Prep To Make This Chicken Pot Pie Biscuit Recipe
This is one of our semi-homemade easy camping meals that does not require a lot of prep.
You’ll need to chop a bit of onion and garlic. But the peas, carrots, beans and corn are already prepped because you are just using a frozen pack of mixed veggies.
The other thing you’ll need to prep is the chicken. It needs to be cut into bite sized pieces.
Camp Cooking Tip: Cube chicken at home and freeze in sealable plastic food bags for quick preparation at the campsite.
The last thing you need to do is cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters.

Methods Of Cooking Chicken Pot Pie Recipes
If you are making this as one of our campfire recipes, you’ll need to get your fire going in order to cook with hot coals from a nice hardwood … alternatively, you can use charcoal briquettes.
You can also make this as one of our camp stove recipes if you have a Dutch oven dome, so get your stove ready for cooking on a level surface.

Steps To Make Campfire Dutch Oven Pot Pie
Step 1. Prepare your ingredients as directed.
Step 2. Prepare your heat source for baking at an oven temperature of 350 F degrees. You will need 25 total coals = 17 top / 8 bottom if you are using a 12-inch Dutch oven. If you are using a different oven size, check our Dutch oven temperature chart to see how many coals you will need.
Camp Cooking Tip: When you start your Dutch oven recipes by sautéing, you’ll have all of the coals under the oven … then you need to redistribute the coals for baking. For this chicken pot pie Dutch oven recipe you will leave 8 coals on the bottom and move 17 coals to the top of the lid for baking.
Step 3. Brown the ingredients. You will melt the butter then sauté the onion, garlic and veggies. Then, you’ll add the chicken to brown it.
Step 4. Add the seasonings and liquids. It’s time to add the flour, sage, thyme, salt and pepper to cook the flour a bit. Then you’ll add the chicken broth and evaporated milk.
Step 5. Top with biscuits and bake. You’ll scatter the biscuit pieces across the top of the chicken mixture for baking with the lid on for about 20 – 25 minutes.
Camp Cooking Tip: To ensure even baking, turn the Dutch oven and the lid 1/4 turns in opposite directions every 10 – 15 minutes.
Step 6. Let cool slightly and serve. After the biscuits are golden brown, you’ll remove the Dutch oven lid and set the oven aside to stand about 5 minutes before serving this meal
Pairings For One Pot Camping Meals
When you are serving camping dinner recipes that have the meat, veggies and bread cooked in one pot, you really don’t need to serve anything else. When I make this type of meal, I often serve it with a simple dinner salad on the side.
