Bisquick-Topped Chicken Pot Pie

  • Author: Lana
  • Total Time: 50 minutes

Description

Bisquick-Topped Chicken Pot Pie is a comforting and easy take on the classic chicken pot pie, with a golden, fluffy Bisquick crust that adds a light, biscuit-like texture. The filling is made with tender chunks of chicken, carrots, peas, and celery, all simmered in a creamy, savory sauce made from chicken broth and a bit of cream or milk. The best part? Instead of a traditional pie crust, a quick Bisquick batter is poured over the filling before baking, creating a deliciously soft and slightly crisp topping. As it bakes, the Bisquick forms a light, golden crust that perfectly complements the creamy, hearty filling. It’s a simple, satisfying dish that’s perfect for family dinners or a comforting weeknight meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Here’s what you’ll need to make Bisquick-Topped Chicken Pot Pie:

  • 1 cup frozen peas and carrots (or a mixed veggie blend)
  • 1 cup frozen corn (optional)

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 cup chicken broth (use halal-certified if needed)
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream or whole milk
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste

  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley (optional)

For the Bisquick Topping:

  • ½ cup milk
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Ingredient Highlights

  • Bisquick Mix: The Bisquick mix is the secret ingredient for the fluffy topping. It simplifies the process of making a pie crust and gives it a light, biscuit-like texture.

Instructions

Step-by-Step Instructions

Follow these easy steps to make the perfect Bisquick-Topped Chicken Pot Pie:

Prepare the Chicken Pot Pie Filling:

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 9-inch pie dish or an 8×8-inch baking pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
  2. Cook the Vegetables: In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, and cook for about 3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
  3. Make the Creamy Sauce: Stir in the flour to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly to avoid burning. Gradually pour in the chicken broth while stirring to prevent lumps from forming. Add the heavy cream and continue stirring until the sauce thickens, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add the Chicken and Vegetables: Stir in the cooked chicken, peas and carrots, corn (if using), dried thyme, and parsley. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the mixture to simmer for a few minutes until everything is heated through and well combined.
  5. Transfer to Baking Dish: Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Prepare the Bisquick Topping:

  1. Mix the Bisquick Topping: In a separate bowl, whisk together the Bisquick mix, milk, melted butter, and egg until a smooth batter forms. The mixture will be thick but pourable.
  2. Top the Filling: Carefully pour the Bisquick topping over the chicken filling, spreading it out with a spatula to cover the entire surface. Don’t worry if it’s not perfectly even; it will spread as it bakes.

Bake the Chicken Pot Pie:

  1. Bake the Pot Pie: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling around the edges. A toothpick or fork inserted into the topping should come out clean.
  2. Cool and Serve: Allow the pot pie to cool for a few minutes before serving. This helps the filling to set and makes it easier to cut into servings.

Cut and Serve:

  1. Slice and Serve: Cut the pot pie into generous portions and serve hot. The creamy filling and fluffy Bisquick topping make for a comforting meal that’s perfect with a side of salad or roasted vegetables.
