Do you love Chicken Pot Pie? I sure do.
But sometimes I don’t feel like doing the whole – make the filling, make the crust, wait for it to bake – thing.
So I came up with this super cheater recipe – it gives me the taste of Chicken Pot Pie with hardly any of the work.
Yeah. I’m all for instant gratification.
We call it Chicken Pot Not-Pie – because it’s the filling from a Chicken Pot Pie cooked in a slow cooker and served over rice – with super yummy cheater Parker House rolls.
Wow. We’re cheatin’ all over the place here.
But I promise you’ll love it!
Ingredients:
1 can Cream of Chicken Soup
1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup
2 14 oz(ish) bags of mixed vegetables (any combination of carrots, peas, green beans, and/or corn you like)
2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 cans Heavy Cream (fill up the soup cans after you’ve poured the soup in with heavy cream)
1- 1 1/2 lbs uncooked chicken tenders, chopped
Salt and pepper to taste
3 cups cooked rice
1 can Jumbo Buttermilk Biscuits
1/4 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons grated Parmesan
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Directions:
Place all ingredients in a slow cooker. Mix well.
Ignore in slow cooker on high for 5-6 hours or on low for up to 8 hours.
(if your slow cooker low is really “high” then shorten this time a bit.)
When you’re just about ready to eat, prepare your rolls.
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
Open the can of biscuits and tear each biscuit into 3 pieces. Place 3 pieces into each cup of a 12 cup muffin tin. (This makes 8 rolls)
Mix together melted butter, Parmesan cheese, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and salt.
Brush butter mixture over the rolls, making sure to get it around all the little pieces.
Bake your rolls for 12 – 15 minutes until golden and cooked through.
If you have any remaining butter mixture, brush it over the top of the hot rolls.
Dish up yumminess by putting rice in bowls, then spooning over it the hot Chicken Pot Not-Pie.
Serve with the Cheater Parker House Rolls. They pull apart easily and are so yummy!
Eat way too many rolls than are good for you. (optional but pretty standard around here) :)
I just love easy, delicious meals! Let me know if you give it a try!

I love how simple this is, and I am always looking for good crock pot recipes for when we go camping at Fort Wilderness. Thanks!

I like this version even better! I’m not a fan of chicken pot pie. I’m not sure why other than when I think “pie” I think sweet, and the whole idea of a chicken pot PIE just throws me off. lol! I’m a weirdo! But THIS I could definitely deal with!

This is great, I’m going to have to give it a try! It looks pretty similar to what we had for dinner last night – chicken, cream of chicken soup, cream of potato soup, cup of milk, and bag of frozen veggies, topped with stuffing & baked. I never made the connection to chicken pot pie before, but it is really similar!
Erin @ Crafts & Sutch says
I love chicken pot pie, so I’m going to have to give this one a try. Plus, I love the idea of throwing it all in the slow cooker! :)
Mindy says

you are a genius! especially the tip about using the biscuit mix as rolls!
My mum used to do something similar to your pot-not-pie and it was my favourite meal, I definitely have to try this!

Mmmm…I don’t know which to be more excited about — the creamy deconstructed “not pie” or those buttery rolls!

Hi Bev,
I have just tried this (with a few slight variations to suit availability of products in the U.K.) and it was delicious – many thanks from sunny (occasionally!) West Wales.

I’ve never heard of anything like this, but it sounds so good. And since I’m committed to using my corckpot more, it makes it that much better.
I would love it if you would stop by my new link party at Future Expat – Required Ingredient – since today’s party is featuring chicken recipes. I have a feeling this one would be a bit hit with my readers!
Amanda Robinson says
I just made this for dinner tonight and it was oh so good. Although it was very thin. I just added a couple tablespoons of flour after about 5 hours (on high) and let it cook about 45 more mins. It thickened up nicely.
Beverly says
I’m so glad you like it Amanda! And thanks for the tip about the flour too!
Tammy says
Are the vegetables fresh or frozen for this recipe?
Beverly says
I used frozen Tammy but it would work with fresh also. :)
Brittany says
Tried this tonight! Loved it!!
Ashley Wilcox says
My whole family just loves this, including me!! I just got it requested by my mom this week, & was wondering if you have any tips on doing this in the instant pot?
