Who doesn’t love a good old fashioned chicken pot pie? We’ve taken the flavor of a classic Chicken Pot Pie and condensed it down into a mini version, using canned biscuit dough. The result? An easy to make handheld pot pie that works great for leftovers, snacks or appetizers!
Ingredients for Mini Chicken Pot Pie
You’ll need a muffin tin for this recipe, sprayed with nonstick spray.
- Canned Biscuit Dough
- We use canned biscuit dough for the crust to keep this recipe easy.
- Mirepoix
- That’s chopped celery, carrots and onion. Some stores (Trader Joe’s, specifically) sell it pre chopped if you want to save a step!
- Butter
- I use salted.
- Flour
- To thicken & make a creamy sauce.
- Herbs
- Fresh is best!
- Cooked Chicken
- Leftover rotisserie chicken, or chicken breast works great. Shredded
- Chicken Stock
- Kitchen Basics is our favorite brand.
- Peas
- Frozen peas, self explanatory.
Recipe Instructions:
In a saucepan, melt butter, then sauté mirepoix. Once tender, add herbs & stir. Next, add flour, and whisk until combined with the veggies. Add chicken stock, and whisk until fully combined. Remove from heat, add chicken and peas, stir and set aside.
Gently roll out each biscuit using a rolling pin, and place it in the greased muffin tin. Add about 2-3 tbsp of the chicken pot pie filling to the center of each pot pie. You can choose to close these, or leave them open faced- chef’s choice! If you pinch them closed, consider sprinkling some thyme on them for a garnish to jazz them up a bit.
Bake them for roughly 15 minutes, or until golden brown, serve and enjoy!
- You can keep these in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, wrapped tightly in plastic wrap.
- To reheat, simply remove from plastic wrap, and microwave for 15-30 seconds at a time until heated through (we like to do this in a paper towel to avoid the dough from becoming tough).
- You can also freeze these easily for later. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap and freeze for up to 2 months. To reheat, follow the instructions above.
