½ teaspoon black pepper
1 ½ teaspoons garlic powder
½ teaspoon onion powder
¾ teaspoon poultry seasoning
½ yellow onion, diced
¾ cup diced celery
3 medium potatoes, peeled and diced (about 1 pound)

1 16 ounce tube of Grands biscuits

Step By Step Instructions

Ready to put together the best slow cooker Chicken Pot Pie? Follow these simple steps. It’s almost foolproof, I promise!

Step 1: Prepare The Slow Cooker

First things first, let’s get the chicken ready. Place your chicken breasts at the bottom of the slow cooker. Try to arrange them in a single layer if you can.

Now for the flavor. Sprinkle the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and poultry seasoning directly onto the chicken. This ensures every bite is seasoned well.

Next, add all your veggies on top of the chicken. That includes the diced onion, celery, potatoes, and the entire bag of frozen mixed vegetables. Don’t stir just yet!

Step 2: Mix The Creamy Sauce

Grab a medium sized bowl. In it, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, and chicken broth. Keep whisking until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

Pour this beautiful sauce over the vegetables in the slow cooker. Use a spoon to gently spread it out, but try not to disturb the chicken and seasonings at the bottom.

Step 3: Let The Slow Cooker Do The Work

This is the easy part. Place the lid on your crock pot and set it to cook. You can cook it on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours if you’re in more of a hurry.

You’ll know it’s getting close when your house smells incredible. The chicken should be fully cooked and the vegetables tender.

Step 4: Bake The Biscuits

About 20 minutes before you plan to serve dinner, it’s time to think about the topping. Heat your oven according to the directions on the biscuit package.

Bake the biscuits until they are golden brown and fluffy. Having a warm biscuit ready to go is key for the perfect Chicken Pot Pie experience.

Step 5: Shred The Chicken And Serve

Once the cooking time is up, carefully remove the chicken breasts from the slow cooker. They will be very tender. Place them on a cutting board or in a bowl.

Use two forks to shred the chicken. It should fall apart easily. Once it’s all shredded, add it back into the slow cooker.

Give everything a good stir to combine the shredded chicken with the creamy vegetable filling. Now you are ready to serve this delicious Homemade Pot Pie!

Ladle the hot filling into bowls and place a freshly baked biscuit right on top of each serving. Enjoy immediately!

How To Store Leftovers

Have some leftovers? Lucky you! Storing this Chicken Pot Pie filling is simple. Let it cool down to room temperature first.

Then, transfer the filling to an airtight container. It will keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 or 4 days. I recommend storing the biscuits separately in a zip top bag so they don’t get soggy.

When you’re ready to reheat, you can warm the filling in the microwave or on the stovetop. Toast the biscuit for a minute to get it warm and a little crispy again.

Tips

Want to make this Easy Pot Pie Recipe even better? Here are a few simple tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way.

Try Different Toppings: While store bought biscuits are easy, you have options! You can bake puff pastry squares or crescent rolls separately and place them on top. Mashed potatoes also make a great topping.
Use Leftover Chicken: This is a fantastic recipe for using up leftover cooked chicken or even turkey from a holiday meal. Just shred it and add it during the last 30 minutes of cooking to heat through.
Make Your Own Soup: If you’re not a fan of canned soup, making a homemade cream of chicken soup base is easy. It just takes a little butter, flour, milk, and broth.
Don’t Overfill: Be sure your slow cooker is large enough to hold all the ingredients. A 6 quart model is usually a good size. You want to leave some space at the top.
Thicken The Sauce: If your filling seems a little thin at the end, you can make a slurry. Mix one tablespoon of cornstarch with two tablespoons of cold water, then stir it into the filling and let it cook on high for 15 minutes.

Conclusion

And there you have it! A wonderfully simple and delicious slow cooker Chicken Pot Pie. It’s a true set it and forget it meal that the whole family will appreciate.

This Chicken Potpie Recipe proves you don’t need a lot of fuss to make a memorable dinner. It’s comfort food at its finest, perfect for a chilly evening or just a busy weeknight.
