Creamed Chicken 'n' Biscuits

We have a dairy farm and three young children, so I'm always on the lookout for easy, hearty meals like this one. Using leftover or canned chicken, I can whip up this entree in minutes. To save even more time, I sometimes serve the hot chicken mixture on buns.—Shari Zimmerman Deford, Michigan

Ingredients

BISCUITS:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
2/3 cup milk
1/3 cup canola oil
CREAMED CHICKEN:
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 cups milk or chicken broth
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
Minced fresh parsley

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt; add milk
and oil. Stir until the dough forms a ball. On a lightly floured
surface, knead 8-10 times or until smooth.
Roll or pat dough into a 6-in. square about 1 in. thick. Cut into six
rectangles. Place on a lightly greased baking sheet. Bake at
450° for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown.
Meanwhile, in a large skillet, saute onion in butter until tender.
