Chicken Gravy and Biscuits
My mother in law taught me how to cook one of my husband's favorite comfort foods. I had never eaten anything like this before in my life. Not that it's unusual, but I've lived a very sheltered life.
We are a family of 6, so I make a rather large amount. We 💙 leftovers. This can be halved or done in the crock pot (with the thickening done at the end). It's also a versatile dish because you can use fresh chicken, leftover chicken, serve over rice, mashed potatoes, bread, or noodles. Our favorite, of course, is biscuits.
I hope you and yours enjoy this recipe. I'm open to feedback, good or bad. This is my first EVER recipe post. I hope to use this app to inspire me in my cooking and meal planning endeavors.
Thanks,
Kelly

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Start by preheating the oven to the temperature recommended for the biscuits. Bake biscuits according to package directions in between steps.
- 2
Place shredded chicken in pot. Add water, onion, bullion cubes, and pepper. Bring to a boil on medium high heat.
- 3
Once boiling, add thickening mixture, stirring quickly so the flour mixture doesn't all clump together.
- 4
Return to boiling. Stirring quite often. The chicken gravy should be thickening. You can add more thickening mixture if you like your gravy thicker. *my general rule is flour to water = 1 to 2 ratio.
- 5
Once gravy is thickened to your liking, it's ready to serve. Garnish with more black pepper if you like. I don't add salt because there is plenty in the bullion cubes.

Biscuits and Gravy Biscuits and Gravy
I first fell in love with this hearty brunch meal moving to the Mid West when I was younger. The restaurant I had it in was never replicated in flavor at any other establishment or recipe I came across. I've tried duplicating that recipe many, many times. This still honestly isn't close but it is full of flavor. I use pinch terminology in my ingredients as the spices should just be back notes and not prominent. When you try this, taste the gravy as you go and adjust. I do every single time as the breakfast sausage you use can alter the results.

I grew up obsessed with biscuits and gravy, and it has been far too long since I’ve had a plate. Called up my mom for a refresher on her recipe, and added some extra spices for added flavor! I appreciate the extras, but you can certainly enjoy this with just salt and pepper, too!

This biscuit recipe is taken from an old Betty Crocker cook book, but the sausage gravy portion is all mine. Biscuits are all about technique. Anyone can put the ingredients together, but how you put them together will be the difference between good and great!
