Chicken Casserole with Garlic Cheddar Biscuit Crust is the perfect use for leftover Turkey or Chicken. A favorite easy casserole recipe the family will love from Serena Bakes Simply From Scratch.

I ❤ Chicken Or Turkey Pot Pie!  Add cheddar biscuits to the top and I am in heaven! Chicken Casserole with Biscuits are a creamy cozy comfort food with a garlic cheddar biscuit crust.

The filling can easily be made ahead of time and topped with the biscuits right before baking. 

Hello deliciousness! Come to Mama.

When I was little Granny would regularly make Chicken Pot Pies in the cute little ramekins. It was always a favorite. But this is a little bit easier to make than individual Chicken Pot Pies.

Here's the easy to follow recipe and handy dandy printable below.
