Steps:
- Make the filling: Place chicken in a large pot; add enough water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; immediately reduce to a simmer. Season with 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper; cook, skimming surface, until chicken is tender, 30 to 40 minutes.
- Remove chicken from pot and let cool. Strain broth, set aside 2 1/2 cups; reserve remaining broth for another use. Shred chicken, discarding skin and bones; set aside.
- In a very large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until translucent. Add carrots and parsnip; cook, stirring, until softened. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring, until softened. Add brandy and stir to deglaze.
- Add flour and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add reserved chicken broth; stir to combine. Add milk, bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes. Add onions, peas, thyme, parsley, nutmeg, and reserved chicken; stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper. Divide mixture evenly between six 8- to 10-ounce ramekins; set aside.
- Make the chive-biscuit topping: Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Line a baking sheet with a nonstick baking mat; set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Add cheese and chives; stir to combine. Add heavy cream; stir until well combined.
- Turn dough out onto a lightly floured work surface. Shape into a 1/2-inch-thick circle. Using a 3 3/4-inch biscuit cutter, cut out 6 rounds. Top each filled ramekin with a round. Lightly brush with heavy cream.
- Transfer ramekins to prepared baking sheet. Bake until chicken mixture is bubbly and biscuits are golden, about 30 minutes. Serve immediately.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 400 degrees. Put oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When oil is hot, add the leek, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until liquid has released and evaporated, about 8 to 10 minutes.
- Add stock and rosemary; bring to a boil, and let bubble for a minute or two, then add carrots and chicken and reduce heat so the liquid simmers. Cook until carrots are almost tender and chicken is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Add peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are brightly colored and just tender, another minute or so; fish out rosemary stem and discard.
- Whisk cornstarch with a few tablespoons of broth to make a slurry. Add slurry to pot and stir until liquid thickens slightly. Transfer everything to an ovenproof dish and set aside.
- Put flour in a food processor with baking powder, soda and salt. Add butter and process until mixture resembles small peas, no more than 30 seconds. (You can also do this by hand, using two knives, a fork, your fingers, or a pastry cutter). Transfer mixture to a bowl and mix in buttermilk and egg until it just comes together; it should be sticky.
- Drop spoonfuls of batter on top of vegetables and chicken and smooth with a knife, covering as much surface area as possible but leaving a few gaps for steam to escape. Bake for 35 to 45 minutes until golden on top and bubbly underneath. Scoop into bowls and serve immediately.

CHICKEN COBBLER
I got this recipe from my church cookbook. I made it a lot for my boys when they were very young. They loved it. *Added note: I think the kind of rice you use affects this recipe quite a bit. A sticky rice will absorb a lot of liquid, while a converted rice will not. I'm not sure, but I think you could adjust the liquid accordingly. I always use a more sticky rice.

CHICKEN COBBLER
Inspired by a recipe from Mark Bittman's "Minimalist" column in the New York Times, which will appear in the Wed Mar 10 paper (but is on the website today http://nyti.ms/9ZFEID ) A simple chicken stew, heavier on the vegetables than most chicken pot pies, is thickened with cornstarch and topped with biscuit dough.

Steps:
- Heat oil in a large saucepan or small Dutch oven until shimmering. Add leek, season with salt and pepper, and saute until limp, 4-5 minutes. Add garlic and saute until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add mushrooms and cook until soft and most of their water has been expelled and evaporated, 8-10 minutes.
- Add stock, rosemary and bay leaf; bring to a boil. Add carrots and chicken, then lower heat to a simmer. Cook until chicken is cooked through and carrots are nearly tender, 8-10 minutes. Add peas and cook 1-2 minutes. Remove and discard rosemary and bay leaf.
- Stir cornstarch into cold water until smooth, then drizzle into stew and stir until thickened. (If, as I do, you prefer the more traditional taste and thickness of a veloute, leave out the cornstarch and water. Instead, melt the optional butter in a small saucepan, add the flour and stir until the pasty flavor cooks out, 2-3 minutes. Ladle most of the stock into the roux, whisking constantly, until roux is dissolved and sauce is thick; scrape the sauce back into the stew and stir well.) Transfer the stew to an oven-safe baking dish.
- In a food processor, combine flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Pulse to combine. Add butter and pulse until it resembles small peas. Add egg and buttermilk and pulse until just combined; it will be sticky, so do not overprocess. Spread the dough over the top of the stew as evenly as possible; do not spread all the way to the edge of the dish (leave a gap for steam to escape). Bake in a preheated 400°F oven for 35-45 minutes until biscuit is golden brown.

CHICKEN SOURDOUGH COBBLER
This recipe has tremendous flavor and the sourdough bread on the top makes this dish a home run. Like most casseroles, it is simple to make and is easy to clean up. I have pretty much changed the entire recipe from its original form because the original recipe was very bland and not memorable at all. I hope that you enjoy this cobbler as much as we do!

Tips:
- Use a variety of vegetables: Don't limit yourself to just one or two vegetables. The more variety you have, the more flavorful your cobbler will be. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and peas.
- Season your vegetables well: Don't be afraid to use plenty of herbs and spices to flavor your vegetables. This will help to bring out their natural flavors and make your cobbler even more delicious.
- Use a good quality chicken: The type of chicken you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your cobbler. Look for a chicken that is free-range and organic, if possible. This will ensure that you are getting a chicken that has been raised in a healthy environment and that has not been given any antibiotics or hormones.
- Cook your chicken properly: Make sure that your chicken is cooked all the way through before adding it to your cobbler. This will help to prevent any foodborne illness.
- Use a good quality biscuit mix: The biscuit mix you use will also make a big difference in the flavor of your cobbler. Look for a mix that is made with high-quality ingredients and that does not contain any artificial flavors or preservatives.
- Bake your cobbler until it is golden brown: This will ensure that your cobbler is cooked all the way through and that the biscuits are light and fluffy.
Conclusion:
Chicken cobbler is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a cobbler that is packed with flavor and that everyone will love. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy meal, give chicken cobbler a try.
