Instructions
1
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
2
In a 1.5-quart Corning Ware round dish, combine the can of Cream of Chicken Soup, the chunked chicken along with any juices, and the drained can of Veg-All mixed vegetables. Stir well until all the ingredients are evenly combined. There’s no need to worry about small lumps from the soup as they will blend during cooking.
3
In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together the Bisquick, milk, and egg (if using). Mixing well will create a smoother batter. The egg adds a little richness and puffiness to the crust but is not essential.
4
Pour the crust mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetable mixture in the baking dish. It’s okay if they mix together slightly; the crust will rise as it bakes.
5
Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 30 minutes, or until the crust is golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
6
Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool for about 10 minutes before serving to let the filling set slightly.
