Easy Chicken Pot Pie
Since I was a little kid, pot pies were regular items at dinner time, they were cheap, mass produced, and available in every store. So to get away from the mass produce pot pies, I have several pot pies listed, one is even cooked in a slow cooker. This is another variant of a baked pot pie, with no pie crust needed. This one states chicken but turkey would be really good too, think leftovers for the meat. I look forward to testing this out for sure. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 2 cups chicken, breast or thighs, cooked and chopped, or even turkey
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 onion, diced
- 1 cup frozen peas and carrots
- 1 can condensed cream of chicken soup, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/2 cup chicken stock, fresh or from powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Lawry's Seasoned Salt, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 1/2 cups Bisquick Mix, OR make from a shortcut
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup butter, melted, this is 1/4 of a standard block
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180 C and get out a 9 in pie dish, glass would be perfect, and lightly butter that.
- Heat a non stick pan with the 1 tablespoon of butter and cook the onion for 5 minutes over medium heat, then add in frozen peas and carrots, chicken, soup, chicken broth, Lawry's seasoned salt, and the black pepper. Mix well then pour into your prepared pie pan. Stir together the Bisquick mix and milk and pour over the casserole. Drizzle the melted butter over the top and bake for 30-35 minutes. Serve.
Notes
If you use leftover chicken or turkey, and make the shortcuts, this is truly a low cost dish to prepare. Using chicken breasts bought specifically for this go with 3-4 breasts or go with thighs, or a little of each for both dark and white meat in the pie. One kilo of breasts is about 60 Baht, I will use that figure. Everything else is minimal or on hand. For 6 servings, this is about 30 cents per serving.
Shortcuts: Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup, Lawry's Seasoned Salt, Bisquick Mix.
