Step 2: Make the Creamy Chicken Mixture
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, sour cream, 1 cup of grated cheese, Ranch dressing mix, and cooked bacon. Stir until fully incorporated and creamy.
Step 3: Prepare the Biscuits
Open the can of refrigerator biscuits and cut each biscuit into 4 equal pieces. Gently toss the biscuit pieces into the chicken mixture to coat them evenly.
Step 4: Assemble the Casserole
Pour the chicken and biscuit mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it evenly, then sprinkle the remaining 1 cup of grated cheese over the top for a bubbly, golden finish.
Step 5: Bake to Perfection
Bake in the preheated oven for 25–35 minutes, or until the casserole is bubbly and the biscuit pieces have puffed up and turned golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
