Note
Ensure the frozen vegetables are thawed before adding them to the skillet to prevent excess moisture from thinning the sauce too much.
You can substitute the cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom soup for a different flavor profile.
If you prefer a traditional crust, you can use store-bought pie crusts or puff pastry instead of the biscuit topping.
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave or oven until heated through.
For added crunch, sprinkle a little extra pepper or dried herbs on top of the biscuits before baking.
