Quick and Easy Chicken Pot Pie

I found this on-line somewhere and tucked it away to make someday. Today was that day! I'm sorry I waited so long -- it's very easy to make and very tasty. It would be a great dish for a potluck.

1 can (1-lb 2.5-oz) + 1/3 can Progresso Rich & Hearty Chicken Pot Pie Soup

1 cup sour cream
1/2 cup milk
1 tsp cornstarch (whisked into the milk)
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt or TT
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper or TT

1 (1-pound) package frozen mixed vegetables, thawed
3 cups chopped cooked chicken

1 1/2 cups Bisquick baking mix (I used Trader Joe’s whole-wheat biscuit mix)

3/4 cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese

1/2 cup milk

1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 13x9x2-inch baking dish.

2. In a large bowl, combine soup, and next 7 ingredients. Stir in vegetables and chicken. Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish; set aside.

3. In a small bowl, combine baking mix and cheese. Add milk, stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Drop biscuits by heaping tablespoonfuls evenly over chicken mixture. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, or until biscuits are browned and pot pie is hot and bubbly.

NOTES:

The next time I make this, I'm going to double the amount of biscuit “crust” and also use just a tad more milk in it. The amount that the recipe calls for seems a bit scanty to me, and, at the same time, is a bit too dense. A thinner mix will spread out more evenly and make a nicer crust.

If you want to make it a bit more sinful, you can brush or drizzle the crust with some melted butter after baking.

Chicken Pot Pie

It looks delicious.  Will have to give it a try.

Even Easier Variation!

Next time you make chicken pot pie filling, you can skip all the stuff about a crust or a biscuit topping if you don't want to bother or if you're out of time - because it's also very, very good over wide egg noodles.

When my partner was alive, this was known around our house as Chicken Not Pie.

Was great

Charlie,
I made this for dinner tonight cold outside so was perfect, I lacked the bisquick in the pantry...so like any good southerner I improvised and used a crescent roll I had in the fridge and put a butter egg wash and baked. The inside was delicious and the crescent roll made for a lighter feel, but more calories with the egg and butter wash.

Love your recipes....thanks a million for sharing; as Carl said this is a keeper!!

Awesome, Doug! Nothing wrong with improvising!

Putting it over egg noodles is also a good idea except that the carbs would be a no-no for me, especially since this is a borderline dish as it is -- but using whole-wheat biscuit mix does diminish the "caloric sinning" to some degree! ;P

I havent made

A chicken pie lately, here in the South we never put vegetables in it, just chicken gravy and the crust.
