Chicken, Biscuits & Gravy Casserole


Rachael Ray strikes again... not so much a fan of hers as I am of her recipes and her magazine, which has some tasty recipes. This latest one, from her April/May '06 issue, for Chicken, Biscuits & Gravy Casserole was a hit with everyone - including Will, who is a picky kid. He even ate the onions - not that we told him what they were, hoping that they were cleverly hidden amongst the chicken.

Enjoy.

Chicken, Biscuits ’n’ Gravy Casserole

From Every Day with Rachael Ray
April-May 2006

4 Servings
Prep Time: 20 min; Cook Time: 25 min
Thanks to a rotisserie chicken, this casserole can be made in a flash.


One medium to large rotisserie chicken

7 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for greasing the dish

8 ounces white mushrooms, thinly sliced


1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 celery ribs, finely chopped

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

1 cup chicken broth

1 cup milk


1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Salt and freshly ground pepper

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

2 cups baking mix, such as Bisquick

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1. Preheat the oven to 425°. Butter a large casserole dish. Pull the meat off the chicken, shredding it with your fingers or a fork into the baking dish.

2. In a large skillet, melt 3 tablespoons of the butter over high heat. Add the mushrooms, onion and celery and cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms are browned, about 6 minutes. Lower the heat to medium, sprinkle the flour into the skillet and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Stir in the chicken broth, bring to a simmer and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Stir in 1/3 cup of the milk and simmer for 1 minute more. Remove the skillet from the heat, add the lemon juice, and add salt and pepper to taste. Pour the gravy over the chicken in the baking dish.

3. Melt the remaining 4 tablespoons of butter with the garlic.

4. Stir together the baking mix, the remaining 2/3 cup of milk and the cheese. Drop tablespoonfuls of the biscuit mixture on top of the casserole and brush with half of the garlic butter. Bake until the biscuits are golden brown, about 25 minutes, brushing them once or twice with the remaining garlic butter.
