Vegetables and Liquid Base:
- 1 1/2 cups mixed vegetables (frozen or fresh)
- 1 can cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup water
- 1 1/2 cups milk
Topping and Seasoning:
- 1 packet Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup cheddar cheese, shredded (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Warm the oven to a precise 400F (200C) for optimal cooking temperature.
- Combine shredded cooked chicken with mixed vegetables, cream of chicken soup, and a splash of milk, seasoning generously with salt and pepper to enhance flavor profile.
- Transfer the savory chicken mixture into a well-greased baking dish, spreading evenly to create a consistent base layer.
- Prepare the Red Lobster biscuit mix according to package instructions, incorporating milk, water, and melted butter into the dry mix. Optional: sprinkle in shredded cheese for extra richness.
- Carefully dollop the prepared biscuit dough across the chicken mixture, ensuring complete coverage with gentle, strategic spoonfuls.
- Place the assembled dish into the preheated oven, baking for 25-30 minutes until the biscuit topping transforms into a golden-brown crust and the underlying filling begins to bubble and steam.
- Allow the cobbler to rest for 5-10 minutes after removing from the oven, enabling the filling to set and flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
- Customize the vegetable mix by adding seasonal or leftover vegetables for extra nutrition and flavor variation.
- Consider using low-sodium cream of chicken soup to control salt intake and create a healthier version of the dish.
- Swap chicken with rotisserie or leftover roasted chicken to save time and add deeper flavor complexity.
- Add herbs like thyme or rosemary to the biscuit topping for an aromatic and gourmet twist on this comfort food classic.
