Description

This Easy Chicken Cobbler Dinner Casserole is a comforting, one-dish meal featuring shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, and a creamy sauce topped with a golden cheddar bay biscuit crust. Perfect for a hassle-free family dinner, this casserole combines tender chicken and savory flavors with a fluffy biscuit topping baked to perfection.

Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • ½ cup butter (1 stick, melted)
  • 4 cups shredded chicken (rotisserie recommended)
  • 1 (12 oz) bag frozen mixed vegetables
  • 1 (11.36 oz) box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (including seasoning packet)
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1 (14.5 oz) can chicken broth (about 2 cups)
  • 1 (10.5 oz) can cream of chicken soup
  • Seasoning to taste (garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper)

Instructions

  1. Preheat and Prep Dish: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease the sides and bottom of a large 9×13-inch baking dish to prevent sticking.
  2. Add Butter: Melt the butter completely and pour it evenly into the prepared baking dish, coating the bottom thoroughly.
  3. Layer Chicken: Spread the shredded chicken in an even single layer over the melted butter to form the base of the casserole.
  4. Add Vegetables and Season: Evenly distribute the frozen mixed vegetables over the chicken layer. Sprinkle your choice of seasonings such as garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Use salt sparingly because other ingredients already contain salt.
  5. Prepare Biscuit Batter: In a medium bowl, whisk together the Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, its seasoning packet, and whole milk until just combined. Pour this batter carefully over the chicken and vegetable layers without stirring to maintain distinct layers.
  6. Mix Soup and Broth: Using the same bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour this creamy mixture evenly over the layered ingredients in the baking dish, again without stirring.
  7. Bake: Place the casserole uncovered on the center rack of the preheated oven. Bake for 55-65 minutes or until the top is a deep golden brown. Check at 55 minutes to prevent overbaking, as oven temperatures may vary.
  8. Rest and Serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and allow it to rest for about 10 minutes. This resting time allows the sauce to thicken for easier serving. Serve warm and enjoy your delicious chicken cobbler dinner casserole.

Notes

  • Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds flavor.
  • Frozen mixed vegetables can be substituted with fresh vegetables, but adjust cooking time accordingly.
  • Do not stir after layering to maintain the biscuit topping’s texture.
  • Check casserole at 55 minutes to avoid overbaking as oven heat varies.
  • Letting the casserole rest is crucial for thickening the sauce and easier serving.
