Cuisine: American
Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb chicken breast, cubed
- 1 can biscuit dough
- 1 cup cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup shredded cheese
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Cut chicken breasts into uniform 1-inch cubes. Season the chicken pieces with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken cubes and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is lightly golden and mostly cooked through.
- Open the can of biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters, creating bite-sized dough pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine cream of chicken soup and shredded cheese. Stir until well mixed and smooth.
- Add the partially cooked chicken cubes to the soup and cheese mixture, gently folding to coat all chicken pieces evenly.
- Transfer the chicken and soup mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it out in an even layer.
- Scatter the quartered biscuit dough pieces across the top of the chicken mixture, ensuring they are distributed evenly.
- Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit pieces are golden brown and the chicken is fully cooked.
- Remove from the oven and let the dish rest for 5 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set and cool slightly.
- Serve hot, garnishing with optional chopped parsley or green onions for added color and freshness.
Tips
- Chicken Preparation: Ensure your chicken cubes are cut into uniform sizes for even cooking. Pat the chicken dry before seasoning to help achieve a beautiful golden color.
- Seasoning Secret: Don't be shy with your seasonings! The garlic and onion powder are key to building deep flavor, so make sure to coat the chicken thoroughly.
- Cheese Matters: Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melting consistency and richest flavor. Pre-shredded cheese can contain anti-caking agents that affect texture.
- Biscuit Technique: When cutting biscuits, use a sharp knife and make clean, quick cuts to prevent the dough from getting too compressed.
- Oven Placement: Place the baking dish in the center of the oven for most even heating and golden-brown biscuit tops.
- Resting is Crucial: Allow the dish to rest for 5 minutes after baking. This helps the sauce set and makes serving much easier.
- Make-Ahead Tip: You can prepare this dish up to a day in advance and refrigerate. Just add an extra 5-10 minutes to the baking time if cooking from cold.
