What Makes This Chicken Pot Pie Cobbler Stand Out

This creamy chicken cobbler is like the culinary lovechild of chicken and dumplings and a pot pie casserole.

The thicker, biscuit-like crust takes this comfort food classic to a whole new level!

Instead of the usual self-rising flour for the topping, I’ve swapped it out for Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix.

The result? A flaky, buttery crust that’s to die for.

And let’s not forget about the filling!

We’re talking more chicken, more veggies, and more of that savory, soul-soothing gravy that makes every bite a little piece of heaven.

One of the things I absolutely adore about this creamy chicken cobbler with Red Lobster biscuits is its versatility and convenience.

So, whether it’s a hectic weeknight or a lazy Sunday afternoon, this casserole has your back, ensuring that comfort food is always just a few steps away.

You can easily make it using frozen veggies straight from your freezer and leftover chicken from a previous meal.

You know those inexpensive rotisserie chickens from the grocery store? Perfection!

It’s a fantastic way to reduce food waste and turn those leftovers into something truly delightful.

With a few simple pantry staples and minimal prep, you can have a warm, satisfying meal on the table in no time.

How to Make this Delicious Chicken Cobbler Casserole Recipe

It’s really easy to make this classic meal that the whole family will enjoy!

Ingredients You’ll Need:

• Unsalted Butter
• Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
• Milk
• Cooked chicken
• Frozen Vegetables
• Chicken Broth
• Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup

How to Make It:

(Full printable recipe is available below)

Melt the Butter. First, you’ll add butter to a 9×13″ pan and place in the oven.

Preheat oven to 400F, allowing the butter to melt in the casserole dish while the oven heats.

Prepare the biscuit mix. Next, while the butter melts, you’ll add biscuit mix (including the contents of the seasoning packet that comes in the box) and milk to a small bowl.

Whisk or stir to combine, then set aside.

Build the casserole. Next, once the butter is melted, you’ll remove the baking dish from oven and tilt the dish to allow the butter to coat the bottom.

Add shredded chicken pieces evenly over the melted butter, then sprinkle frozen veggies in an even layer over the chicken.

Add the biscuit mix. Next, you’ll pour the biscuit mixture over the chicken and veggies. Do not stir.

Add the soup mixture. Next, in another small bowl, you’ll whisk together chicken broth and cream of chicken soup until smooth.

Pour this mixture over the biscuit mixture. Again, do not stir.

Bake and serve. Last, you’ll transfer dish to preheated oven and bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the crust on top of the cobbler is golden brown.

Remove from oven and allow to sit for a few minutes before scooping and serving (the liquid will continue to thicken to a gravy consistency as it cools).

This savory cobbler is basically a complete meal on its own.

But if you want to serve something else alongside it, try a simple green salad or one of these side dishes for chicken and dumplings.

Notes and Adaptations:

• You can choose to use 1 cup (a half batch) of thishomemade cream of chicken soupor canned cream of chicken soup. If you use canned, you do not need to add any water to the soup.
• I used Red Lobster biscuit mix for the buttery biscuit topping, but you can try a different variety if preferred. You’ll need abut 2 cups of biscuit mix.
• I don’t add any cheddar cheese to the biscuit mix, but if you’d like to, you can!
• Leftovers should be refrigerated. Store tightly covered with plastic wrap in the baking dish or transfer to an airtight container.
• The choice of vegetable is up to you. I used peas and carrots, but you could also use mixed vegetables.
