FAQ's
No, you do not need to thaw the frozen vegetables first. They go from the freezer to the casserole dish.
Absolutely! You'll want at least four cups of fresh vegetables, diced into small bite sized pieces.
Typically served in a pie plate along with a crust, it mimics a pie.
Yes, you can add a bottom crust. It will need to be pre-baked prior to adding the chicken mixture. Often times the bottom of casserole dish gets soggy, so this recipe eliminates that step!
Top Tip
Be sure to allow the casserole to rest for 10 minutes after removing it from the oven.
Variations
Instead of canned crescent rolls, use a store-bought pie crust. You can also use canned biscuits for the crust as well.
Fat free or low sodium cream of chicken soup is a great substitute. You can also use cream of broccoli soup or cream of mushroom or celery.
Related recipes
If chicken casseroles are your kind of comfort food, I've got plenty more to share! My King Ranch Chicken Casserole is a Tex-Mex favorite loaded with layers of flavor, while the Chicken and Broccoli Rice Casserole is a creamy, cheesy classic that sneaks in some veggies too.
And if you're looking for rich and indulgent, the Million Dollar Chicken Casserole definitely lives up to its name. It's creamy, dreamy, and so satisfying.
Serving suggestions
This casserole is a full meal on its own, but a few simple sides really round things out! Try serving it with a crisp green salad for some freshness, or a basket of warm dinner rolls to soak up that creamy sauce.
Steamed green beans or roasted carrots are always a hit alongside it, and if you want to go the cozy route, a bowl of fruit salad or applesauce on the side makes a sweet and simple finish.

If you wanted to, a person could even flatten them out a bit to make for thinner upper crust.
Could even sprinkle a bit of cheese on top and place under the broiler until the cheese is melted and biscuits have browned up a bit more.
Ann says
Easy and delicious. I’ll use fresh or canned veggies next time or find a tastier brand of frozen. Is this casserole good if frozen?
Debra Clark says
You can successfully freeze the filling (without the top crust) and just pop a crust on when you're ready to bake. But the crust leaves something to be desired after freezing/thawing. Great question! I'm so glad you enjoyed the recipe!
Susan Turcsany says
Have made this many times in the past usually when I have leftover store bought rotisserie chicken. This is the first time I've tried crescent dough instead of store bought refrigerated pie crust and it came out great. I've also used canned mixed vegetables (well drained) when I didn't have frozen and added in some some minced celery, onions and red pepper (sometimes even mushrooms). This is a great quick recipe, very tasty and the house smells fantastic while it's baking!
Lois says
I’ve made this and just so easy and so tasty. We love it.
Michelle Bogart says
I made a recipe with crescent roll dough another time and my son was not fond of the sweetness of the dough. Is the butter flavor one less sweet?
Bowl Me Over says
That's a great question Michelle. The flavor is similar on both versions. Instead, you could make a drop biscuit (Bisquick type dough) or Pillsbury Grand biscuits. That would work great as well. I totally understand the crescent roll dough isn't for everyone!
ColleenB. - TX. says
I have used the Flaky Grands Biscuits; cut into quarters and used that as my top crust.
Debra Clark says
Oooh great variation Colleen, Did you place them on whole or split them so they weren't so thick? Just curious! Thanks for sharing!!
ColleenB. - TX. says
After I quartered the biscuits, I just placed them whole (no splitting them) and placed the cut sections right on top leaving a small space between each quarter section.
I guess you could split them if you wanted to.
Debra Clark says
That's good to know, thank you Colleen! I just wasn't sure if they would bake all the way through if they weren't split. Thank you for confirming they do! I appreciate your feedback!!
