Skillet Chicken and Biscuits

<strong>Skillet Chicken and Biscuits</strong>

This is an easy weeknight comforting family dinner.  The chicken and carrots under a layer of biscuits taste delicious and will be enjoyed by kids and adults alike. I served this with broiled asparagus topped with cheddar for me and macaroni and cheese for the kids.

Ingredients:

1 large chicken breast diced

1 tablespoon Montreal chicken seasoning (or other seasoning)

4 large carrots sliced

1 medium onion sliced

2 stalks celery diced

2 tablespoons fresh parsley

2 teaspoons paprika

¼ cup stone ground cornmeal

¼ cup flour

16 ounces chicken stock

One 16.3 ounce tube refrigerated biscuit dough

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

  1. Heat a nonstick pan over medium heat and spray with olive oil spray.
  2. Add chicken, carrots, onions, and celery and cook stirring often until the chicken is cooked through.
  3. Meanwhile cut biscuits into fourths. 
  4. Mix cornmeal and paprika in a large bowl.
  5. Toss biscuits in the cornmeal mixture.
  6. Once the chicken is cooked add the chicken broth and flour and mix in.
  7. Top with biscuit pieces.  Cook with lid covering for 25 minutes.
  8. Allow to rest for a few minutes before serving.
  9. Enjoy!
