This Cheddar Bay Chicken Cobbler takes the beloved flavors of classic chicken pot pie and gives them a delicious twist with cheesy, fluffy biscuit topping reminiscent of those famous seafood restaurant biscuits. Tender chicken breast is combined with colorful vegetables in a savory, herb-seasoned broth, then crowned with drop biscuits loaded with sharp cheddar cheese. As it bakes, the biscuits turn golden brown while soaking up just enough of the flavorful broth below, creating a dish that’s both comforting and impressive.
If you’re drawn to these cozy comfort flavors, you’ll love our Chicken & Waffle Casserole with its similar hearty, satisfying appeal. For another chicken and biscuit combination, try the Southern Breakfast Enchiladas with Sausage Gravy that brings the same comforting breakfast-meets-dinner vibes.

1.5 pounds chicken breast
2 cups chicken broth
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 cup biscuit mix
1/2 cup butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 cup milk
1 cup green peas
1 cup carrot slices
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a 9×13-inch baking dish by greasing it lightly.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat and cook chicken until golden brown, then remove and set aside.
- Using the same skillet, melt butter and stir in chicken broth, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and bring to a gentle simmer.
- Add in peas and carrots, followed by the cooked chicken, and let it cook together for another 5 minutes.
- In a bowl, combine biscuit mix, cheddar cheese, and milk to form a dough. Avoid overmixing for tender biscuits.
- Pour the chicken mixture into the prepared baking dish, then spoon the biscuit batter evenly over the top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes until biscuits are golden brown and the dish is bubbling.
- Let the cobbler cool for a few minutes before serving to allow it to set slightly and scoop out servings with ease.
