I followed this recipe with the exception of using all fresh veggies but had to add spices to give it the quick I felt it was missing - poultry seasoning, celery salt, marjoram, pepper and sage. Good comfort food recipe that isn't too bad for you.

I had to substitute homemade turkey broth and turkey meat for the chicken broth/chicken meat in this casserole only because that's what I had on hand. I did use equal amounts fresh sliced baby bella mushrooms. I made this casserole in my cast iron skillet. What I did was browned the onion with the mushrooms, red pepper and a little fresh minced garlic in the butter in the skillet, then added the flour and let the mixture turn a light brown before adding the broth, turkey meat and the remaining vegetables. Before sticking the casserole in the oven, I brushed each biscuit with butter. My casserole was done in a little over 20 minutes. The whole family liked it. This is really like a quick Turkey Pot Pie. I'd make this again. Very filling and comforting dish.

Home made goodness taste without the effort!!  The kids even loved it.  It was an easy way to sneak vegetables into a meal.  I used a bag of frozen mixed vegetables instead of just plan peas.  I skipped the peppers because no one in my family really likes them.

No clue what planet I was on when I put in 1/2 cup of flour.  Had to scramble to add more butter, cursing like mad.. but it's weird.  I had boiled up a large batch of chicken thighs for the meat, as I was 'going cheap', and I always make my own broth from that of course, so I had plenty of broth to keep adding to make the consistancy of my Mistake.. work.  The stuff I ended up with was thicker still than I would normally have made it and I just knew it was going to be awful! it turned out awesome!  lol  Just goes to show, when a recipe is simple basic, it can cover lil mistakes like that.  Now the family wants it Just that way all the time.

I adjusted this recipe only to include more chicken, as my kids are fanatics about white meat.  This was the easiest, and
most adaptable recipe I have found in a long time.  Thanks Sara, my kids thought of it like a Chicken Pot Pie, and if I had told
them Ala King, they would not have even tried it!!!!

Very good.  I liked not using soup to make the sauce.  I added a touch of rosemary and thyme.

Wonderful!  I love Terry's Easy Chicken Pie from this site but when I went on a diet, it became a "No-no".  So, I started making this instead.  I use can of mushrooms and some frozen corn, beans, and carrots in place of the veggies listed here.  I also use reduced fat bisquits.  It's great comfort food and my picky family loves it!  Thanks for a great recipe, Sara!

Easy A La King Biscuit Casserole Haiku: "This was pretty bland. The worst was raw biscuit dough. Whole dish was a dud." The best part of this recipe was that it didn't call for a can of cream of this-or-that, but the end result was still really tame and could've greatly benefited from some herbs and/or seasoning. Also, in 30 min. we had biscuits that were more than golden on the top (veering into overdone territory), but totally raw half-way down, so when serving it, we had to tug and flick away the uncooked biscuits which was very disappointing to the whole family.

This recipe was pretty good.  Like a big pot pie.  I added frozen peas &amp; carrots &amp; eliminated the mushrooms &amp; peppers since my kids won't eat them.  Otherwise they really liked it.

My family really liked this recipe and it was very easy. I added corn and omitted the mushrooms and peppers.It was a little bland will spice up next time. This is a wonderful FAST meal after a hard day at work.

I chose this recipe from among the others because it didn't call for any condensed soup, which I can't get overseas.  I love the simplicity and versatility of this recipe -- I add any veggies I have, and it's always good.  I also can't get refrigerated biscuits where I live, but it's so easy to whip up a batch of drop biscuits, which also work perfectly with the recipe.  Thanks!  

I made it this evening &amp; it was Great! I added a half can of cream of celery &amp; cream of chicken. Fantastic!

This was a great recipe.  I did make some mistakes making it, but I think it turned out even better.  I thought I had chicken broth, but I had chichen gravy so used a whole can and then half a can of water.  I used the mini carrots and just chopped small pieces.  I also used the Grands biscuts and the entire dish was gone with just my boyfriend and me.  I will probably double the recipe next time for more "stuff" to go with the biscuits. My boyfriend raved about this dish!  Thanks Sara!

Following suggestions from other reviewers, I added some thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper (to kick it up a notch). I also used a store-bought rotisserie chicken. The outcome was yummy!  Really should have doubled all of the ingredients (except biscuits) to have more substance under all those biscuits.  It seemed pretty skimpy - in fact I was digging around under the other biscuits to get enough "stuff" for us to eat.  Next time, I'll double the recipe.

This was soooo good and comfort food all the way.  My husband and I loved it.  It is also Very filling. I did add more butter than the recipe called for.  The constistency did not look right until I added more butter.  Thank you for the great recipe!

It was ok - kind of bland.  Needs to be jazzed up a bit.

I thought this was pretty good, but both my fiance' and I agreed it was more like "green peas a la king" ... I think it was my fault though as I used canned peas (recipe didn't really specify).  Plus, the bottom of the biscuits didn't cook all the way...was it supposed to be like this?

we had to make some adjustments since my husband is gluten-free (had to make our own gluten-free biscuits and make the soup base from scratch), but this was very tasty!  a bit like chicken pot pie.  it required a little more effort than I expected, but I assume that if you could follow the recipe as written it would be much easier.  Thanks!

This was GREAT!  Thank YOU!!  I made it for my husband's birthday and EVERYONE loved it!!!  I had it scaled for 15 servings but it only served 10 hungry people.  I did make a few changes, instead of the veggies listed I bought canned mixed veggies and it was great.  I also ended up adding more flour with some water to thicken it up a little more.  I will diffenatly make it again!!!!!

This was an easy "need to get dinner on the table" meal. Chicken could have used a little seasoning- it was pretty bland.

The biscuits did not cook on the bottom.  Next time I would bake them separately and place them on top for the last 5 minutes.  Also the carrots did not cook thoroughly.  I would steam them until almost fully cook.  Also needs salt and pepper for a better flavor.

Just make your favorite chicken pot pie filling and put  biscuits on it. No seasonings. So dull and bland. And it doesn't take a 4-star chef to know putting a refrig. Biscuit onbefore baking it is  not gonna cook the bottom of biscuit. Bake the ui7e

My husband and I both liked this casserole. I omitted the red pepper because I didn't have any and it was still good.

I made this just as it was written except I used leftover cooked chicken, because that was what I had.  The sauce was a nice consistency (maybe because my chicken was precooked?) and it made a vey good chicken pot pie sauce.  Next time I will try Bisquick mix biscuits because I'm not a big fan of the refridgerated bicuits and because I think they would cook in the sauce better than the large puffy biscuits.

This recipie was delicious, the only thing I changed was using fresh barella mushrooms and added some stew veggies along with it. I also left out the bell and my family plowed through this delicious dish. I will definetly make this again.

Really disappointing.  I thought the sauce was way too watery and I had to cook it much longer so the biscuits would cook on the bottom.  Overall, not a keeper.

I felt it was more a chicken pot pie with all the carrots but regardless it was delicious. I made home made biscuits for the topping. Didn't use peas. used fresh carrots, onion, green bell pepper. I'll make it again this winter when I have more left over fried chicken.

This was great!  My whole family loved it!! I used leftover turkey and it was GREAT!

This was really good! Even my 17yr old liked it and he is such a critic on my cooking!

This was good but I did have to add some seasoning salt as it was a bit bland for us.

This was really tasty !! I used a small chicken that I had cooked, added a couple dashes of poultry seasoning &amp; fresh mushrooms, going in my favorites for sure..thanks Sal for the post..Love it !

It was good and healthy. Diced chicken breasts and rosted them in butter and garlic.

Very good and easy to make.  My kids wont even try it, but I thought it was very tasty.  I'm always looking for something new and different from the usual.

My husband loved this recipe....it was a bit bland so I added extra red pepper and salt and pepper.....also doubled the recipe, didn't look like it would serve 6 hungry people.

I just made a few changes after the first day- had to add some extra chicken  roasted gravy, otherwise, the family enjoyed it

I added cayenne pepper (just a pinch) family loved it!!!

Went looking for a recipe to use Grands Biscuits and ran across this one. I ditched the bell pepper and mushrooms and added french cut fresh green beans and celery. Can you say, "comfort food?!" A bit bland, next time some sage and lots of fresh ground pepper.

added all fresh veggies (green bean, mushroom, carrot, broccoli) and some spice(celery seed, pepper, salt, cayenne).  My family gobbles up every bit of this dish and the little one likes to help make it!  Perfect for cold winter nights

Excellent recipe.  My family loved this!!  Will make this again for sure, my picky 11 yrs old thought it was "the bomb"!

This recipe was very good!  My husband loved it!  The only changes I would make would be to double the main ingredients and add a few extra biscuits to even out the ratio of biscuits to filling.  Also, maybe not add as many peas as there were way more of those than anything else.  But a great and easy recipe.

Pretty much went by the recipe. A little soupy and I hope when I reheat some of the moisture will be gone. Probably celery would have been good. A little bland but everyone liked it

Recipe is something good for beginners. Added flavor with herbs and spices to give it flavor.

Everyone really enjoyed this. I used frozen peas and carrots and fresh mushrooms. I sauted the mushrooms and onions in Earth Balance® before adding the flour. I too found it a bit bland, next time I'll use a little cajun and a pinch of red pepper flakes. I didn't add the pepper, it didn't seem to fit the recipe. Thanks for sharing.

very good.  cook the biscuits a little longer next time.

I thought this was a good basic dish.  I eliminated the peppers.  It was a little bland so I added some basil and some pepper to add flavor.  This is one of my husbands favorites.

This was a good, quick weeknight meal.  I added extra spices for more flavor as some suggested.

This was a good base recipe.  Based on other reviews I made a few changes, I increased the bouillon (Better than Bouillon brand) and added a 1/4 tsp of poultry seasoning.  We added pepper to taste at the table.  
Next time we make this I will add 1/2  tsp poultry seasoning and add a pinch of celery seed.  My husband also suggested upping the broth, it needed just a bit more than the recipe made.
Overall, it was a really good recipe.  Tweak it to your taste, you won’t be disappointed.

Thought this was good, would have liked more chicken and a thicker sauce so will change those two things next time...great dish, lots of flavor.  Eliminated mushrooms and added celery and extra carrots and peas.

This is a definite keeper!! This was outstanding, I did make a couple of changes tho. My family doesn't like peppers so I substituted celery, I also used all fresh vegies. I sweated my onions in butter and olive oil which really brought out the flavor. I made this for 15 servings so I put it in a greased roasting pan. It came out delicious!!

excellant meal, I used biscuits from scratch and they worked just as good if not better than the premade ones

This recipe was WONDERFUL and easy! I added a little modification to it. When I ate A La King when I was little my mom used to serve it with rice so I added rice to the recipe. I did it with rice on the bottome of the pan then the chicken mixture and biscuits. You could just add rice tot he mixture. Of course cook the rice ahead of time. I was soooo good. 

I used the  Hawaiian rolls (biscuits) to top this off and they made this amazing, I’m a person that hates chicken pot pie’s but this was good stuff, i used a Turkey breast instead of a chicken I just eyeballed it with the amount of meat, I also used a cast iron Dutch oven that was pretty large so I should’ve doubled it up.   use two cans of mushrooms one can of peas one can of carrots I have better than bouillon chicken broth and then used all the juices from the cans itself and I probably added too much water but this is day two and I’m glad I added the extra water because my biscuits soaked most of it up and heating it up I needed a little bit of the extra juice that was in it

  I also added time and Italian seasoning to this, the turkey breast already had some type of seasoning, my boyfriend got it on clearance shelf, it wasn’t good by itself but this recipie saved it from going to the animals

We loved this! I used the perfect portions boneless breasts, omitted the peppers, used up a half bag of frozen peas &amp; carrots, fresh sliced mushrooms &amp; chopped onions. After browning &amp; cooking the chicken breasts in olive oil in a skillet, I removed them and set aside. Put mushrooms &amp; onions in skillet to brown then added frozen veg. to soften. While this was simmering I melted dbl. the amount for butter &amp;  cut up chicken into small pieces. Returned chicken to veggie/ mush combo, and finished gravy using twice amounts of flour &amp; broth as well. Added rosemary, thyme, celery salt, and white pepper. Biscuits were store brand in the tube. Baked exactly 30 mins at 350' No sogginess! Perfect

I only made a few changes, but I made this for dinner tonight, and I thought it was very good. I used boneless chicken thighs, diced carrots, onions and celery (aka mirepoix in the frozen food aisle) in place of the vegetables in the recipe, and omitted the mushrooms. Reading through other reviews, I had no problems with the biscuits not being baked enough. I would make this again.

Pretty good, even better than I expected from this recipe. I left out the peppers, and added some extra peas and carrots and some salt and pepper. Thanks for a good recipe that I will add to my regular 'rotation.'

Very bland , to watery, I would not recommend this recipe

I did not make any changes to the recipe. We found it bland. Lacking flavour and biscuits were mucking underneath!  It looked nice though!

Great vegetable chicken soup taste and the biscuit portion is easy and tasty!

Delicious!  Next time try making it with cream of chicken soup instead of chicken broth for a creamier a la king.

This is a much nicer version of chicken al king, plus the biscuits add to the dish.

Like others had, I added poultry seasoning  to the mix.   Wife liked it and will definitely make again.   Perhaps tweaking the recipe some more as I go.

My family loves this dish! I’ve made it twice, and each time it was just perfect. I used roasted chicken from the local grocery store to save time.

Very good, but I was a bit confused on the best way to cook the chicken (I boiled it to try and keep the flavor). Also - I felt it needed a bit thicker sauce, so I added 1/2 can of Cream of Mushroom soup. But it really is a tasty and pretty easy creation.

Easy  and   tasty!I added extra Fresh veggies! I know I will make this recipe again!Adding and trying it several ways....

Great recipe!  We are only two and we  had two days of left-overs. Very tasty and the Biscuits were perfect. The butter really makes it wonderful.

I thickened the stock up a bit. Used frozen peas and whole fresh baby carrots. Used a Chicken seasoning. We used frozen biscuits so we cooked to almost done then added to casserole. Very good. Omitted the mushrooms and onions. Next time will decrease the butter. Used organic chicken. Turned out well.

Overall it's a great recipe. I'd definitely add some simple seasoning to it though. I used a solid layer of bisquick dough to the top in place of pre-made biscuits and did the whole thing in my 12" iron skillet.

Easy to make and delicious. I used fresh mushrooms instead of canned.
