When life gets chaotic, the one thing that can bring everyone to the table—smiling and satisfied—is a warm, creamy, cheesy casserole fresh out of the oven. And nothing hits the spot quite like Chicken Bubble Biscuit Bake.
This dish isn’t just dinner—it’s a hug in a baking dish. It’s the kind of meal your kids will ask for again, your guests will secretly write down, and you’ll turn to on busy weeknights when time is short and appetites are big.
🏡 Why It’s Called “Bubble” Biscuit Bake
It gets its fun name from the way the biscuit dough “bubbles up” through the creamy mixture while baking. As the casserole cooks, the biscuits puff up and form golden, flaky pockets of goodness throughout the dish—kind of like dumplings, but with a delicious Southern twist.
The result? Every bite is filled with savory shredded chicken, a luscious sauce, melted cheese, and tender biscuit bites that soak in all the flavor.

Even better, it’s a one-dish wonder—less cleanup, more time for family.

📝 Ingredients:
Main Casserole:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken works great)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 can (16.3 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough (like Pillsbury Grands)
- 1 tablespoon melted butter (optional, for brushing)
Optional Add-Ins:
- 1/2 cup frozen peas or chopped steamed broccoli
- Crumbled cooked bacon
- Dash of hot sauce for spice
🥣 Instructions:
🔹 Step 1: Preheat Your Oven
Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13 inch baking dish or similar casserole dish.
🔹 Step 2: Mix the Filling
In a large bowl, combine:
- Cream of chicken soup
- Sour cream
- Shredded chicken
- Cheese
- Spices and herbs
Stir everything until smooth and creamy. If you’re adding veggies or bacon, mix those in now.
🔹 Step 3: Cut and Add the Biscuits
Open the can of biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit into quarters (or eighths for smaller bites). Gently fold the biscuit pieces into the chicken mixture until all are coated.
🔹 Step 4: Assemble and Bake
Pour the entire mixture into your greased baking dish and spread it evenly. Make sure the biscuit pieces are distributed throughout.
(Optional: Brush the top with melted butter for a golden finish.)
Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden and cooked through, and the casserole is bubbly.
🔹 Step 5: Rest and Serve
Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving—it’ll thicken slightly as it cools.
Garnish with a bit of fresh parsley or extra cheese if you’d like!
🧡 Serving Suggestions:
- Serve with a side salad or roasted veggies for a balanced meal.
- Leftovers reheat beautifully in the microwave or oven.
- Make it ahead: You can prep the filling and refrigerate overnight. Just add biscuits before baking.
📝 Pro Tip:
Make this once, and you’ll start keeping biscuit dough in your fridge on purpose.
