Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 4 Cups cooked chicken, shredded (rotisserie chicken recommended)
- 1 bag (12 oz) frozen peas and carrots (no need to thaw)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Biscuit Topping
- 1 Box (11.36 oz) Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix (include seasoning packet)
- 2 Cups whole milk
- 1/2 Cup (1 stick) salted butter, melted
Sauce
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 2 Cups chicken broth
Instructions
- Preheat and prepare pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan, making sure it evenly coats the base to add richness and prevent sticking.
- Assemble chicken and veggies: Spread the shredded cooked chicken evenly over the butter layer. Sprinkle the frozen peas and carrots on top of the chicken. Then dust the entire mixture with garlic powder and onion powder for flavor.
- Prepare biscuit batter: In a mixing bowl, combine the Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix along with the included seasoning packet. Whisk in the whole milk until the batter is smooth. Pour this biscuit mixture carefully over the chicken and vegetable layer without stirring. Let it rest on top.
- Make and add sauce: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth and combined. Pour this sauce evenly over the biscuit layer. Do not stir; the mixture will look runny but will bake to a perfect consistency.
- Bake to finish: Place the baking pan uncovered in the preheated oven. Bake for 45 to 60 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the casserole is bubbly around the edges. Remove from oven and allow to rest for about 15 minutes before serving, enabling the cobbler to set and firm up.
Notes
- Using rotisserie chicken saves time and adds flavor.
- Do not thaw frozen peas and carrots before adding; they cook perfectly during baking.
- Ensure the butter fully coats the pan bottom for a rich crust.
- Do not stir after adding biscuit batter and sauce layers; this creates the cobbler texture.
- Allow resting time after baking for easier slicing and serving.
