🍗 Ingredients
- ½ cup butter (1 stick, melted)
- 4 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie recommended)
- 1 (12 oz) bag frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 (11.36 oz) box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (with seasoning packet)
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth (about 2 cups)
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
- Seasonings to taste: garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper
👩🍳 Instructions
1️⃣ Preheat and Prepare the Dish
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish. Pour the melted butter evenly into the bottom of the dish.
2️⃣ Add Chicken and Vegetables
Layer the shredded chicken over the butter. Then, scatter the frozen vegetables evenly on top. Sprinkle with garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper for added flavor.
3️⃣ Mix the Biscuit Layer
In a large bowl, whisk together the milk and Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (plus the included seasoning packet) until smooth.
Pour this mixture gently over the chicken and vegetables — do not stir. The layering is key to getting that cobbler-style texture!
4️⃣ Prepare the Sauce
In the same bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over the biscuit layer — again, do not stir.
5️⃣ Bake Until Golden and Set
Place the dish in the oven and bake uncovered for 55–65 minutes, or until the top is deeply golden and the edges are bubbling. The biscuit topping should be fluffy inside and crisp on the surface.
6️⃣ Let It Rest and Serve
Once done, remove from the oven and let the casserole rest for 10 minutes before serving. This helps the layers set and enhances the flavor.
🌟 Tips for the Perfect Chicken Cobbler
- Use rotisserie chicken for the best flavor and texture with minimal prep.
- Don’t stir the layers — that’s what creates the cobbler-style magic!
- Add a pinch of thyme or rosemary for extra savory aroma.
- Want it creamier? Swap the milk for half-and-half.
- Reheats beautifully — perfect for meal prep or next-day leftovers.
