Meet the ultimate comfort food! The creamy flavors of chicken skillet pie meet fluffy biscuits to create a delicious dinner option. Seconds are a must-have.
The best part of one-pot dishes is how easy they are to make and clean up. This buffalo chicken skillet pie is no different, plus it tastes creamy and completely comforting. Usually, pot pies are topped with a pastry-rich layer, but this low-carb version uses fluffy and cheesy biscuits that are also gluten-free.
Almond flour is a great flour replacement as it has a slightly sweet and nutty taste and is incredibly nutritious. This flour substitute is high in protein and contains good amounts of monounsaturated fats, vitamin E, and fiber. When it’s combined with mozzarella cheese, eggs, cream, and butter, the result is a light and fluffy mixture that tops off the pie in a delicious way.
To put the “buffalo” in buffalo chicken, this recipe calls for hot sauce. We love Frank’s hot sauce, but you can always substitute it with a hot sauce of choice, like sriracha. Keep in mind that this amount might have to be adjusted, especially if you want to cook this meal for children.
Making this pie extra convenient is the shredded chicken. You can buy pre-shredded chicken or use leftover chicken from your fridge that you shred beforehand.
