Chicken Pot Pie

Easy and delicious!

Chicken Pot Pie

3-4 chicken breasts, cut into 1/2" cubes
Salt and pepper
Poultry seasoning
3-4 carrots, peeled, sliced
8 oz. sliced fresh mushrooms
1 smallish onion, chopped
1 small baking potato, peeled, chopped
1 c. fresh or frozen corn kernels
1 c. frozen green peas
1 can cream of mushroom soup
1 c. chicken stock
1½ c. Bisquick
1 c. milk
2 Tbsp. melted butter

Preheat oven to 350° F and lightly grease a 9x13 glass baking dish. Season chicken with salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning, to taste. In a large sauté pan over medium heat, brown chicken with carrot, mushrooms, onion, and potato (and S&P to taste) until chicken is browned, onion and carrot are tender, and mushrooms have released their liquid. In the last 2 minutes, add FRESH corn. (If corn is frozen, just add it with the peas.) Remove from heat and allow to cool a few minutes. In prepared 9x13 dish, layer chicken mixture with corn and peas. In a separate bowl, whisk together soup and chicken stock, and season with salt and pepper. Pour over casserole. Whisk together Bisquick and milk, and pour over casserole. Drizzle butter over casserole. Bake until the topping is golden brown, 30 to 40 minutes.

Note: to make this easier, you can substitute frozen for a lot of these vegetables, but I enjoyed the taste of fresh, and it didn't take a whole lot longer to prep and sauté the fresh vegetables. Also, you can substitute shredded rotisserie chicken for the raw then sautéed chicken. Just heat it in the sauté pan with the poultry seasoning. DON'T LEAVE OUT THE POULTRY SEASONING. It makes such a big difference!
