Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie

Why You’re Going to Love This Recipe

  • Rich and Comforting: This chicken pot pie is a dreamy marriage of savory flavors. The Marry Me gravy, packed with sun-dried tomatoes, spinach, and a splash of white wine, is luscious and velvety.

  • Versatile: Whether you bake it in individual ramekins or a single dish, it’s perfect for cozy dinners or entertaining.
  • Simple yet Indulgent: Despite the indulgent flavors, it’s easy to make, with each step adding layers of depth and richness to the dish.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • For the Filling: Chicken thighs or breast, potatoes, onions, oil from sun-dried tomatoes, and a few staple seasonings.
  • For the Marry Me Gravy: Chicken broth, white wine, fresh spinach, heavy cream, sun-dried tomatoes, butter, flour, and aromatic herbs like garlic, thyme, and oregano.
  • For the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Topping: Red Lobster biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, milk, and a garlic herb butter sauce to brush on at the end.

How to Make Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie (VIDEO)

1. Prepare the Chicken and Vegetables
Start by seasoning the chicken with garlic powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika, and oil from the sun-dried tomatoes. Sear the chicken in a hot pan until it’s golden brown on both sides, then chop it into bite-sized pieces. In the same pan, sauté onions and potatoes until tender and caramelized.

2. Make the Marry Me Gravy
Deglaze the pan with white wine, letting it reduce slightly. Melt butter, then sprinkle in flour to create a roux with the sautéed vegetables. Slowly stir in the chicken broth, followed by the heavy cream, garlic, thyme, and oregano, creating a creamy, flavorful gravy. Stir in the sun-dried tomatoes, chicken, and finally, fresh spinach to complete the filling.

3. Make the Biscuit Topping
Mix together the biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk until a dough forms. Be careful not to overmix to keep the biscuits light and fluffy.

4. Assemble and Bake
Preheat your oven to 425°F. Divide the filling into individual ramekins or transfer it to a large baking dish. Top with dollops of the cheddar bay biscuit dough. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, then brush them with garlic herb butter as soon as they come out of the oven.

5. Serve and Savor
Serve immediately while the pot pie is bubbling and the biscuits are still warm. Each bite combines savory chicken, creamy gravy, and a perfectly cheesy biscuit topping.

Tips for Success

  • Use Fresh Spinach: It wilts perfectly in the creamy gravy, adding a pop of color and nutrients.
  • Don’t Skip the Wine: The dry white wine adds a subtle depth to the gravy, balancing out the richness of the cream.
  • Shaggy Dough is Key: When mixing the biscuit dough, stop once it just comes together to ensure tender, fluffy biscuits.

Storing and Reheating

Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to three days. Reheat in the oven to maintain the crispness of the biscuit topping, or microwave for a quick and cozy meal. This pot pie also freezes well—just be sure to cover it tightly before freezing, and bake straight from the freezer when you’re ready to enjoy.


This Marry Me Chicken Pot Pie is the perfect dish to cozy up with on a cool evening. Its indulgent, rich flavors, paired with that irresistible Cheddar Bay Biscuit topping, make it a dinner that’ll have everyone coming back for more!

Instructions

Filling

  • In a large bowl add the bones less skinless chicken thighs and season with garlic powder, salt, pepper, smoked paprika and some oil from the sun dried tomatoes.
  • Mix to until all the chicken thighs are well coated and set aside.
  • In a large pan over medium heat, add some olive oil and cook the marinated chicken thighs on both sides until they are golden brown. About 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Once cooked cut into bite sized pieces set aside.
  • To the same pan, add some onions and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Then, add that with the diced potatoes.
  • Allow the potatoes to cook for 4-5 minutes. Stir every 1-2 minutes.

  • As soon as they come out of the oven, brush on the herb garlic butter and serve. Enjoy!

Crispy Chicken Biscuits with Whipped Honey Butter

There’s something magical about the combination of crispy fried chicken and buttery biscuits. These Chicken Biscuit take it to the next level with a generous drizzle of whipped honey butter. Whether you’re making these for brunch, lunch, or dinner, the combination of tender chicken, fluffy biscuits, and sweet-savory honey butter will have everyone asking for seconds.

Why You’re Going to Love This Recipe

  • Perfect for Comfort Food Cravings: If you’re craving something indulgent and comforting, these chicken biscuits hit the spot. The crispy, golden chicken pairs beautifully with a soft, buttery biscuit, and the whipped honey butter adds an irresistible sweetness.

  • Versatile & Customizable: Use your favorite biscuit recipe or even store-bought ones in a pinch. You can also adjust the spices in the marinade and batter to suit your taste!

How to Make Chicken Biscuits

  1. Marinate the Chicken: The secret to juicy, flavorful chicken starts with the marinade. A mix of buttermilk, pickle juice, and a few simple spices infuses the chicken with flavor and keeps it incredibly tender.
  2. Whip Up the Honey Butter: This honey butter is a game-changer! Whipped until light and fluffy, it’s the perfect balance of sweet and savory with a touch of garlic and onion.
  3. Prepare the Crispy Batter: The combination of flour, cornstarch, and spices gives the chicken its signature crispiness. Each piece is dredged in the mixture, ensuring a crunchy bite in every mouthful.
  4. Fry the Chicken: Once the chicken is marinated and coated, fry until golden brown and perfectly crispy. The key is to fry in batches to avoid overcrowding the pot.
  5. Assemble the Biscuits (recipe): Start with a toasted biscuit, add a piece of crispy chicken, and slather it with that luscious honey butter. Crown it with the top half of the biscuit, and you’re ready to savor every bite.

Storage and Leftovers

If you have leftovers (though that’s unlikely!), store the chicken and biscuits separately in airtight containers. The chicken will stay crispy if reheated in an oven or air fryer. The whipped honey butter can be stored in the fridge and spread on anything from toast to cornbread for a little extra indulgence!

Notes

My twist on an Atlanta classic! Made in the air fryer they come out extra crispy and really juicy. The lemon pepper butter takes these skewers to another level!

  • Now, add the cooked chicken and the remaining mozzarella cheese.
  • Drizzle with olive oil and cook until the edges of the dough start to bubble and sizzle.
  • Put into the oven at 450F for 13-15 mins. Until the edges are golden brown and crispy. *please use caution when transfering to the oven. The pan will be hot at this point*
  • Top with fresh chopped basil and more paremsan cheese.
  • Run a knife around the edge of the pizza and it should slide right out of the pan.
  • Slice into equal pieces and enjoy!
