My neighbor brought over this incredible dinner last week and it has instantly become my new favorite comfort meal

This Oven Baked 5-Ingredient Chicken Cobbler Pasta combines tender short pasta, shredded chicken, and a rich, creamy sauce, all topped with fluffy, golden-brown biscuit pieces. Baked right in the pan without boiling the noodles beforehand, this effortless dish creates a comforting, cobbler-style meal perfect for busy weeknights.

Oven Baked 5-Ingredient Chicken Cobbler Pasta

Ingredients:

Step-By-Step Directions:

1. Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a 9×13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray or oil.

2. Layer pasta and chicken: Spread the uncooked pasta evenly across the bottom of the pan. Scatter the shredded cooked chicken over the dry pasta, shaking the pan gently to distribute it between the noodles.

3. Mix and add liquid: In a medium bowl, whisk together the condensed cream of chicken soup and chicken broth until smooth. Pour evenly over the pasta and chicken, pressing down with a spoon to ensure the noodles are mostly submerged.

4. Top with biscuits: Cut each refrigerated biscuit into 1/2- to 3/4-inch pieces. Scatter the biscuit chunks evenly across the top in a single layer.

5. Cover and bake: Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil, tenting slightly so it does not touch the biscuits. Bake for 30 minutes.

6. Uncover and finish: Carefully remove the foil and bake uncovered for an additional 20 to 25 minutes, until the biscuits are puffed and golden brown, the pasta is tender, and the sauce is bubbly.

7. Rest and serve: Remove from the oven and let rest for 10 minutes to allow the sauce to thicken before scooping into individual portions.
