Add this easy Chicken Pot Pie Casserole to your quick weeknight dinner idea list. Pot Pies make for a comforting meal during the fall and winter months.

Chicken Pot Pie Casserole

When fall arrives, we begin having more at home family dinners. The entire family is ready to spend more time at home being warm and cozy.  Our family likes to enjoy comfort foods like Slow Cooker Chili and Stove Top Mac & Cheese as well as casserole dishes that really fill us up.

This weekend, a bit of chilly weather hit Cincinnati. We all spent the majority of our weekend in pj’s watching movies. Since we were all in the mood for comfort food, I decided a casserole would make for a great Sunday dinner. I whipped up this Chicken Pot Pie casserole for all of us to enjoy.

Since my kiddos love our CopyCat KFC Pot Pie, I made this casserole very similar.

The chicken drenched in a gravy mixture with carrots, peas, and potatoes was a hit. The store bought crescent rolls kept me from spending too much time in the kitchen. This casserole was perfect, quick, easy, and delish.

  1. I have never thought of making this into a casserole until I saw this!! I make something similar to this and use a can of Veg-All! I use pie crusts but will have to try this with the crescent rolls!

  2. adding celery salt to pie crust makes a wonderful pot pie so could try that with crescent rolls too. huge hit in our hosue

  3. My family loved this tonight, I went to get the engrwdients and by the crescent rolls found a crescent roll sheet without the cut outs it helped on time by a little. It was great. Thanks

  4. This recipe lacks flavor. It’s pretty bland. I followed directions exactly, used all the same ingredients. I even added spices to add some flavor but it didn’t help much. It turned out right, I mean it’s just like the picture just doesn’t taste great. It is a good base recipe but if I made it again I would have to come up with some adjustment.

        I did only because I didnโ€™t have both and it still was delicious! I also added a wonderful blend of spices to the chicken as I sautรฉd it. (paprika, onion, salt, red bell pepper, etc.) They both definitely enhanced the flavor a lot!

    1. Try seasoning your chicken the way you would if you were just eating that on its on. I used salt pepper and adobo.super good but not too much.

    2. Have you ever tasted a chicken pot pie that actually has a lot of flavor?? I havent, this looks great! Got the mixture ready now, and it tastes like pot pie should!

  5. besides the delicious recipes, I love how easy it is to print the recipes…so many sites don’t have that option…

  6. Tried this last night. It was really simple to make and tasted good! One thing I’d probably try next time is replace the top crust with pasty dough so it’s more flaky.

  7. Loved this recipe it turned out great! I used the leftover turkey we had from thanksgiving insteainstead of chicken. And if you use cresent dough sheets it saves a little time :)

  8. Where is the recipe for crock pot beef stew that was on Pinterest? When I click on the peef stew I get the recipe for chicken pot pie.

  9. I am going to try this tonight, but I don’t have frozen veggies on hand, I will use canned strained and hope it’s not too gooey. Also, I am going to pan fry my chicken and onions from raw while baking my bottom crust.

    1. I pan โ€œgrilledโ€ my chicken and it was very good. Also, I used 2 cans of mixed vegetables and only 1 can of the soup and 1/2 can of milk. It was a quick and delicious meal.

  10. This looks great! Do you thinking making this the day before and popping it in the oven once you’re home from work would be ok? Or would that make the bottom crust soggy? Just trying to figure out how far I could go in the make ahead process for a quick weeknight meal. Thanks!

    1. I just cut up boneless chicken breaststroke with chopped onions and cooked in crock pot on high for a few hrs. And added two cans of well drained veggies a can of cooked sliced potatoes and 2 cans of the soup with seasonings. Kept it on low (or warm) for 1/2 HR. easy, fix crust as suggested. I also added quarter stick of butter to slow cooker pot .

      1. You could make the filling the night before and then assemble the casserole with your crescent rolls when you’re ready to bake it, that won’t take more than a few minutes. Good luck!

        Hi.
        Wondering if I could use the crescent roll bottom but top this with mash potatoes instead of crust?

        Hope someone replyโ€™s quickly, wanted to make this today ….

        1. Hi John!I bet that would make for a great variation. I would wait and put the mashed on towards the end. Be sure to let us know how this turns out for you. It sounds delish!

    1. No the bottom does not burn as there is moisture in the sauce. It also does not get soggy. The crescents make this pot pie awesome.

  11. Yummy!!!! Will definitely make this again. I cooked my chicken in the crock pot and made this yummy dish after work.

  12. This looks really good. We love chicken pot pie at our house and this looks even better with the crescent rolls. I pinned! Thanks for sharing at #HomeMattersParty

  13. I just LOVE that you put a picture of the ingredient packages along with the recipe. Talk about knowing at a glance what is needed!!! ;-)
