Ingredients
  

For the Cobbler
  • 4 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • 3 –4 cups rotisserie chicken chopped
  • 12- ounce bag frozen peas and carrots or mixed vegetables
  • 1 10.5-ounce can cream of chicken soup
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 11.36-ounce Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix (seasoning packet reserved)
  • 2 cups milk 2% or higher
  • ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
For the Butter Topping
  • 2 tablespoons salted butter melted
  • Seasoning packet from the biscuit mix

Equipment

  • 9×13-inch baking dish
  • Mixing bowls
  • Whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Pour the melted butter into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish, tilting the dish slightly so the butter spreads evenly.
  2. Spread the chopped rotisserie chicken evenly over the melted butter. Do not stir.
  3. Sprinkle the frozen peas and carrots evenly over the chicken layer. Again, do not stir.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper.
  5. Pour this mixture evenly over the chicken and vegetable layers without stirring.
  6. In another bowl, combine the biscuit mix, milk, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir until well mixed. Do not add the seasoning packet yet.
  7. Pour the biscuit mixture evenly over the layers in the baking dish. Do not stir.
  8. Bake uncovered for 50–60 minutes, until the top becomes golden brown and the filling is bubbly.
  9. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter with the seasoning packet from the biscuit mix.
  10. Remove the cobbler from the oven and brush the butter mixture over the top of the crust.
  11. Let the cobbler rest for 10 minutes before serving so the filling can thicken slightly.

Notes
