Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a large casserole dish.
In a large bowl, stir together the cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, frozen mixed vegetables, and shredded cheese until evenly combined.
Spread the chicken mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish.
Cut each biscuit into quarters. Toss the biscuit pieces with the melted butter until lightly coated.
Arrange the biscuit pieces evenly over the chicken mixture, leaving a little space between some pieces so hot air can circulate.
Bake for about 25 minutes, or until the filling is bubbling and the biscuits are golden brown and baked through. If needed, continue baking a few minutes longer until the centers of the biscuits are no longer doughy.
Let the casserole rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Use cooked chicken that is already seasoned lightly, such as leftover roasted chicken or rotisserie chicken.
Keep the biscuit pieces fairly even in size so they bake at the same rate.
Do not pack the biscuit pieces tightly together; a little space helps the centers cook through.
Frozen vegetables can go in straight from the freezer unless they are covered in heavy ice crystals.
