Ingredients
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded
- 1 cup mixed seasonal vegetables (carrots, peas, corn)
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup biscuit mix
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
Ensure all ingredients are ready before starting the cooking process.
Instructions
Directions
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare the Mixture
In a large bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Transfer to Baking Dish
Pour the chicken mixture into a greased 9x13 inch baking dish.
Make the Biscuit Topping
In a separate bowl, mix the biscuit mix and milk until just combined. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mixture on top of the chicken mixture.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown.
Let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
Cooking Tips
To ensure your biscuit topping comes out perfectly fluffy, avoid over-mixing the biscuit mix with milk. Just stir until combined; a few lumps are okay. Additionally, for an extra flavor kick, consider adding herbs like thyme or rosemary to the biscuit mixture. These aromatic herbs can elevate the whole dish, giving it a more robust flavor.
If you're making this dish in advance, you can prepare the chicken and vegetable mixture ahead of time. Simply cover it and store it in the fridge until you’re ready to bake. Add the biscuit topping just before baking for optimal texture.
Storage and Reheating
Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. This makes it an excellent option for meal prepping or batch cooking. When reheating, use the oven to maintain the biscuit topping's crispness; simply cover with foil and bake at 350°F until heated through.
For longer storage, you can freeze the cooked chicken cobbler. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap, followed by aluminum foil, and place it in the freezer. It should keep well for approximately 2-3 months. When you're ready to enjoy it again, thaw overnight in the refrigerator and reheat in the oven.
