Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole

Add Cheese and Biscuits:

Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded mild cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the chicken mixture.

Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough and arrange the biscuits on top of the cheese layer.

Top with Remaining Cheese:

Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of shredded cheddar cheese over the biscuits. This will create a delicious, cheesy crust as it bakes.
Step 6: Final Baking
Bake Again:

Return the baking dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Step 7: Cool and Serve
Let Cool:

Once baked, remove the casserole from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly and makes it easier to serve.

Serve:

Serve the Creamed Chicken and Biscuits Casserole hot. This dish can be enjoyed on its own as a complete meal, or paired with a fresh salad for a balanced dinner.
