Chicken and Biscuits with Gravy

For some reason I was craving this yesterday, so I had to try to make it today.  I've never made chicken and biscuits before, so I just winged it, and it turned out pretty yummy.  Is it bad that I slathered so much chicken and gravy on that it completely covered the biscuit in my photo?  Nah.  It was so good.

Chicken and Biscuits with Gravy















Ingredients:
  • olive oil
  • 1 package (8 oz.) crimini mushrooms, sliced
  • Tastefully Simple Seasoned Salt
  • 1 pound chicken breasts, thinly sliced into bite-size pieces
  • Tastefully Simple Garlic Garlic
  • large pinch of thyme
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 cup nonfat milk
  • a couple heaping tablespoons of whole wheat flour
  • 100% whole wheat biscuits
Directions
  • Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet and saute the mushrooms with some TSSS.  When they soften, add the chicken breast pieces, TSGG and thyme.  Saute until the chicken is no longer pink, then add the chicken broth.
  • In a small cup or bowl, whisk together the milk and whole wheat flour until smooth.  Add to the chicken skillet and bring to a boil, stirring often.  Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 10 minutes.  The gravy will thicken.  If you want it thicker, whisk a little more flour into a little more milk and add to the skillet.
  • Serve hot over some 100% whole wheat biscuits.
