup

The secret to the irresistibly creamy sauce is cream of chicken soup. It thickens beautifully and binds everything together. You can substitute cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup for a slight twist. For a lighter version, use the reduced-fat kind or make your own homemade cream soup base.

Refrigerated Biscuit Dough

Flaky, golden biscuits transform this crock pot meal into pot pie heaven. Simply layer canned biscuit pieces on top in the last hour, and they'll soak up the savory sauce. Crescent roll dough or even homemade drop dumplings can work as alternative toppings if you prefer.

Poultry Seasoning

A blend of sage, thyme, and other comforting herbs gives this dish its distinctive pot pie flavor. No poultry seasoning? No problem! A dash of dried thyme, sage, and a hint of rosemary will deliver similar warmth and aroma.

Crock Pot Pot Pie Chicken cooking process

Instructions for Crock Pot Pot Pie Chicken

See recipe card below for full list of measurements, ingredients, and instructions.

Prep the Ingredients

Start by cutting the chicken into large bite-sized chunks and dicing your onion. Mince the garlic for even flavor distribution. Open the canned soup, measure out the broth and spices, and cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters.

Layer Ingredients in the Crock Pot

Add the chicken to the bottom of your slow cooker. Scatter the frozen mixed vegetables, onion, and garlic evenly on top. Pour the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth over everything, then sprinkle in the poultry seasoning, thyme, parsley, salt, and pepper. Gently stir to roughly combine.

Slow Cook Until Tender

Cover and cook on LOW for 5 to 6 hours, or HIGH for 3 to 4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and tender. Stir once or twice if possible, but don't worry if you can't.

Add Biscuit Topping

About 1 hour before serving, open the crock pot and gently stir the mixture. Arrange the biscuit dough pieces in a single layer over the chicken mixture. Brush with melted butter, then cover and continue to cook on HIGH for about 1 hour, or until the biscuits are fluffy and cooked through (center should not look doughy).

Serve and Enjoy

Serve the pot pie hot, scooping chicken, veggies, creamy sauce, and biscuits into each bowl. Garnish with extra parsley if desired, and enjoy pure comfort!

Recipe Variations

Make It Gluten-Free

Use gluten-free biscuit dough or top with gluten-free dumplings for a hearty gluten-free twist. Also, substitute the cream of chicken soup with a homemade, gluten-free version to keep the sauce perfectly thick and creamy.

Go Dairy-Free

Swap the cream of chicken soup with a dairy-free cream soup alternative, and use a vegan or dairy-free biscuit dough. The result is just as luscious and satisfying as the original.

Veggie-Loaded Version

Add extra vegetables like diced potatoes, sweet corn, or fresh spinach for even more color and nutrition. Just dice any extra vegetables small so they cook at the same rate.

Use Rotisserie Chicken

Pressed for time? Use shredded rotisserie chicken instead of raw. Reduce the cooking time-just heat until vegetables are tender, since the chicken is already cooked.

Herby Upgrade

Stir in chopped fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, or tarragon right before serving for a bright, aromatic finish.

Serving Suggestions

Round out this Crock Pot Pot Pie Chicken with a crisp green salad or simple steamed green beans for a well-balanced meal. A sprinkle of fresh parsley or chives on top before serving adds a pop of color and freshness. For a cozy touch, serve with extra biscuits or a chunk of rustic bread to soak up all that rich, creamy sauce.

Storage and Reheating

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Reheat individual portions in the microwave until hot, or warm larger amounts gently in a covered dish in the oven at 325°F. This dish freezes well, although biscuits may soften slightly; freeze for up to 3 months and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.

Frequently Asked Questions About Crock Pot Pot Pie Chicken (FAQ)

Q: Can I put raw biscuit dough in the slow cooker?

A: Yes, just place the uncooked biscuit pieces on top during the last hour of cooking. They'll steam up fluffy and soak up all the delicious flavor.
