Scale
Protein:
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Vegetables and Seasonings:
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, green beans)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Liquid and Dough:
- 1 can (10.5 ounces / 298 grams) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 can (16.3 ounces / 462 grams) refrigerated biscuit dough
- Fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare all ingredients for swift assembly.
- In a large bowl, blend cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until thoroughly combined.
- Transfer the chicken mixture into a greased 9×13 inch baking dish, spreading evenly across the bottom.
- Distribute half of the shredded cheddar cheese over the initial layer, creating a rich foundation.
- Open the biscuit dough and slice each biscuit into quarters, then scatter the pieces uniformly across the chicken mixture.
- Generously sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese over the biscuit pieces, ensuring complete coverage.
- Position the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes until biscuits turn golden brown and the filling bubbles with tempting aromas.
- Remove from oven and allow the cobbler to rest for 5 minutes, enabling the filling to set and cool slightly.
- Garnish with fresh chopped parsley before serving, adding a vibrant touch to this comforting meal.
Notes
- Swap frozen veggies with fresh seasonal produce for enhanced nutrition and vibrant color.
- Cut biscuit pieces smaller for more even coverage and crispier texture throughout the dish.
- Consider using low-fat cream of chicken soup and reduced-fat cheese for a lighter version without compromising flavor.
- Add a sprinkle of smoked paprika or dried herbs like thyme to elevate the overall taste profile and create more depth.
