Chicken Cobbler- a creamy chicken pot pie filling with peas, carrots and celery is topped with cheesy, golden biscuits. Pure southern comfort food!

 
Cooler weather is just around the corner and I say bring on the comfort food! Hearty, warm casseroles are one of my favorite dinners. This Chicken Cobbler from Paula Deen is one of my absolute favorite chicken casseroles to make. It’s basically a chicken pot pie with a thick layer of soft, pillowy, and cheesy biscuits on top.
 
Chicken Cobbler takes a fair amount of preparation, but it makes plenty to feed a family of 4 for 2 nights and its a meal the whole family will enjoy.

Chicken Cobbler Recipe Tips:
I usually poach the chicken and remove the meat from the bones a day ahead of time. I shred it into bite-sized pieces and store it in a ziptop bag for easy cleanup. Remember to save 4 cups of the cooking liquid. You will use it to make the filling.  
To shorten the prep time, you could definitely use a rotisserie chicken and canned chicken broth.
If you don’t have fresh thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme can be used instead.
Have leftover turkey" You can use it instead of chicken in this recipe.
Leftovers will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 4 days.
