Alfredo Chicken 'n Biscuits


This is from the Taste of Home Magazine Quick Cooking. I thought it was absolutely delightful. I rarely make a dish where it turns out looking exactly like the picture, but this one did, and it really was super easy to make. I thought about maybe next time adding some linguini noodles to it and making it a baked pasta. Oh and I changed the refrigerated alfredo sauce to bottled and it worked out just fine.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups chopped fresh broccoli
  • 1-1/2 cups sliced fresh carrots
  • 1 cup chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons Crisco® Pure Olive Oil
  • 2 cups cubed cooked chicken
  • 1 carton (10 ounces) refrigerated Alfredo sauce
  • 1 cup biscuit/baking mix
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon dill weed

Directions

  • In a large skillet, saute the broccoli, carrots and onion in oil until crisp-tender. Stir in chicken and Alfredo sauce; heat through. Transfer to a lightly greased 8-in. square baking dish.
  • In a small bowl, combine the baking mix, milk and dill just until moistened. Drop by rounded tablespoonfuls onto chicken mixture.
  • Bake, uncovered, at 400° for 18-22 minutes or until bubbly and biscuits are golden brown. Yield: 4 servings.
Happy Cooking

Two simple cobbler recipe variations

Recipe #1
Peach Cobbler (dump cake)
2 cans small cans canned peaches
(Or one large can)
dump these juice and all into non-
greased 9x13 cake pan. Cut into smaller
bite size pieces.
1 yellow cake mix (do not prepare)
sprinkle the entire box over the peaches.
1 stick (1/2 Cup) butter cut into pieces
and dot all over the cake mix
3/4 cup brown sugar (packed)
1 cup chopped walnuts
Sprinkle the brown sugar and then
nuts on top of the butter.
Bake at 350 for 35 minutes.
Very good hot with vanilla ice cream.
Recipe #2
Apple Cobbler (dump cake)
2 cans apple pie filling
Dump these into 9x13 ungreased cake pan.
Cuts into smaller bite size pieces.
1 Spice cake mix (do not prepare)
Sprinkle entire box over the apples.
1 stick (1/2) cup butter, cut into small
