I love biscuits and being from the South, I could quit happily have eaten these with some cream gravy and nothing else. But, being a good Mom and wife I thought I should put together something a little more substantial for dinner :)
I remembered a Barefoot Contessa recipe for a Chicken Stew with Biscuits in her Family Style cookbook. Substituted Dories onion biscuits for Ina's... complete meal!
One of my favorite dishes my Grandma made was chicken & dumplings, husband doesn't like dumplings so I never make it. I've found my solution, chicken & biscuits! Since I baked mine in my chicken stew I'll have to rely on all the other Dorie bloggers to see what the texture was like baked on a sheet pan. In the stew, they were perfect, soft, full of flavor and totally reminded me of good old-fashioned chicken & dumplings.
Happy Friday!
Oh yum! Your dinner looks simply delicious! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteThank you, I'm looking forward to my leftovers :) Have a great weekend too!
DeleteThat looks like a delicous meal! Definitely keeping this in my thoughts next time sous chef wants a chicken pot pie.
ReplyDeleteI use to make a Rachel Ray chicken pot pie with tin biscuits for a quick meal. Definitely, go with BCs chicken stew from now on, it was delicious!
DeleteOh, chicken and dumplings is one of my favorite meals ever. Although, I would never turn my nose up at chicken & biscuits!
ReplyDeleteWell done.
Mine too! It's one of those meals that takes me back in time :)
DeleteHow delicious to put these on top of a chicken pot pie mix!
ReplyDeleteYour stew looks delicious. What a wonderful idea to add them to a stew. I have never seen that and I love Ina Garten.
ReplyDeleteMy great-grandma was a chicken and dumpling maker...so delicious and one of my favorite memory meals. Your chicken stew is beautiful and a great use for these biscuits. Very nice idea.
ReplyDeleteMmmmmm...sounds perfect for this cold Northwest day!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great way to use the biscuits. I'm sure the onion-y flavor went really well with the stew. I'm going to lave to try this.
ReplyDeleteI bet the recipe was a total hit with your husband. I like the idea of chicken and biscuits!
