This was so tasty and took almost 0 effort! My favorite kind of meal!

When the air turns crisp and the leaves start to show their autumn colors, there's nothing quite like gathering the family around for a warm, comforting meal. Today, I have a heartwarming recipe that combines the coziness of a chicken cobbler with the irresistible cheesy delight of Cheddar Bay Biscuits. This Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Cobbler is a spin on the classic pot pie and biscuit pairing that we all know and love. It's a perfect dish for those evenings when you want to serve up a bit of love on a plate to those who matter most, and it could even become a new family favorite for its ease and scrumptiousness. Plus, it's a terrific way to show off your down-home cooking skills and add a little twist to traditional comfort food.

This cobbler is pretty hearty on its own, but if you're like me and enjoy a little something on the side, you might consider adding a simple green salad tossed with vinaigrette or some steamed green beans with a pat of butter. And for those younger ones who might scrunch their noses at greens, you could pair it with apple slices for a touch of sweetness that's sure to win the room.

Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Cobbler
Servings: 6

- 1 package cheddar biscuit mix (plus the ingredients called for on the package, usually milk and butter)
- 2 cups cooked chicken, shredded or cubed
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of chicken soup
- 1/2 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables (corn, carrots, peas, and green beans)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (optional for extra cheesiness)

1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Take a moment to give your favorite 9x13-inch baking dish a little coat of butter or cooking spray, so everything comes out nice and easy after it's done.

2. In a large bowl, mix together the cooked chicken, cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, frozen mixed vegetables, garlic powder, onion powder, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper according to your family's preference.

3. Spread this hearty mixture evenly in the prepared baking dish. If your family's anything like mine, they'll be peeking in the kitchen, drawn by the comforting smells!

4. Prepare the cheddar biscuit mix according to the package instructions. If you're feeling a little extra love, stir in that cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the mix for an additional cheesy touch—trust me, it's delicious!

5. Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit mix on top of the chicken mixture. Don't worry about perfection here; those dollops will bake up into a golden-brown crown that's as beautiful as it is tasty.

6. Bake uncovered for about 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is puffed and golden, and the chicken mixture is bubbly. Let it sit for a moment when done—this not only helps it set but also allows the family to gather round.

- If there are dietary concerns or preferences in the family, feel free to swap out the cream of chicken soup for a gluten-free or lower-sodium version.
- For a vegetarian twist, replace the chicken and cream of chicken soup with cream of mushroom soup and a hearty blend of mushrooms and other vegetables like zucchini and bell peppers.
- Got leftovers? This dish reheats wonderfully, so pack it up for a second round of cozy for lunch tomorrow!
- And remember, this cobbler is all about bringing joy and warmth to the table, so don't stress the small stuff, and make it your own! The best recipes are those made with love and laughter, after all.

Get ready to wrap your loved ones in culinary comfort with this Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Cobbler. It's got all the makings of an instant classic and is sure to have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy!
