- Cooked Chicken (shredded from a rotisserie chicken or boiled/baked boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs)
- 12–16 ounce bag of frozen mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn, green beans)
- 1 can of cream of chicken soup (or cream of mushroom or cream of celery soup)
- Low-sodium chicken broth
- Whole milk (or any milk, dairy or non-dairy like almond or oat milk)
- 1 small onion (finely minced)
- 1–2 cloves of garlic (finely minced)
- Salt
- Black pepper
- Dried thyme or poultry seasoning
- Refrigerated biscuit dough (a can of flaky or homestyle biscuits)
- Butter (optional, for sautéing aromatics)
- Flour (optional, for making a roux)
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and spray a 9×13 inch baking dish with cooking spray.
- If using fresh onion and garlic, melt a tablespoon of butter or drizzle olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the minced onion and cook for 3-5 minutes until softened. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- Pour in the can of cream of chicken soup, chicken broth, and milk into the pot. Whisk together until smooth and bring to a gentle simmer, cooking for about 2-3 minutes until it thickens slightly.
- Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cooked chicken, frozen mixed vegetables, dried thyme or poultry seasoning, salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat everything evenly in the creamy sauce.
- Pour the chicken and vegetable filling mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
- Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit into quarters or halves if desired, and arrange the pieces over the top of the chicken filling, leaving some gaps.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly. Tent with foil if the biscuits brown too quickly.
- Let the chicken cobbler rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
