For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as mushrooms or celery, according to your preference. If you don't have crescent roll dough, puff pastry can also be used for a flakier crust.
This comforting Chicken Pot Pie Casserole reimagines the classic comfort food into an easy-to-assemble dish. Tender chicken, vibrant vegetables, and aromatic herbs are enveloped in a creamy sauce, crowned with golden, spiraled crescents for a delightful twist.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish.
Melt butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and cook, stirring often, until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in flour, thyme, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper; cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
Gradually whisk in milk and chicken broth into the flour mixture, ensuring no lumps form. Cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and bubbles, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, and fresh parsley. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.
Unroll crescent dough sheets onto a clean cutting board. Cut each dough sheet crosswise into 12 (1-inch) strips, resulting in 24 strips. Gently roll each strip between your palms to form an elegant spiral.
Pour the warm chicken mixture into the prepared casserole dish. Arrange the dough spirals artfully on top of the filling, ensuring even coverage.
Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is bubbling and the crescent dough spirals are golden brown and cooked through, approximately 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from the oven and let stand, uncovered, for 15 minutes before serving to allow the filling to set slightly.
For a richer flavor, use homemade chicken broth. Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as mushrooms or celery, according to your preference. If you don't have crescent roll dough, puff pastry can also be used for a flakier crust.
