Ingredients
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Grease a 10 x 1 1/2-inch pie plate.
- Mix the chicken, peas and carrots, mushrooms, and onion in the plate.
- Beat remaining ingredients until smooth, about 15 seconds with a blender or 1 minute with a hand beater.
- Pour the batter into the pie plate with the mixture.
- Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean, about 30 to 35 minutes.
- Cool for 5 minutes before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For a flavorful twist, consider adding some thyme or rosemary to the chicken mixture. You can substitute the chicken with turkey or a vegetarian alternative like chickpeas for a different protein source. If you don't have Bisquick, use equal parts of flour and baking powder, mixing in a little salt to approximate the baking mix's flavor.
Serving Suggestions
This Impossible Chicken Pot Pie is perfect for a cozy family dinner. Serve it with a side salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal. It also pairs beautifully with Zesty Potato Soup for a comforting combination. For a more filling option, consider adding some crusty bread for dipping.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place individual servings in the microwave for 1-2 minutes or until heated through. Alternatively, you can reheat the entire pie in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 15-20 minutes, covering with foil to prevent over-browning.
