Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tsp butter
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 2 pounds cooked chicken, cut or shredded
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 cup milk
- 1/2 cup roasted red pepper, chopped
- 1 1/2 cups mild cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
- In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 1/2 teaspoons of butter. Add chopped onion and sauté for about 5 minutes, until softened.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sautéed onion, cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, mayonnaise, milk, and chopped roasted red peppers. Stir to coat the chicken evenly.
- Spread the chicken mixture evenly in the greased baking dish. Bake in the oven for 15 minutes.
- Remove the dish from the oven. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the chicken mixture. Arrange the biscuit dough on top and sprinkle with another 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese.
- Return the dish to the oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, the cheese is bubbly and the filling reaches 165°F.
- Let the casserole sit for a few minutes before serving. Serve hot and enjoy with a side salad if desired.
