Ingredients

How to Make TikTok Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Cobbler

1. Melt the butter.

Preheat your oven to 350°F. While the oven preheats, place the stick of butter in a 9×13-inch baking dish and let it melt in the oven. Keep an eye on it to ensure it doesn’t burn. Once melted, remove the dish from the oven and swirl the butter around to coat the bottom evenly.

2. Prepare the biscuit mix.

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the milk, Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix, and the seasoning packet that comes with it. Whisk until smooth and set aside.

3. Assemble the dish.

Spread the shredded chicken evenly across the bottom of the buttered baking dish. Scatter the frozen peas and carrots evenly over the chicken. If using shredded cheddar cheese, sprinkle it evenly over the vegetables.

4. Add the biscuit layer.

Pour the prepared biscuit batter evenly over the chicken and vegetable layer. Don’t stir or mix the layers. This ensures the biscuit topping bakes properly.

5. Prepare the sauce.

In another bowl, whisk together the chicken stock and cream of chicken soup until smooth. Gently pour this mixture over the biscuit batter, ensuring an even distribution. Again, do not mix.

6. Bake.

Place the dish in the oven, uncovered, and bake for 45 minutes. Check for doneness, as the biscuit layer should be golden brown and set.

7. Rest and serve.

Once done, remove the casserole from the oven and let it sit for about 15 minutes. This allows the layers to set and makes serving easier. Serve warm and enjoy a hearty, cheesy twist on a chicken pot pie-inspired casserole!

Tips for the Best TikTok Cheddar Bay Biscuit Chicken Cobbler

I’ve made this recipe a few times, and here are some of my best tips.

• Don’t mix the layers! Keep the biscuit mix and liquid layers separate to allow the cobbler to bake properly.
• Keep a watchful eye. Check at 45 minutes and bake longer if the top is pale or wet in spots. Cover loosely with foil if the top browns too quickly.
• Give it a flavor boost. Add shredded cheddar cheese between the vegetable and biscuit layers for extra richness.
• Thicken it up. If you prefer a thicker cobbler, slightly reduce the chicken stock or soup mixture.
• Taste and adjust. Sprinkle garlic powder, paprika, or Italian seasoning over the top before baking for added flavor.
• Go the fresh route. Swap frozen peas and carrots for fresh or other vegetables like green beans or corn for a personalized touch.
• Switch up the mix. Use Bisquick, Jiffy, Krusteaz, or a homemade biscuit mix as a substitute for Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix. Add garlic powder, onion powder, and cheddar for a similar flavor.
• Try tasty variations. Substitute rotisserie chicken with cooked turkey or diced ham, or use a gluten-free biscuit mix for dietary needs.
