Ingredients
Scale
Butter
- ½ cup butter (1 stick, melted)
Chicken and Vegetables
- 4 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie recommended)
- 1 (12 oz) bag frozen mixed vegetables
Biscuit Topping
- 1 (11.36 oz) box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (including seasoning packet)
- 2 cups whole milk
Sauce
- 1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth (about 2 cups)
- 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
Seasonings
- Garlic powder (to taste)
- Onion powder (to taste)
- Black pepper (to taste)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prep Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease the sides of a large 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
- Add Butter: Melt the butter and pour it evenly into the bottom of your prepared baking dish, ensuring the surface is well coated.
- Layer Chicken: Spread the shredded chicken evenly in a single layer over the melted butter in the baking dish.
- Add Vegetables and Season: Distribute the frozen mixed vegetables evenly over the chicken, then sprinkle with your desired seasonings such as garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Use salt sparingly if needed, because other ingredients contain salt.
- Prepare Biscuit Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, the included seasoning packet, and whole milk until just combined. Carefully pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetable layers in the baking dish. Do not stir.
- Mix Soup and Broth: In the same bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour this mixture evenly over all the layers in the baking dish without stirring.
- Bake: Place the casserole uncovered on the center rack of your preheated oven and bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the top is a deep golden brown. Check for doneness at 55 minutes, as ovens vary.
- Rest and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. This helps the sauce to thicken and makes serving easier. Enjoy your warm chicken cobbler casserole!
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds great flavor.
- Feel free to substitute mixed vegetables with your favorite seasonal vegetables.
- Adjust seasonings to your taste, but be cautious with salt because the soup and biscuit mix contain salt.
- Letting the casserole rest ensures a thicker, creamier sauce.
- Check the casserole towards the end of baking to avoid overcooking or burning the biscuit topping.
