Cheesy Italian Chicken Pot Pie
This sounds really good, but because of the cheese used, this is not a low cost meal. On my to cook list. Links to the shortcuts are listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups chicken, breast or thighs, or both, cooked and chopped, or even turkey
- 2 cups Mozzarella Cheese, shredded, this is one 200 gram block, divided
- 1/3 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon dried basil
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup tomato sauce, OR make from a shortcut
- 1/2 cup Bisquick Mix, OR make from a shortcut
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 2 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 205 C and either butter a pie dish (glass would be best) or use a cooking spray or shortcut for that.
- Mix the chicken, 1/2 cup of the Mozzarella cheese, the Parmesan cheese, salt, oregano, basil, garlic powder, and tomato sauce, then spoon into the prepared pie dish and smooth that into an even layer.
- In a separate bowl, stir Bisquick, milk, pepper, and eggs until well blended. Pour over chicken mixture. Bake uncovered for 35 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella cheese then bake for 5 more minutes. Allow to rest for 10 minutes before slicing. Serve.
Notes
Chicken will cost about 60 Baht/kilo, for 1 1/2 cups, use about 3 chicken breasts or a combination of breasts and thighs, or leftover chicken or turkey which would be ideal and lower cost. The Mozzarella cheese will cost 142 Baht for one block of 200 grams, shredded that is about 2 cups. For the Parmesan cheese, this will cost about 100 Baht. For 6 servings, this is about $1.48.
Shortcuts: Tomato Sauce, Bisquick Mix, Non Stick Cooking Spray.
