Chicken and Biscuits – only 5 ingredients! Chicken and gravy topped with refrigerated biscuits and baked until bubbly and golden. This is a family favorite!
This meal is one of the first I ever learned to cook. My Aunt Micki made a cookbook for me after my first kiddo was born and this was in it. It was a favorite of her boys and has become a favorite of mine too.
It’s like chicken and dumplings but since the biscuits aren’t completely covered by the gravy, the tops actually bake up like biscuits. So it’s basically dumplings and biscuits in the same meal.
My idea of heaven.
Ingredients
- 4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
- 1 packet Pioneer biscuit gravy mix
- ¼ cup flour
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 3 cups cooked and shredded chicken
- 1 can 10 or 12-pack refrigerated biscuits
Instructions
- Bring chicken broth to a boil in a large pot over medium heat.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk the biscuit gravy mix and the flour with about ¼ cup of water and then add that mixture to the broth. Add the cream of chicken soup and bring to a boil. Let cook until thickened to a thick gravy-like consistency.
- Transfer the mixture to a casseole dish.
- Cut each biscuit into 6 pieces each and place the pieces on top of the chicken and gravy mixture.
- Bake according to biscuit directions. You want the biscuits to be a deep golden brown to make sure the bottoms are cooked thoroughly.
Can You Freeze Chicken and Biscuits
Yes, Chicken and Biscuits freezes wonderfully! I like to double the recipe and freeze half for a super easy dinner. I put the chicken mixture in freezer ziploc bags and make sure to squeeze as much air out as possible. Don’t put the biscuits on until right before you bake it.
It will be fine in the freezer for up to 3 months. Let it thaw in the fridge overnight before transfering to a casserole dish and topping with the biscuits.
What To Serve With It
I like to serve a green veggie with chicken and biscuits. You can keep it super easy with steamed frozen peas or green beans or even a simple salad.

I increased this recipe by 10 and we served 70 Senior Citizens at a church luncheon. The only change I made was baking the canned biscuits separately , splitting in two, and serving the chicken mixture on top of the biscuits! It was a huge hit. Will put this recipe in our rotation. Thank you!

How do you get the bottom of the biscuits to cook? mines never cook all the way thru.
amanda says
I’ve never had a problem wit them not cooking. They are a little soggy, I guess, from being in the gravy mixture. I just cook at whatever temp & time the biscuit can says. :)
