Potsie's Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole
1 small onion
1 1/2 tsp butter
2 lbs. chopped cooked chicken breasts or 2 lbs. boneless skinless chicken thighs
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup milk
1/2 cup chooped pimiento or 1/2 cup sauteed red bell peppers or 1/2 cup jarred roasted red pepper
1 1/2 cups shredded mild cheddar cheese
refrigerated biscuits
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350. Grease the bottom and sides of an 11 x 7 inch baking dish or 10 inch quiche dish.
Chop the onion; heat butter in a small nonstick skillet and saute until tender.
Combine cooked onion, soup, chicken, milk, pimiento (or red bell pepper), and mayo in a bowl and then turn into the prepared baking dish.
Bake for 15 minutes and remove from oven. Sprinkle q cup of the cheese over the baked mixture.
Arrange biscuits decoratively in a single layer and sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup cheese over them.
Return casserole to oven and bake until biscuits are golden brown and sauce is bubbly, usually about 20 minutes longer.
Note: This is RICH! You may sub sour cream for all or part of the mayo if you wish to cut back on the heaviness. The last time I made this I used a 1/4 cup of fat free mayo and 1/4 cup of sour cream. I think it was delicious. Also, I took the suggestion of adding a cup of cooked green peas. What a terrific idea! I LOVED it! I think I might add two cups next time. Thanks to you all for making my humble recipe and leaving your suggestions. You GREATLY improved a recipe I was already proud of. Thanks so much.
Note from Tammy: I took the suggestion above from the original source of the recipe and used 1/4 cup of mayo and 1/4 cup of sour cream and the 2 cups of cooked green peas. It reminded me sorta of a good chicken pot pie. Jason and Luke especially loved this. It was pretty good to me, but I tend to favor spicier recipes. I will be making it again though since the guys really liked it.

It looks like somthing I remember eating as a kid! Will have to try that one - maybe when it cools down, it's 90's up here.
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy, oh yummy, love chicken and biscuits....not a great cook but would like to try this, Blessings Francine.
ReplyDeleteLove this kind of dish...looks and sounds awesome.
ReplyDeleteI think I had this at the last funeral we went to - loved it.
You can spice this up Tammy - play around with it and it may be a favorite for you too!

This looks yummy! I may have to give it a try. Have you tried it with homemade biscuits? I wonder if that would work.
ReplyDeleteMama,
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a chicken pot pie! :)
I'm so glad that you're going to keep doing Pinned It, Made It! Monday! :)
Love you! 8!
Love,
Joy :)
This is very similar to shepherds pie my mom use to make. Except she added mix veggies. It's still one of my favorite memories.
ReplyDeleteHi Tammy--- I had my Pinned It all made from last week, so it was pretty easy to get done this week! :-)
ReplyDeleteYou recipe sounds like something a few of my kiddos would like. We'd probably go with green beans, since not a lot of pea lovers here. I'm with you on the spice factor but on recipes like this I add a lot of cracked black pepper to my serving along with garlic if it needs it.
Nice post. It’s really informative for the followers and users of this site like me. I like the way you describe this. Thanks for sharing. . .
