Twenty Minutes To Done!

A home cooked meal done in under twenty minutes?! Ummm, yes please!!!!

A home cooked meal done in under twenty minutes that costs less than $5.00 to make AND the whole family likes???  Even. Better. We're talking I'd give you my left kidney better.

I originally found the recipe here, but I am now sharing it here because it's just too awesome of a recipe to not share.

Chicken And Biscuits
1 stick of butter
4-5 chicken breasts, cooked and cubed
1/2 c, flour
1 can chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste
milk
1-2 cans tubed biscuits

Make It!
Combine butter, salt, pepper and chicken broth in a saucepan. Cook till butter is melted. Meanwhile, place chicken in a 9x13 pan. When butter is melted and hot, add flour and whisk until smooth. If the sauce gets too thick, add a little milk to thin it out. When the sauce is desired consistency, pour over the chicken. Top with the biscuits then bake the whole thing according to the biscuit directions. That's it!

Twenty minutes to done and you get to feel like Betty Homemaker because you made your family a home cooked meal!

On a side note, I don't know why I am on an inexpensive dinners kick these days, but I am. So I am rolling with it.

And yes, I know this isn't exactly "healthy" eating and won't really assist me in losing the baby weight, but for the record, I served it with brown rice, steamed mixed vegetables and cut up fresh fruit. I stuck to the rice, steamed veggies and fruit.

    1. AND I used reduced sodium chicken broth so that totally counts, right?! We'll just ignore the butter and call it good. :D

      Thanks for taking the time to stop by and comment!
