Chicken Pot Pie Casserole
Description
Chicken Pot Pie Casserole blends cubed or shredded cooked chicken with thawed mixed vegetables in a creamy sauce made by whisking mayonnaise, flour, chicken bouillon granules, black pepper, and milk until thick. The mixture is transferred to a greased baking dish and topped with crescent roll triangles. Baking at 375°F for 15-20 minutes results in a bubbly filling beneath a golden, flaky dough crust.
The casserole balances creamy and savory flavors with flaky texture from the crescent rolls, creating a homey, layered dish. The one-dish preparation is convenient for weeknight meals.
This casserole can be doubled for larger portions in a 9x13-inch pan, adjusting baking time accordingly. Leftovers keep well refrigerated and reheat smoothly for lunches. Substituting refrigerated biscuits for crescent rolls offers a slightly different but still enjoyable topping.
Ingredients
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 2 Tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ¾ cup milk
- 10 ounces mixed vegetables thawed
- 1 ½ cups chicken breast cubed, cooked, or rotisserie chicken
- 8 ounces crescent rolls refrigerated
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- In a saucepan, whisk first four ingredients until smooth. Gradually stir in milk. Bring mixture to a boil over medium heat. Cook and stir until thickened, about 2 minutes.
- Add vegetables and chicken to mixture; cook and stir until heated through. Transfer to greased 8 x 8 inch baking dish.
- Unroll crescent roll dough and separate into eight triangles. Arrange the crescent rolls over chicken mixture in baking dish. Bake until heated through and crescent topping is golden brown about 15-20 minutes.
Notes
- Use rotisserie or leftover chicken for quicker preparation, or canned chicken as a simple shortcut.
- Crescent rolls can be switched with refrigerated biscuits for a different texture on top.
- Doubling the recipe requires a larger baking dish and longer baking time to ensure thorough cooking.
- Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator up to three days and reheat in the microwave for convenient meals.
