Chicken Tikka Masala Biscuit Casserole

How to Make Chicken Tikka Masala Casserole

Knock out a few minutes of prep and throw this casserole in the oven for a stand-alone fix-it and forget-it bake that’s different than your average casserole. We’ll walk you through the quick steps here, but keep reading for the full recipe.

Cook the Veggies

While your oven heats up, cook bell pepper and onions in a skillet until they’re nicely browned. The onions should be soft and browned on the edges, and the skins of the peppers should be a little blistered.

Add the Chicken and Sauce

Shredded rotisserie chicken makes this recipe quick and easy. You can use any leftover chicken that you have on hand. Stir the chicken and the jarred tikka masala sauce into the vegetable mixture in the skillet, and remove from the heat. This step is important because you need to cool down the mixture before adding the raw biscuits and cheese.

Cut the Biscuits and Add to Skillet

Open the can, and separate the dough into 8 biscuits, then cut each in six pieces. The easiest way to do this is to cut each biscuit in half, then cut each half into 3 wedge-shaped pieces. Stir the biscuit pieces, a few at a time, into the mixture in the skillet and top with half of the cheese.

Add to Dish and Top with Cheese

Now spoon the mixture into the casserole dish, and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. We recommend spooning the mixture into the dish so that you can create an even layer of the mixture without getting sauce on the sides of the dish, which can lead to burning. Then, bake and serve!
