Ingredients
  

Main ingredients
  • 2 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough, cut into quarters
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese sharp cheddar adds extra punch, grate it fresh for melty goodness
  • 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese low-moisture works best so it doesn’t get rubbery
  • 1/2 cup cooked crumbled bacon
  • 1 cup sour cream full-fat makes it creamier, can use light if preferred
  • 1 packet ranch seasoning mix
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup try a lower-sodium version if watching salt
  • 1 clove fresh minced garlic optional for extra garlic kick

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the sour cream, cream of chicken soup, and ranch seasoning until smooth.
  3. Stir in the shredded chicken, cooked crumbled bacon, and biscuit pieces gently until evenly combined.
  4. Transfer the mixture into the prepared dish and spread it out for even distribution.
  5. Sprinkle cheddar and mozzarella on top to cover the surface.
Baking
  1. Bake uncovered for 30–35 minutes, or until the biscuits are cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbling.
  2. Let rest for 5 minutes before serving.
  3. Optional: sprinkle chopped green onions on top before serving.

Notes

Use rotisserie chicken to cut prep time in half. For soggy biscuits, tent with foil and bake additional 5–7 minutes, then broil 1–2 minutes to re-crisp the top. Add sun-dried tomatoes or pesto for a flavor twist.
