Bisquick Barbecue Chicken Bake

Grace and I were sick most of last week and each night that the dinner hour rolled around, all I really wanted to do was call for pizza delivery.  While most of the meals on my menu plan for last week were on the easy side, they just didn't seem simple enough while not feeling well!

I saw this recipe and boy did it sound delicious, but I didn't want to have to cut up and saute raw chicken.  Not that cutting up raw chicken is difficult or anything, I just didn't feel like doing it!  I knew I had a container of Zesty Crock Pot BBQ Chicken in the freezer and by using that, I could make this an even quicker, throw-together meal!

We had some leftover corn in the fridge, too, so I decided to toss a little on top of the dish to use it up before it became a science project in the back of the refrigerator.  Joe wasn't as fond of it with the corn and I was, while I thought the meal reminded me of biscuits, barbecue chicken and corn on the cob, Joe just thought he'd enjoy it more without the corn.

Now, this isn't the most photogenic meal, but it worked in a pinch!  I had all the ingredients on hand and clean up was super-easy since it's a one pan meal!

5. Sprinkle with 3/4 cup of cheese.
6. Top the cheese with the barbecue chicken.

This recipe is a keeper!  I think my favorite part of this meal is that it gives me another use for Zesty Crock Pot BBQ Chicken!  When I make a crock pot full of this delicious barbecue chicken, we usually have enough for sandwiches for 2 nights, a batch of enchiladas, and enough to add to the freezer for another night or two of sandwiches.  I love having another option for the leftovers!
