# Step-by-Step Instructions:

01 - Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
02 - In a large bowl, mix shredded chicken, frozen vegetables, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt until well incorporated. Spread the mixture evenly into the prepared dish.
03 - In a separate bowl, combine the biscuit mix (reserve seasoning packet), milk, sour cream, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
04 - Spoon dollops of the biscuit mixture evenly over the chicken filling. Gently spread to cover, leaving small gaps for steam to escape.
05 - Melt the butter and stir in the reserved biscuit seasoning packet. Drizzle this mixture evenly over the biscuit topping.
06 - Bake uncovered for 35 to 40 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is bubbling.
07 - Allow to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. Garnish with chopped fresh parsley if desired.

# Additional Tips::

01 -
  • The biscuit topping gets impossibly fluffy and buttery while the filling underneath stays creamy and comforting.
  • Everything comes together in under an hour with mostly pantry staples, so you look like you tried harder than you did.
  • It feeds a crowd without requiring you to fuss over individual plates.
02 -
  • Never overmix the biscuit dough or you'll end up with a dense, tough topping instead of fluffy clouds.
  • That tiny seasoning packet inside the biscuit box mix is essential for the authentic flavor, so keep it and use it in the butter drizzle.
  • The filling will seem thin at first, but it thickens as it bakes, so don't add extra liquid trying to fix something that isn't broken.
03 -
  • Use rotisserie chicken to save yourself 30 minutes of cooking and shredding, and honestly, nobody will know the difference.
  • If you want to make the biscuits extra fluffy, brush them lightly with melted butter before baking, right after you spread the dough.
