Categories     Dinner

Time 57m

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 cups chicken broth
1 cup half-and-half
⅓ cup butter
1 cup chopped onion
1 cup peeled and chopped carrots
1 cup chopped celery
½ cup flour
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
4 cups cooked, diced or shredded chicken
½ cup frozen peas (not thawed)
2 cups Bisquick
⅔-¾ cup cold buttermilk (or sub with regular milk)
½ cup grated cheddar cheese
¼ teaspoon dried parsley
2 tablespoons butter, melted
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 2 ½ - 3-quart casserole dish with cooking spray and set aside.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together chicken broth and half-and-half. Set aside.
  • Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion, carrot and celery; sauté for 10 minutes. Add flour and continue cooking and stirring for 1 more minute. Reduce heat to medium and gradually stir in the chicken broth mixture.
  • Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring regularly, until thick and bubbly (about 5-6 minutes). Make sure that the mixture doesn't boil. Stir in the salt and pepper. Add chicken and frozen peas.
  • Transfer the mixture to the prepared baking dish. Cover with foil and bake for about 10 minutes while you prepare the biscuit dough.
  • Use a fork to stir together the Bisquick mix, buttermilk, cheese and parsley until a soft dough forms.
  • Remove the chicken mixture from the oven, take off the cover, and give the filling a stir. Use a large scoop to drop about ¼-cup of the biscuit dough at a time onto the hot chicken mixture. You should have about 8 biscuits on top of the dish.
  • Return dish to the oven and bake, uncovered, for about 12 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in a biscuit comes out clean.
  • Stir together melted butter and garlic powder; brush over warm biscuits and serve.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh oregano
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons chile flakes
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
12 cloves garlic, smashed
One 4- to 6-pound chicken, cut into 8 pieces

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon juice, olive oil, oregano, rosemary, chile flakes, nutmeg, salt, pepper and garlic. Place the chicken pieces in a resealable bag and pour the marinade in, coating all of the meat. Allow the chicken to marinate, refrigerated, 1 to 4 hours or up to overnight.
  • Set up a grill for cooking with indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only. Allow the temperature to come up to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove the chicken from the marinade. Place the chicken pieces skin-side up on the indirect-heat side of the grill and close the lid. Cook the chicken until almost cooked through, about 10 minutes. Move the chicken pieces over to the direct heat side of the grill and cook until nicely charred and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove from the grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes before serving.

This is from the Scottish/English border region. To make it authentically British, you should use mead (if you can find it!) instead of Southern Comfort. But it's delicious either way.
