I doubled the amount of chicken, reduced the basil to 2 teaspoons but added 1 tsp of crushed dried rosemary. I used 1 and 1/2 cups of frozen seasoning mix (onions, celery, peppers, parsley) instead of the chopped fresh onion and celery, and used 1 cup of frozen peas and carrots instead of fresh carrots. Increased the broth to a 48 oz can and 1 14 oz can. Awesome flavor! I made it with rice and gave the family the option of having the biscuits or rice underneath.. most chose the rice, and ate the biscuits on the side.. Served 3 kids and 3 adults with big appetites.

I used reduced sodium chicken broth and then regretted it; I had to add salt to mine once done (and I normally don't add salt to anything), but my husband liked it the way it was.

This one is good for an all-in-one meal and easy.

This recipe just became a new favorite! It's like a chicken pot pie, but better! The sauce is delicious. I eliminated the corn & replaced it with two small russet potatoes, chopped. And instead of frozen biscuits, I substituted Pillsbury Golden Layers Honey Biscuits. So good!

This recipe was very good and easy to make! I had the taste of chicken a la king without my having to go to the store to get evaporated milk. I think you could easily add diced potatoes to this to make it even heartier.
