The Full Chicken Cobbler Recipe

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, melted
• 4 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
• 1 12-ounce bag frozen mixed vegetables
• 1 11.36-ounce package Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
• 2 cups whole milk
• 1 10.5-ounce can cream of chicken soup
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 1/8 tsp black pepper
• 2 tsp Better Than Bouillon Roasted Chicken Base
• 2 tbsp fresh chopped parsley (optional)

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Melt the butter in the microwave and pour it into a 9×13 baking dish, spreading it evenly. This will create a delicious buttery base for your cobbler.
3. Layer the shredded chicken over the butter in a single layer. Next, add the frozen vegetables evenly on top of the chicken. Do not mix; you want layers for texture and flavor.
4. In a medium bowl, mix the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, seasoning packet from the mix, and milk until well combined. Pour this mixture over the chicken and vegetables, spreading it carefully and evenly. Remember, do not stir; let the layers remain separate.
5. In another bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, black pepper, and Better Than Bouillon until smooth. Ensure the Better Than Bouillon is fully dissolved. Pour this mixture over the biscuit layer. Again, do not stir; let it settle on top.
6. Bake the dish uncovered for 55-65 minutes (opt for the full 65 minutes) until it turns very golden brown. It may look runny in the middle, but once done, remove it from the oven and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes. The sauce will thicken as it stands, making it perfect for serving.
7. Optionally, garnish with fresh parsley before serving to add a pop of color and freshness.

Serving Suggestions and Variations for Chicken Cobbler

This Chicken Cobbler is delightful on its own, but you can enhance the experience with a fresh side salad or some steamed green beans. If you’re looking to add more flavor, consider incorporating cooked bacon bits or sautéed mushrooms into the mixture. You can also use different vegetables like corn or peas for added color and nutrition. Feel free to get creative!
