Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie

There are comfort foods, and then there are comfort foods. This Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie falls firmly into the latter category. Imagin extracte all the cozy, savory goodness of a classic chicken pot pie, but with a flaky, cheesy, buttery biscuit topping inspired by everyone’s favorite seafood restaurant.

I’ve taken inspiration from the iconic Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuits to create a topping that is out-of-this-world good. The filling is rich and creamy, packed with tender chicken and vegetables, and the biscuit topping is the perfect crown for this delightful pie. Let’s get started!

Ingredients:

3 cups cooked chicken, diced (You can use rotisserie chicken to save time.)

1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (Peas, carrots, and corn.)

1 cup cream of chicken soup

1 teaspoon garlic powder (For filling and biscuit topping.)

1 teaspoon onion powder

to taste salt and pepper

1/2 cup chicken broth

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 cup unsalted butter (Cold and cubed.)

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

3/4 cup milk

1 tablespoon garlic powder (For a Red Lobster touch.)

Chicken Pot Pie Filling

The base of our pot pie is a classic, creamy chicken filling. It’s simple to put together and incredibly satisfying.

Prepare the Filling: In a large bowl, combine the 3 cups of diced cooked chicken and the 1 cup of frozen mixed vegetables. Pour in the 1 cup of cream of chicken soup. Add 1 teaspoon of garlic powder and 1 teaspoon of onion powder. Season generously with salt and pepper to your liking. Stir everything together until the chicken and vegetables are well coated with the soup. Gradually stir in the 1/2 cup of chicken broth, mixing until you have a thick, cohesive filling. If the mixture seems a little too thick, you can add another splash of chicken broth, but be careful not to make it watery. The filling should be hearty and hold its shape.

Red Lobster Biscuit Topping

This is where the magic happens! We’re transforming a simple biscuit dough into something truly special with cheddar cheese and that signature garlic-butter flavor.

Make the Biscuit Dough: In a separate, large bowl, whisk together the 2 1/2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. This dry mixture forms the foundation of our biscuits.

Cut in the Butter: Add the 1/2 cup of cold, cubed unsalted butter to the dry ingredients. Using a pastry blender, two forks, or your fingertips, cut the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crum extractbs with some pea-sized pieces of butter remaining. The cold butter is crucial for creating flaky biscuits. You want those little pockets of butter to melt and steam as they bake, creating layers.

Add Cheese and Milk: Stir in the 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese and the additional 1 tablespoon of garlic powder. This is our Red Lobster secret weapon for that irresistible cheesy, garlicky flavor! Now, gradually pour in the 3/4 cup of milk, stirring until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this can result in tough biscuits. A few dry spots are okay; they’ll come together when you shape them.

Assembly and Baking

Now it’s time to bring it all together and get this delicious pot pie into the oven.

Assemble the Pot Pie: Pour the prepared chicken filling into a 9-inch pie dish or a similar-sized oven-safe baking dish. Spread it out evenly. Take spoonfuls of the biscuit dough and drop them gently over the top of the chicken filling, arrangin extractg them so they cover most of the surface. They don’t need to be perfectly placed; a rustic look is part of its charm. You can also gently flatten them a little with your fingers if you prefer a more even topping.

Bake to Perfection: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the assembled pot pie on a baking sheet to catch any potential drips. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and cooked through, and the filling is bubbling around the edges. The aroma that will fill your kitchen is simply divine! Let it rest for about 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set slightly.

This Red Lobster Biscuit Chicken Pot Pie is more than just a meal; it’s an experience. The tender chicken and vegetables in a rich, creamy sauce, topped with those irresistible, cheesy, garlic-infused biscuits – it’s pure comfort food bliss. Enjoy every single bite!
