Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cooked and shredded chicken
- 1 can (10.5 oz / 298 g) cream of chicken soup
- 1 cup (240 ml) chicken broth
- 1 cup (240 ml) shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup (120 g) biscuit mix
- 1 cup (240 ml) milk
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 cup (113 g) unsalted butter, melted
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F, creating the ideal temperature for a golden, bubbling casserole.
- Create a uniform base layer of tender shredded chicken across the entire baking dish.
- Craft a savory liquid foundation by blending cream of chicken soup with rich chicken broth, thoroughly coating the chicken layer.
- Generously distribute shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring complete coverage for maximum flavor intensity.
- Prepare a smooth batter by whisking together biscuit mix with milk, infusing depth through garlic and onion powders, and seasoning with salt and pepper.
- Carefully cascade the prepared batter over the cheese, allowing it to naturally settle and create a rustic texture.
- Enhance the dish by drizzling melted butter across the surface, promising a crisp, golden exterior.
- Slide the dish into the preheated oven, baking for 40-45 minutes until the top transforms into a beautiful golden-brown crust and the interior sets completely.
- Allow the cobbler to rest briefly after removing from the oven, letting flavors meld and stabilize before serving.
Notes
- Choose boneless, skinless chicken breasts for the most tender and consistent texture throughout the dish.
- For a lighter version, swap full-fat ingredients with low-fat alternatives like reduced-sodium cream of chicken soup and part-skim cheddar cheese.
- Add fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary to the batter for an elevated flavor profile that complements the chicken’s richness.
- Create a gluten-free adaptation by using gluten-free biscuit mix and ensuring all other ingredients are certified gluten-free.
