​Ingredients And Substitutions

Butter: I always use unsalted butter in recipes. You can use salted butter if you prefer.

Shredded Chicken: This recipe calls for 4 cups of chicken. A whole rotisserie chicken saves a lot of time cooking and is about 4 cups or any leftover chicken is great to use!

Frozen Vegetables: You can use a variety of frozen vegetables for this viral chicken cobbler recipe like green beans, a bag of peas or a medley of broccoli, carrots, and cauliflower.

Seasonings: I love onion powder, garlic powder, and thyme in this dish but use your favorite seasoning!

Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix: I mean, talk about delicious! You could use another type of biscuit mix but, I wouldn’t!

Whole Milk: Low fat milk can be substituted.

Chicken Broth: Chicken stock can be used.

Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup: Other varieties of condensed soup can be substituted. Cream of mushroom soup and cheddar cheese soup are very popular. I prefer the taste of the creamy chicken soup in this savory cobbler.

Shredded Cheese: Serve on the side for those who love cheesy biscuits!

Recipe Tips

  • If you feel like the cobbler might bubble over the top of the dish during the baking process, place a baking sheet on the bottom oven rack to catch any sauce that might drip. It hasn’t happened to me yet but every dish and oven can be different.
  • NO mixing of ingredients in the baking dish. It’s all about layering.
