Ingredients
Scale
Chicken and Cheese Mixture
- 3 cups cooked chopped chicken
- 3 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- ½ cup sour cream
- ½ tsp onion powder
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
Biscuit
- 2 (6-oz) cans refrigerated flaky biscuits (10 biscuits total)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375ºF (190ºC) and lightly spray a 9×13-inch baking pan with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
- Mix Chicken and Cheeses: In a large bowl, combine the cooked chopped chicken, cream cheese, cottage cheese, sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, shredded mozzarella, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well until all ingredients are evenly mixed into a creamy blend.
- Prepare Biscuits: Cut each biscuit into quarters. This will help the biscuit pieces blend easily and bake evenly within the mixture.
- Combine Biscuits with Chicken Mixture: Add the quartered biscuit pieces to the bowl with the chicken and cheese mixture. Gently fold everything together until the biscuits are well coated with the creamy mixture.
- Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the combined mixture into the prepared 9×13-inch baking pan, spreading it out evenly.
- Bake: Place the baking dish in your preheated oven and bake for 30 to 35 minutes, or until biscuits are cooked through, golden brown, and the cheese mixture is bubbly.
Notes
- If you prefer, substitute the canned biscuits with homemade flaky biscuits for a more rustic flavor.
- Chicken can be grilled, roasted, or even leftover chicken from prior meals.
- Feel free to add chopped herbs like parsley or chives for added freshness.
- This dish can be prepared ahead of time and baked just before serving.
- For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the cheese mixture.
