# Expert Advice:

01 -
  • It uses that beloved Red Lobster biscuit mix in a completely unexpected way that somehow works better than the original.
  • The whole thing comes together in under an hour, even on nights when youre too tired to think.
  • Leftovers taste even better the next day when the biscuit topping soaks up all the creamy filling.
02 -
  • Do not overmix the biscuit batter or the topping will bake up tough instead of fluffy and tender.
  • Let the casserole rest after baking or the filling will be too soupy when you try to serve it.
  • Use low-sodium broth because the biscuit mix and soup already carry plenty of salt.
03 -
  • Brush extra melted butter on the biscuit topping halfway through baking for an even richer, crispier crust.
  • Use a mix of white and dark meat chicken for more flavor and moisture in every bite.
  • Let the biscuit batter rest for a minute or two before topping the casserole, it makes spreading easier and the texture lighter.
