Cuisine: American
Serves: 6 servings
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, diced
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
- 1 cup milk
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup Bisquick mix
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). This ensures that the pie will cook evenly and thoroughly.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the 2 cups of diced cooked chicken, 1 cup of broccoli florets, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix well to ensure that the chicken, broccoli, and cheese are evenly distributed.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the 1 cup of milk, 3 eggs, and a pinch of salt and pepper to taste. Make sure the mixture is well blended.
- Gradually add the 1 cup of Bisquick mix to the milk and egg mixture, stirring continuously until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Grease a 9-inch pie dish or a similar baking dish with cooking spray or butter to prevent sticking.
- Spread the chicken, broccoli, and cheese mixture evenly across the bottom of the prepared pie dish.
- Pour the Bisquick batter over the chicken and broccoli mixture, ensuring that it covers the ingredients evenly.
- Place the pie dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Once done, remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing. This will help the pie set and make it easier to serve.
- Cut into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Impossibly Easy Chicken N Broccoli Pie!
Tips
- Use pre-cooked rotisserie chicken to save time and add extra flavor to your pie.
- Ensure your broccoli is cut into small, bite-sized florets for even distribution and better texture.
- For a golden, crispy top, place the pie on the upper oven rack during the last 5-10 minutes of baking.
- Let the pie rest for 10 minutes after baking to help it set and make slicing easier.
- For added nutrition, you can mix in additional vegetables like diced bell peppers or spinach.
- Use freshly shredded cheese for the best melting quality and flavor.
- If you don't have Bisquick, you can make a homemade batter using flour, baking powder, and a bit of oil.
