Description
Hearty chicken pot pie with Bisquick creates a comforting classic that blends creamy filling and flaky crust. Home cooks can easily prepare this satisfying meal with simple ingredients and minimal kitchen effort.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup chopped or shredded cooked chicken
- 1.25 cups (298 ml / 1 ¼ cups) thawed and drained frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 can (10.5 oz / 298 g) condensed cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup Bisquick mix
- ½ cup (120 ml) milk
- 1 large egg
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Set the oven to 400F (200C) and lightly coat a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray to ensure easy release.
- Blend Filling Components: In a mixing bowl, combine shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, and condensed chicken soup, thoroughly mixing until ingredients are evenly distributed and create a harmonious filling.
- Create Bisquick Batter: Whisk Bisquick mix, milk, and beaten egg until the mixture transforms into a smooth, velvety texture without any lumps or inconsistencies.
- Layer and Assemble: Carefully pour the Bisquick batter over the chicken and vegetable mixture, spreading it uniformly to completely cover the filling and create a seamless base.
- Bake and Monitor: Transfer the pie dish to the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, watching for a rich golden-brown crust and bubbling edges that signal the filling has heated thoroughly.
- Rest and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the pot pie rest for 5 minutes, allowing the filling to stabilize and ensuring clean, appetizing portions when served warm.
Notes
- Optimize Chicken Texture: Shred chicken finely and ensure it’s fully cooked before mixing with other ingredients to prevent dryness and maintain tender, juicy consistency.
- Manage Vegetable Moisture: Drain canned or frozen vegetables completely to prevent excess liquid that could make the pot pie soggy and compromise the crust’s crispness.
- Control Batter Consistency: Whisk Bisquick mixture carefully, avoiding overmixing to maintain a light, fluffy crust that doesn’t become dense or tough during baking.
- Customize Dietary Needs: Substitute regular milk with almond or oat milk for lactose-free version, and use gluten-free Bisquick mix for a celiac-friendly alternative.
