CHICKEN POT PIE FILLING OVER RICE RECIPES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 13x9-inch (3-quart) glass baking dish with cooking spray.
• In 12-inch nonstick skillet, melt 4 tablespoons of the butter over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook 2 to 3 minutes or until tender. Sprinkle flour on top of onions; cook and stir 30 seconds. Gradually add broth; heat to simmering, stirring frequently.
• Stir in rice, chicken, frozen vegetables, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook 4 to 5 minutes or until mixture is bubbly and slightly thickened. Remove from heat; stir in whipping cream. Transfer hot mixture to baking dish; cover and keep warm.
• Separate dough into 8 biscuits; cut each biscuit in half, split through the middle, to get two rounds. Cut each round in half crosswise to get two half-moon shapes. Carefully place on top of hot mixture in baking dish, overlapping slightly.
• In small microwavable bowl, melt remaining 2 tablespoons butter; brush on top of biscuit pieces. Sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until biscuits are golden brown. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Steps:

• In a 5 qt pot:
• 1) Cook chopped onions and celery in the butter for 10 minutes on medium heat.
• 2) Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• 3) Add both cans of soup, chicken stock,sage, and thyme to pot and mix thoroughly, turn heat down to med-low.
• 4) Add Chicken, Rice, and Veggies mix thoroughly and heat to a simmer.
• 5) Using a 9x13 pan (we use glass) (lightly spray if using metal) pour heated filling into pan.
• 6)Bake covered for 30-40 minutes or until bubbling.
• 7) Remove from oven and let stand for 5 minutes until serving.
• **Optional Cheese or Pot Pie Topping**.
• At step 6 , uncover sprinkle with cheese and return to oven until cheese melts. Continue with step 7 and Enjoy!
• For Pot Pie Crust.
• After step 4, while filling is warming to a simmer mix the Bisquick, Milk, Sage and Thyme. After pouring the hot filling into your pan spread the top with your Bisquick mixture. Bake at 350 for 35-40 minutes uncovered or until Bisquick crust has risen and lightly browned. Remove from oven and let sit for 5 min before serving.
• ***Cooks Note***.
• Play with the recipe and make it your own. If you and yours like garlic (like we do!) add some to the filling mix and the Bisquick crust mix to your liking. We have also added onion powder, red pepper flakes if you like some heat, mixed the cheese in and still used the Bisquick crust. Really your imagination is your limitation. :o) If you don't have time for baking you could serve this right out of your 5 qt pan once heated through and the frozen veggies hot. We have done this too on those busy, got to get there nights.
• Wishing you and yours a hearty enjoyable meal!
• *** All ovens cook differently, the times given are a good rule of thumb but make sure you check periodically while baking to see what time frame works in your oven).
