In my opinion, there is no dish more comforting than chicken pot pie. Just the name itself warms me up. Actually, anything with the word "pie" makes me happy. This savory, creamy treat with a flaky biscuit crust is the perfect meal for a cold, rainy day. Hearty and delicious, this delectable dish is meant to fill you up!

This chicken pot pie recipe is as easy as it gets. In place of rolling out a pie crust, all you need is a can of biscuit dough, such as Pillsbury Grands. Using precooked shredded chicken (I recommend using your favorite rotisserie chicken) will make this recipe a snap to pull together. It's as simple as combining all your ingredients, baking, topping with biscuit dough, baking a few more minutes and viola! You have chicken pot pie in under 45 minutes!
