These mini chicken pot pies are ridiculously easy. Seriously… they only have 4 ingredients! And you can make them from start to finish in about 30 minutes. Serve them with a little side salad and it makes a quick and simple weeknight dinner!

Remember when you were a kid, and you imagined what you’d be like when you became a parent? I was convinced I was going to sew all of my kids clothes (ha!) and that I was going to make gourmet meals every single night. (Oh dreams…)

But then a funny thing happened. I had my three kids, andI realized that being a parent is about a million times harder than I ever thought it would be. When everyone gets home from school and daycare at the end of the day, things are kind of like a zoo around here! So when I find a simple, kid friendly recipe, I’m totally on board with it!

These mini chicken pot pies feel like comfort food to me. Somehow, the combination of chicken, veggies and fresh biscuits smells soooooo good when it’s baking! And that perfect, golden brown crust, and bubbly filling? Mmmmm… so good when they are fresh out of the oven!

How to make Mini Chicken Pot Pies:

The full printable recipe is at the end of this post, but here’s what you’ll need:

  • Chicken
  • Mixed Frozen Vegetables
  • Cream of Chicken Soup
  • Refrigerated Biscuit Dough

Only 4 ingredients! I love how easy it is!! If you prefer the taste of crescent roll dough, you could definitely use it instead of the biscuit dough. The biscuit dough comes in individual circles though, so it does make ita lot easier than fussing with cutting circles from the crescent roll dough.

This is a GREAT recipe for using leftover chicken! You can use a rotisserie chicken, leftover home cooked chicken, or if it’s easier, just fry up a fresh chicken breast and chop it up. If you’re really in a hurry, you can also use a can of chicken (I like the canned chicken from Costco), but it does taste better when you use freshor leftover chicken instead of canned.

Buy a package of the frozen vegetables with carrots, peas, green beans and corn. And make sure it is mostly defrosted before you cook it. I defrosted mine at 20% power in the microwave for about 5 minutes.

Mix together the can of cream of chicken soup, the mixed vegetables and the chicken.

Separate the biscuits and place them into a greased muffin tin.

Use your fingers to press down the middle of the dough to thin it out, and then stretch the doughup the sides of the muffin tin as high as it will go. I ended up stretching out the dough twice, letting it rest a couple minutes in between.

Then add the chicken filling inside each of the cups. I added about 2 tablespoons into each of themini chicken pot pies.

Bake them at 375F for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.

Use a knife to cut around the edges if they stick. Mine came out really easily, but it will depend on how much of the nonstick coating is left on your muffin pan. If you’ve scrubbed off most of the nonstick coating, make sure you use some extra cooking spray to keep things loose.

Mmmm… that delicious filling…

Definitely keep an eye on them while they are cooking and when they start to brown, take them out of the oven. I kept mine in the oven for probably 2 minutes too long and the sides ended up being a little darker than I wanted them. Still delicious though!

Mini Chicken Pot Pies

These are such a fun and delicious meal idea when you have a craving for comfort food!

Prep Time10 minutes mins

Cook Time20 minutes mins

Total Time30 minutes mins

Servings: 10

Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup chopped leftover chicken or 1 small fresh chicken breast, fully cooked
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup mixed frozen vegetables peas, carrots, corn and green beans, defrosted
  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 375F.

  • Combine the chicken, mixed vegetables and cream of chicken soup in a medium bowl and stir well.

  • Separate each of the biscuits and place them into the compartments of a greased muffin tin.

  • Using your fingers, push down on the dough starting in the middle, then working the dough up the sides of each of the muffin compartments, as high as it will go.

  • Add the filling to each of the compartments (approximately 2 Tablespoons each).

  • Bake at 375F for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown and bubbly.

Notes

You can substitute the refrigerated biscuit dough for refrigerated crescent roll dough if you prefer. Just cut out circles or squares of the dough to put in the muffin tin. Biscuit dough gives it a salty and firm texture. Crescent roll dough will give it a sweeter and softer texture.

    Looks yummy! I’ve made a similar recipe– that called for Cream of Potato soup (instead of Cream of Chicken) which was so delish with the tiny bites of potato in the Pot Pie!

    Does one package of biscuits make enough for a full muffin pan?

    Have you ever tried it with ready made pie crusts?

      Hi Susan – I haven’t used pie crust before. You might have to adjust the time and temperature, but it would definitely work!

    So delicious! Thank you for sharing. I used home made pie dough instead of the biscuit mix and they turned out great. Love the idea of using cream if potatoe soup, will have to try that next time. Cheers

    Hi! Do you think this would work with fresh veggies (peas, carrots, green beans)? Perhaps slightly steamed 1st? Thanks!

    • Mini Chicken Pot Pies | Easy Mini Chicken Pot Pies Recipe (31)One Little Project says

      Hi Carrie! Yes, fresh veg would definitely work, but I would cook them most of the way before adding them.

    Can these be frozen after being baked? If so, how best to reheat?

    Reply

    • Mini Chicken Pot Pies | Easy Mini Chicken Pot Pies Recipe (33)One Little Project says

      Hi Michelle! Yes, these mini pot pies could definitely be frozen. I’d try reheating them from frozen at 375F for 15 minutes and check them after that. They might take longer to heat, we haven’t tried them from frozen.

    These turned out great. Exactly as I had hoped. Sent to my daughter for her to make while at college. She’ll do a vegetarian version (cream of potato as one person suggested in order to have potato instead of chicken) but the same principles apply. Thank you for such an easy recipe.
