Description
Chicken Cobbler is a hearty, comforting dish that combines tender shredded chicken and savory vegetables in a creamy gravy, all topped with a golden, buttery biscuit crust. Inspired by the classic fruit cobbler concept, this savory version is a crowd-pleaser perfect for weeknight dinners or cozy gatherings. Each spoonful delivers a warm, homey taste that feels like a hug in a bowl.
Ingredients
2 cups cooked shredded chicken
2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
2 cups chicken broth
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
Ingredients for the topping:
2 cups biscuit baking mix (such as Bisquick)
1 cup milk
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Spread the shredded chicken evenly across the bottom of the prepared dish. Add the frozen mixed vegetables on top.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, salt, and pepper until smooth. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetables without stirring.
In another bowl, mix the biscuit baking mix with milk until just combined. Carefully pour the batter over the filling, again without stirring, to allow the layers to bake separately.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the biscuit batter.
Bake uncovered for 45-50 minutes, or until the topping is golden brown and cooked through. Let it rest for a few minutes before serving.
Notes
For extra richness, add a handful of shredded cheddar cheese over the filling before adding the biscuit topping.
Rotisserie chicken works perfectly for this recipe and saves time.
Leftovers can be reheated in the oven to keep the topping crisp.
