Southern Chicken Cobbler – Like Thanksgiving in a Dish!


Set your oven to 375°F (190°C).

  • Layer the Chicken and Butter:
    Spread the cooked, shredded chicken evenly in a 9×13-inch baking dish.
    Pour the melted butter over the top of the chicken.
    (Don’t stir — the layering is what makes this cobbler magical!)

  • Add the Flour and Milk Mixture:
    In a mixing bowl, whisk together milk and self-rising flour until smooth.
    Pour this mixture over the butter and chicken — again, do not stir.

  • Mix the Soup and Broth:
    In the same bowl (to save dishes!), whisk together cream of chicken soup and chicken broth.
    Pour this over the flour mixture — and trust the process! Do not mix or stir.

  • Bake:
    Bake uncovered for 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown and the cobbler is bubbly.

  • Rest and Serve:
    Let it sit for 5 minutes before serving.
    Enjoy this creamy, buttery comfort with fried green beans and sweet potatoes for the ultimate Southern-style dinner.
