Creamed Chicken ‘n’ Biscuits
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 25 min.
YIELD: 6 servings.
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
