This dish has been around forever! It was a staple in my home growing up, and now that I have kids of my own, I understand why. So quick and easy, and they just gobble it up. Great with a tossed salad on the side.
Ingredients
- 1 T butter
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cups chopped broccoli
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
- 1 cup cooked chicken, cubed
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups milk
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 t baking powder
- 1 t salt
- 1/4 t pepper
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Melt butter in an oven proof skillet over medium heat and sauté the onion until soft, about 5 minutes.
- Add the broccoli and chicken and sprinkle with 1 cup of the cheese.
- Whisk together milk, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt and pepper in a medium bowl and pour into the skillet. Alternatively, you can pour into a glass pie plate (as shown).
- Transfer skillet to preheated oven and bake 20-25 minutes. If using a pie plate, increase cooking time to 30 -35 minutes, or until firmly set in the centre.
- Remove from oven and sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake or broil a couple more minutes until cheese is melted and bubbling.
- Let set for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
*To make your own Bisquick combine 1/2 flour with 3/4 t baking powder and 1/8t salt. Add in 1/2 T butter and squish together with your fingers to make a coarse "meal" like consistency.
