Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 cups shredded rotisserie chicken
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
- 1 package cheddar biscuit mix (like Red Lobster’s Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix)
- 1 can (10.5 ounces / 298 grams) condensed cream of chicken soup
Sauce and Liquid Ingredients:
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons melted butter
Seasoning Ingredients:
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt to taste
- Pepper to taste
Instructions
- Prepare the oven at 350°F and generously coat a 13×9-inch baking dish with melted butter to prevent sticking.
- Distribute shredded chicken and frozen vegetables evenly across the buttered dish, creating a uniform base layer.
- Enhance the mixture with thyme, salt, and pepper to develop a robust flavor profile.
- Create a creamy sauce by whisking condensed soup, chicken broth, and heavy cream until smooth and well integrated.
- Pour the sauce over the chicken and vegetable mixture, gently stirring to ensure complete coverage and even distribution.
- Prepare the Cheddar biscuit mix according to package specifications, maintaining the recommended consistency.
- Using a spoon or scoop, delicately place approximately 8 biscuit dough portions across the surface of the casserole, allowing slight spacing between each dollop.
- Transfer the dish to the preheated oven and bake uncovered for 40 minutes, monitoring until biscuits transform into a golden brown hue and edges begin to bubble vigorously.
- Once baked, carefully remove from oven and optionally garnish with an extra sprinkle of fresh thyme for enhanced aromatic appeal.
Notes
- Swap frozen veggies with fresh seasonal produce for a vibrant, nutrient-packed twist that adds extra flavor and color to the dish.
- Use rotisserie chicken or leftover grilled chicken to cut down on preparation time and add a smoky depth to the cobbler.
- Create a gluten-free version by substituting the biscuit mix with a gluten-free alternative and ensuring all other ingredients are gluten-free certified.
- Reduce sodium by using low-sodium chicken broth and condensed soup, which helps control salt intake without compromising the rich, comforting taste of the cobbler.
