Creamed chicken ’n’ biscuits is a entree in minutes. To save even more time, I sometimes serve the hot chicken mixture on buns. From Shari Zimmerman of Deford Michigan.
Ingredients
BISCUITS:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup vegetable oil
CREAMED CHICKEN:
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk or chicken broth
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
Minced fresh parsley
Method
In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt; add milk and oil.
Stir until the dough forms a ball. Knead in the bowl 10 times or until smooth.
Roll or pat dough into a 6-in. square about 1 in. thick.
Cut into six rectangles. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at 450° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a skillet, saute onion in butter until tender.
Stir in flour, salt and pepper until smooth. Gradually add milk; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened.
Stir in chicken and parsley; heat through. Split biscuits; top with the creamed chicken. Yield: 6 servings.
