Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups cooked and shredded chicken (rotisserie chicken works perfectly)
  • 1 can (10.5 ounces) cream of chicken soup
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables (like a pea, carrot, corn, and green bean blend)
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter, cut into small cubes
  • 3/4 cup milk

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking dish
  • Large bowl
  • medium bowl
  • Whisk
  • Pastry blender

Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F. Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish and set it aside.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, milk, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper until smooth. Gently stir in the shredded chicken and frozen vegetables until everything is evenly coated.
  3. Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it into an even layer.
  4. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually stir in the milk until a soft dough forms. Do not overmix.
  5. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough evenly over the chicken filling.
  6. Bake uncovered for 35-45 minutes, or until the filling is bubbly and the biscuit topping is a deep golden brown.
  7. Remove the cobbler from the oven and let it rest for about 10 minutes. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly before serving. Enjoy warm!

Notes

For the best results, use very cold butter for a tender, fluffy biscuit topping. Using a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken is a great time-saver and adds extra flavor. To prevent a soggy bottom, ensure the oven is fully preheated and leave some space between the biscuit dough spoonfuls to allow steam to escape. Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes after baking to allow the sauce to thicken.
