Ingredients

Chicken Mixture

  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
  • ½ cup sour cream
  • 1 can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • ½ tsp black pepper

Biscuit Topping

  • 1 packet Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix (plus ingredients listed on packet)
  • 1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tbsp butter, melted
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prepare: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Mix the Filling: In a large bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, and cream of chicken soup until smooth. Stir in the garlic powder, black pepper, frozen mixed vegetables, and shredded chicken, mixing until well combined.
  3. Assemble the Base: Pour the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish and spread it out for an even layer.
  4. Prepare Biscuit Dough: In a separate bowl, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese to the biscuit dough for added flavor.
  5. Top with Biscuit Dough: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken mixture covering the surface.
  6. Butter and Garnish: Drizzle the melted butter over the biscuit topping, then sprinkle fresh parsley on top if using.
  7. Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through.
  8. Rest and Serve: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes to settle before serving. This will make slicing easier and enhance the flavors.

Notes

  • You can substitute frozen mixed vegetables with fresh vegetables if preferred; just adjust cooking times accordingly.
  • Make sure to shred the chicken finely for even distribution in the cobbler.
  • For a spicier version, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the filling mixture.
  • Use full-fat sour cream for a richer, creamier texture.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven for best results.
