Ingredients You’ll Need

Basic Ingredients

• Chicken – 2 lbs of boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs give you that perfect shreddable texture after slow cooking.
• Soups – Two cans of cream of chicken soup plus one can of cream of celery soup form the luscious base. You can swap celery for mushroom or onion soup if you prefer.
• Frozen mixed veggies – A 12 oz bag adds color and nutrition. Use carrots, peas, corn, or whatever’s hanging out in your freezer.
• Seasonings – Garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper, used in layers for the best flavor.
• Biscuits – One can of refrigerated homestyle biscuits (or your favorite homemade ones) — they’re the golden crown on top.

Optional Add-ins & Swaps

• Turkey instead of chicken – Perfect for using up leftovers.
• Homemade cream sauce – Go for it if you want to skip canned soups.
• Puff pastry or crescent dough – For a flakier, fancier topping.
• Fresh herbs – Add a pop of parsley, thyme, or rosemary at the end.
• Low-sodium options – Choose reduced-sodium soups if you’re watching salt.
• Dairy-free adjustments – Use dairy-free cream soups to make it more allergy-friendly.

How to Make Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie

Step-by-Step Instructions

Prep the slow cooker – Spray the inside with nonstick spray to prevent sticking.

Layer in the chicken – Place raw chicken on the bottom and season with half your garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper.

Add soups – Pour the canned soups right on top of the chicken.

Add vegetables – Sprinkle your mixed veggies evenly over the soups.

Season again – Use the remaining seasoning to top everything off.

Cover and cook – On LOW for 6–8 hours or HIGH for 4–6 hours, until the chicken is fully cooked and easy to shred.

Bake the biscuits – About 20 minutes before serving, bake biscuits as directed.

Shred and stir – Shred the chicken right in the crock pot and stir everything together.

Serve – Ladle the hot filling over a halved biscuit or top with a full biscuit.

Serving Tips

• Serving ideas – Try it over warm biscuits, puff pastry squares, or even buttery toast. A crisp side salad balances the richness beautifully.
• Leftovers – Store the filling and biscuits separately to avoid sogginess. Reheat filling in the microwave in 30-second bursts or on the stovetop.
• Make it fancy – Spoon the mixture into ramekins, top with pastry, and bake until golden for a dinner-party-worthy version.

Recipe Tips & Easy Variations

• Need it thicker? – Stir in a cornstarch slurry (1 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water) during the last hour of cooking.
• No raw chicken? – Use rotisserie chicken and reduce cooking time by half.
• Mix up the toppings – Try buttery crescent rolls or flaky puff pastry baked on top.
• Veggie swaps – Add fresh or frozen green beans, broccoli, or even mushrooms if you’ve got them.
• Short on time? – Prep everything the night before and start the slow cooker in the morning.
