✅Ingredients:
For the Chicken Pot Pie:
2 cups cooked chicken breast (diced, you can use rotisserie chicken or leftover chicken)
1 cup frozen peas
1 cup diced carrots (fresh or frozen)
1/2 cup diced celery
1/2 cup diced onion
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup milk
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp dried rosemary
Salt and pepper (to taste)
For the Rolls:
1 can (8 count) refrigerated crescent rolls (or biscuit dough)
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
1/2 tsp dried parsley (optional)
✅Instructions:
1. Prepare the Chicken Pot Pie:
Cook Vegetables:
In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
Make the Sauce:
Sprinkle flour over the vegetables and stir to combine. Cook for 1-2 minutes to form a roux.
Gradually whisk in chicken broth and milk, stirring constantly. Bring to a simmer and cook until the mixture thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
Add Chicken and Cheese:
Stir in cooked chicken, frozen peas, shredded cheddar cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, dried thyme, dried rosemary, salt, and pepper. Mix until the cheese is melted and everything is well combined.
Transfer to Baking Dish:
Pour the chicken mixture into a glass baking dish (about 9×9 inches or similar).
2. Prepare the Rolls:
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to the temperature specified on the crescent roll or biscuit dough package (usually 375°F or 190°C).
Top the Casserole:
Arrange the crescent rolls or biscuit dough on top of the chicken mixture in the baking dish. You can place them in a single layer or slightly overlap them.
Add Topping:
Brush the tops of the rolls with melted butter. Sprinkle with garlic powder and dried parsley if desired for extra flavor.
3. Bake the Dish:
Bake:
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
Cool Slightly:
Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before serving.
4. Serve:
Serve Warm:
Serve the chicken pot pie with the rolls on top straight from the baking dish.
