Grandma Nancys Chicken And Biscuits Recipes

Steps:

• 1 Preheat oven to 350°F Grease the bottom and sides of an 11x7-inch baking dish. 2 Chop onion. 3 Heat butter in a small nonstick skillet over medium-high head until melted. 4 Stir in onion. 5 Saute until tender. 6 Combine onion, chicken, soup, sour cream, milk, and pimiento in a medium bowl and mix well. 7 Spoon mixture into prepared baking dish. 8 Bake for 15 minutes; remove from oven. 9 Sprinkle baked layer with 3/4 cup of the Cheddar. 10 Arrange biscuits in a single layer over top; sprinkle with remaining Cheddar. 11 Bake until biscuits are golden brown and sauce is bubbly, about 20 minutes. 12 Serve immediately.

Steps:

• For the chicken: Whisk together the eggs, buttermilk and hot sauce in a shallow casserole dish.
• In a second shallow casserole dish, combine the flour, cornstarch, salt and pepper.
• Place the chicken cutlets into the flour mixture, coating evenly on each side and shaking off the excess. Then place the chicken into the egg wash, coating the pieces on both sides. Dredge the chicken a second time in flour and egg. (If you like, you can dredge a third time; the breading will be thicker with every coating.)
• Heat the shortening in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Fry the breaded chicken until golden brown, about 2 minutes; flip and continue cooking until golden brown and cooked through, another 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain.
• For the gravy: Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour and whisk until smooth. Cook until the mixture begins to turn golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Whisk in the milk and cook until thick and smooth, another 3 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• For the hot sauce: In a small bowl, mix together the melted butter, cayenne, paprika, brown sugar, salt, pepper and garlic powder.
• To serve: Brush the chicken with the warm hot sauce. Place chicken pieces onto the bottom halves of the biscuits and top with white gravy and pickle slices. Cover with the biscuit tops and serve immediately.
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and 3 tablespoons of the sugar.
• In a small bowl, combine the warm water with the yeast and the remaining 2 tablespoons sugar; stir until the yeast is dissolved. Let stand until bubbles appear, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Using your hands, mix the 1 cup cold butter into the flour, breaking the butter into small pebbles, until the mixture resembles coarse meal. Make a well in the center and add the buttermilk and the yeast mixture. Gently fold the flour into the wet ingredients. Keep mixing until a ball starts to form, then gently knead, 12 to 15 times, to create a smooth dough. Cover with a cloth or plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for approximately 1 hour.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly floured work surface and press out to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick. Fold the dough in half, press again to 1- to 1 1/2-inches thick, and then fold again. Cut the dough using a 2- to 3-inch round biscuit cutter, depending personal preference. Brush the bottom of a cast-iron skillet with some of the melted butter. Place the biscuits in the skillet; brush the tops with melted butter.
• Bake until golden brown, 18 to 22 minutes, depending on size. Brush again with melted butter and serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Cook chicken meat in water with vegetables, bouillon, and seasonings. When meat is done remove it from pot. Allow to cool and cut in bite sized pieces.
• 2. Return meat to pot and add noodles. Bring heat back up to a simmer, cover, and cook until noodles are done. Your dish should not be soupy but thick. If need be thicken the juices with a bit of Wondra flour stirred in. Adjust seasonings.
• 3. This dish is usually served over mashed potatoes in Northern Indiana.

Steps:

• The chicken can be whole pieces or bite sized whatever you prefer. I like to cut chicken breast into bite sized pieces.
• In a large soup pot boil chicken in water or chicken broth. Add garlic, salt and pepper to taste.
• While chicken is boiling combine flour, salt and eggs into a large mixing bowl. Start with a 1/4 cup of milk and add more milk or flour to get a pie crust type consistency.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface as thin as you like remembering that the noodles will probably double in thickness when cooking (Thinner the better in my mind). Cut the noodles with a pizza or noodle cutter. I typically cut them into 1/2 inch by 5 inch pieces.
• If the chicken is finished cooking then add the noodles into the boiling broth and cook until done. (If they are not finished you will see a white center, the noodles turn yellow when cooked) Takes about 5 minutes to cook at the thickness that I roll the noodles.
• Add the worcestershire sauce and butter.
• Serve in a bowl or plate depending on if you want lots of broth or not and I recommend sprinkling parmesean cheese over the top when finished.
