Mini Chicken Pot Pies – Shortcuts to Save Time in the Kitchen
This post may contain affiliate links and I may be compensated for this post. Please read our disclosure policy here.
We’ve been talking all about finding ways to help the dinnertime rush now that kids are back in school and activities are full swing ahead and I know that I have really been on the hunt for easy but healthy dinnertime recipes. We have really started a full-blown schedule this year for the first time with sports and church activities all a distance away, along with keeping up with working from home, so I am all about finding shortcuts to help with meal preparation so that I can spend less time in the kitchen.
Chicken or turkey pot pie are one of my favorite meals, but it can be very time-consuming to make, so I am all about finding a shortcut for a meal that I love! I have a much better chance of getting my girls to eat more veggies, too, when I can combine it as part of the entree.
This recipe was a sure-fire hit! My husband and I loved it, too, especially because it kept our portion sizes smaller so that we didn’t over-eat & put too much on our plate. I think this would make a great entree to serve to guests as it comes out looking so neat & pretty with it all contained within the little pot pie! The best part – it’s super easy & very few ingredients! Most of these items you should have on hand!
You can use any kind of frozen veggies or if you have fresh produce to use up, just chop it up & throw in a mixture of broccoli, zucchini, corn, and more.

Mini Chicken Pot Pies
Ingredients
- 1 cup cooked, diced chicken
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables, thawed (I used a pack of frozen mixed veggies from Costco, which were bigger but I think the smaller mixed veggies would work better or just use your favorite fresh or frozen veggie)
- 1 can of condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1– 2 cans of Pillsbury Grands refrigerated biscuits (depending on how much you stuff each pot pie)
- 2 tsp Montreal Chicken Seasoning (you could also just use a combo of salt, pepper & onion powder to taste to add the flavor you want)
- Shredded cheese (to sprinkle on top)
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F.
- Combine thawed vegetables, chicken, soup, Montreal Chicken Seasoning in a bowl and mix well.
- Roll out each biscuit into a 5 1/2 ” round shape.
- Grease a regular sized muffin tin.
- Put each biscuit round into a muffin cup and press it down and then up along the sides.
- Spoon some of the chicken mixture into each biscuit until full.
- Pleat and pinch the dough at the top to help hold the mixture in.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 15 minutes.
- Take out & sprinkle cheese over the mini pot pies
- Put back in oven for 5-7 more minutes until biscuits are golden brown.
