Bisquick chicken pot pie without cream of chicken soup

Q: Why does my chicken pot pie come out watery?

If your chicken potpie seems runny after its baked, chances are that it wasnt baked long enough. The ingredients need enough bake time to set up and create a thick filling. If your crust is getting too golden or dark before the end of your bake time, place a sheet of foil over the top to keep it from burning.

Filling

Store bough rotisserie chicken shredded (or leftovers from night before)
1 small Onion diced
1 cup Carrots diced
1 cup Frozen or Canned Corn
1/2 Frozen or Canned Peas
1/4 cup Butter
1/3 cup Flour
2 cups Chicken Broth we use the powdered broth and mix with water
2/3 cups Milk
1/4 tsp each of Salt Pepper and Celery Seed
1/2 tsp dried Parsley

Crust

1 cup Bisquick see homemade link above! you may need a little bit more if your consistency isn't thick enough
1/2 cup Milk
1 Egg

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F
In a pan heat the butter over medium heat, cook onions until softened.
Stir in the flour, salt, pepper and herbs. It will create a thick paste, let cook for 30 seconds once combined.
Slowly add in your milk and chicken broth and simmer until thick (this should only take about a minute).
Remove from the heat and add in your vegetables and chicken, mix well and add to a deep casserole dish. Set aside.
In a medium bowl combine the ingredients for the crust, mix until there are no lumps. It should be slightly thicker than a pancake batter. If you need to, add more bisquick (a little bit at a time).
Pour the crust mixture over the chicken mixture and place in the oven on the center rack.
Cook for about 30 minutes or until the crust is a nice golden brown!

That’s it! I told you it was easy! Now go dig in and enjoy…although I must warn you, when hubby and I make this we often go for seconds and thirds!
