CHEF JOHN'S REVISED CHICKEN & BISCUITS RECIPE - (4.3/5)

Steps:

• DIRECTIONS: 1. Place chicken in large (9-quart) stock pot, pour in water, and drop in veggies & seasonings. Bring to simmer over medium-low heat. As foam rises to the top of the broth, skim and discard with a ladle. Add peeled garlic cloves, cover pot, and simmer on low for 1 hour or until chicken is done. 2. Remove chicken from pot, and allow to cool for a few minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove all meat from the bones, and set the chicken meat aside. Pour stock into a bowl and set aside. 3. In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt butter, and cook and stir carrots, celery, onion, and mushrooms until the vegetables start to become tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, cayenne pepper, black pepper, thyme, rosemary and paprika. Mix in flour, stirring to coat vegetables with flour, about 3 minutes. Add half of reserved stock (1 quart) and stir with the vegetables and flour to form a very thick sauce. Stir in remaining stock until sauce is smooth; reduce heat to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 45 minutes. 4. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). 5. Stir milk into the sauce, and gently mix in the reserved chicken meat, Bring stew back to a simmer, and cook for 10 more minutes. Add frozen peas. Pop open the can of biscuits, separate, and place biscuits on top of stew. 6. Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the stew is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Be sure to place on rack just below center and watch carefully. Place lid on the pot or Dutch oven, and return to oven; bake until biscuits are cooked through, about 15 more minutes. Test biscuits for doneness by pulling apart a biscuit near the middle of the stew to see if it's cooked through. Private Recipe from Karen Brown Printed from Allrecipes.com 2/10/2013

BARBECUE CHICKEN CHEDDAR BISCUITS

Steps:

• Make the barbecue spice blend: In a medium bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, salt, chili powder, garlic powder, onion powder and cayenne, if using. (Store in an air-tight container or keep in the freezer in a resealable plastic bag.)
• Heat oven to 450 degrees, and prepare the chicken filling: Add the chicken to a small bowl with 2 teaspoons barbecue spice blend and 1 tablespoon water. (If using fried chicken or barbecue sauce, no need to add water.) Mix with a fork and set aside.
• Prepare the biscuits: Place the flour in a large bowl. Using a box grater, grate the frozen stick of butter into the bowl and cut it into the flour with a pastry cutter or fork until the consistency of coarse meal. Add the Cheddar and gently toss to combine.
• Add 3/4 cup of the buttermilk and stir just until combined. If the batter is very dry, add a little more buttermilk, a teaspoon at a time, until the consistency of a very thick batter. Do not overmix. The batter will be quite lumpy and sticky.
• Scoop a large (1/4 cup/2 ounce) mound into your lightly floured hand and make a small well. Add 1 tablespoon of the chicken mixture to the biscuit and pinch the dough around to enclose it, being careful not to overwork the dough and melt the butter. Add the biscuit, pinched side down, to a rimmed nonstick baking sheet (or a parchment lined baking sheet or 12-inch cast iron pan). Repeat with the remaining dough and chicken. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes until golden brown.
