Ingredients
Scale
Chicken Mixture
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 can (10.75 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
Biscuit and Topping
- 1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuits
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to prepare for baking the casserole.
- Combine Ingredients: In a large bowl, mix the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, cheddar cheese, milk, garlic powder, and black pepper until well blended.
- Add Biscuits: Cut each refrigerated biscuit into quarters, then gently stir them into the chicken mixture to evenly distribute the biscuit pieces.
- Transfer to Baking Dish: Spoon the entire mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading it out evenly for uniform cooking.
- Add Butter Topping: Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the casserole to ensure a rich, golden crust when baked.
- Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown on top and the biscuits are fully cooked through.
- Serve: Serve hot, ideally paired with a side of steamed vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
Notes
- The shredded cooked chicken can be rotisserie chicken for convenience.
- Ensure biscuits are mixed gently to avoid breaking them down into dough.
- You can substitute cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom or celery soup for a flavor twist.
- For a lower-fat version, use reduced-fat sour cream and cheddar cheese.
- Make sure to grease the baking dish well to prevent sticking.
