Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ tsp butter
• 1 small onion, chopped
• 2 pounds of cooked chicken, cut or shredded
• 1 can of cream of chicken soup
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 1 cup of milk
• ½ cup roasted red pepper, chopped
• 1 ½ cup cheddar cheese, mild
• 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough

Instructions:

1. Preheat and Prep:

• Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter and set aside.

1. Saute Onion:

• In a skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent and fragrant, about 5 minutes.

1. Combine Ingredients:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, milk, roasted red pepper, and half of the shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well to combine.

1. Assemble Casserole:

• Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly.

1. Add Biscuit Topping:

• Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and place the biscuits on top of the chicken mixture in the baking dish. Arrange them in a single layer or slightly overlapping, as desired.

1. Bake:

• Transfer the casserole to the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

1. Garnish and Serve:

• Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and sprinkle the remaining shredded cheddar cheese on top. Return the casserole to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly. Garnish with chopped parsley or green onions if desired.

1. Serve Warm:

• Allow the Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole to cool slightly before serving. Spoon generous portions onto plates and enjoy the comforting flavors of this delicious dish.

Cook Notes and Variations:

• Vegetable Additions: Mix in your favorite vegetables such as peas, carrots, or broccoli to add color and nutrients to the casserole.
• Herb Infusion: Incorporate fresh herbs like thyme, rosemary, or parsley into the chicken mixture for added flavor and aroma.
• Spice it Up: For a hint of heat, add a dash of hot sauce or sprinkle red pepper flakes over the casserole before baking.

Keto and Low-Carb Versions:

• Keto-Friendly Option: Replace the refrigerated biscuit dough with a homemade almond flour biscuit topping. Use full-fat mayonnaise and cream cheese instead of low-fat options to keep the dish keto-friendly.
• Low-Carb Alternative: Skip the biscuit topping altogether and serve the creamy chicken mixture over cauliflower rice or mashed cauliflower for a low-carb alternative that’s just as satisfying.
