Notes

Nutrition information is approximate. Values for 2 cans of Pillsbury™ Buttermilk Refrigerated Biscuits (from a Value Pack), 2 cups of chicken, and 12 ounces of cream of chicken soup were used in the calculation.

Be sure to use cooked chicken when making this recipe. Leftover rotisserie chicken is a great option. In a pinch, you can use prepackaged cooked chicken that you find in the meat section next to lunch meat.
