Cheddar Bay Chicken Cobbler is a comforting and savory casserole featuring tender shredded chicken, creamy vegetables, and a cheesy biscuit topping inspired by the famous Cheddar Bay biscuits.

Ingredients

Scale

Chicken Filling

  • 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
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley (optional)

Biscuit Topping

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

Instructions

  1. Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.
  2. Make the Chicken Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together milk, sour cream, and cream of chicken soup until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This creamy base will add flavor and moisture to the dish.
  3. Add Seasonings and Veggies: Stir in the garlic powder, black pepper, frozen mixed vegetables, and shredded chicken until everything is evenly distributed in the creamy mixture.
  4. Layer Chicken Mixture: Pour the prepared chicken mixture into the greased baking dish and spread it out evenly with a spatula to create a smooth base for the biscuit topping.
  5. Prepare Biscuit Dough: In a separate bowl, prepare the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix according to the package instructions, usually involving adding specified amounts of milk and butter. Once dough is ready, stir in the shredded cheddar cheese for extra flavor and cheesiness.
  6. Top Chicken Mixture with Biscuits: Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken mixture in the baking dish, covering the top surface for an even biscuit crust once baked.
  7. Add Butter and Parsley: Drizzle melted butter over the biscuit topping to help it brown nicely and add richness. Sprinkle fresh parsley on top, if using, for a burst of color and herbal freshness.
  8. Bake the Cobbler: Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through, and the filling is bubbly around the edges.
  9. Rest Before Serving: Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it sit for 5 minutes before serving. This allows the filling to set slightly for cleaner serving portions.

Notes

  • You can substitute fresh vegetables like peas, carrots, and corn if preferred instead of frozen mixed vegetables.
  • For extra flavor, mix in some cooked bacon or chopped green onions into the chicken filling.
  • If you don’t have Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix, use your favorite biscuit or biscuit dough recipe supplemented with shredded cheddar cheese and garlic powder.
  • Leftovers can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the oven or microwave.
  • Make sure the chicken is fully cooked before shredding and assembling the dish for safe consumption.
