Ingredients
  • Meat from one rotisserie chicken, shredded (OR 2 large chicken breasts, cooked and chopped / shredded)
  • 1 T olive oil
  • 1 medium onion, diced
  • 1 cup of your favorite chopped vegetables (I use ½ cup sliced carrots and ½ cup sliced asparagus)
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 2 cups 1% milk
  • ½ cup fat free half and half
  • ½ to 1 Tablespoon Better than Bouillon Chicken Flavor (to desired salt level)
  • 3 Tablespoons cornstarch mixed in 3 Tablespoons cold water, mixed well
  • 1 package of Pillsbury Grands Jr. Biscuits (10 biscuits; 12 ounces)
  • Garnish with dried parsley (optional)
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 375F.
  2. Remove meat from rotisserie chicken, shred with two forks and set aside
  3. Saute diced onion in olive oil on medium-high in a dutch oven or large oven-safe soup pot until transparent
  4. Add vegetables and chicken to the pot
  5. Add broth, milk, half and half and ½ Tablespoon of the chicken bouillon and mix well
  6. In a separate container, mix the cornstarch and water together into a slurry
  7. Mix or whisk well to remove clumps, then add to the pot while stirring continuously
  8. Bring to a slight boil / bubble for a few minutes to thicken into a gravy consistency
  9. Remove from heat, then layer the biscuits (in one layer) over the gravy
  10. Place the pan in oven and cook for 16 to 18 minutes, until tops of biscuits are golden brown
  11. This recipe is great to make ahead of time if you want to prepare it for someone who could use a homemade meal. Just prep the chicken gravy, let it cool and put it in a Tupperware container. Deliver it with a container of biscuits and the instructions for how to cook the recipe.
