Chicken, Cheddar, Bacon & Ranch

Back in the day, Bisquick Impossible Pies were all the rage. I love the Impossible Taco Pie. We make it all the time. Since I had a big box of Bisquick in the pantry, I decided to play around with the recipe. This Impossible Crack Chicken Pie is the first experiment. Chicken, cheddar, bacon, and ranch – YUM!

The Bisquick Impossible Pie or Impossibly Easy Pie is basically a quiche. There are no pie crusts. The Bisquick baking mix is mixed in with the eggs and milk to make the crust. It bakes along with the filling. This has quickly become one of our favorite weeknight meals!

What is Bisquick?

Bisquick is a pre-made baking mix sold by Betty Crocker. It is made with flour, shortening, salt, sugar, and baking powder.

If you don’t have access to a box of Bisquick, you can make a quick homemade Bisquick mix.

In a food processor pulse 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 1⁄2 teaspoons of baking powder, 1⁄2 teaspoon of salt, and 2 1⁄2 tablespoons Crisco shortening. If you don’t have a food processor, you can use a pastry cutter to cut the shortening into the flour mixture.

What is an Impossible Pie?

This chicken pie is very easy to make with only a few simple ingredients! In a large skillet over medium heat, cook bacon until crispy. In a medium bowl, stir together cooked chicken, cooked bacon, shredded cheddar cheese, and ranch dressing. Season with salt and black pepper, if desired. Spread chicken mixture into the bottom of a pie plate or quiche pan. In a large bowl, whisk together Bisquick, eggs, and milk or cream. Pour the batter on top of the chicken mixture and bake until golden brown. Garnish the pie with fresh parsley. Let the pie rest for 5 minutes before cutting slices with a knife.
