Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cooked, shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works well)
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
  • 1 package refrigerated biscuit dough (like Red Lobster Biscuit Mix or standard buttermilk biscuits)
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9×9 inch baking dish or similar casserole dish.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, sour cream, dried thyme, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until everything is well combined and creamy.
  3. Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables into the chicken mixture.
  4. Spread the chicken mixture evenly into the prepared baking dish.
  5. Open the refrigerated biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit into quarters. Arrange these biscuit pieces over the top of the chicken filling, leaving small gaps between them so they can expand.
  6. Brush the tops of the biscuits lightly with the melted butter.
  7. Bake for 20 minutes.
  8. Remove the dish from the oven. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the biscuits.
  9. Return to the oven and bake for another 5 to 10 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is bubbling hot.
  10. Let the chicken cobbler rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • For a true Cheddar Bay flavor, use a biscuit mix that includes cheese seasoning, or add 1/4 cup extra sharp cheddar cheese directly into your biscuit dough before topping the casserole.
  • If you do not have sour cream, you can substitute it with plain Greek yogurt for a similar tang and creaminess.
  • This dish reheats well. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
