**Chicken biscuit: A Southern comfort food classic**

With a flaky, buttery biscuit enveloping a juicy, savory chicken filling, chicken biscuits are a delectable Southern comfort food that have captured the hearts of food lovers for generations. These delectable treats are a staple in many Southern kitchens and can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Whether you prefer a classic fried chicken biscuit with a crispy golden-brown crust or a more modern take with grilled or baked chicken, there's a recipe out there to suit every taste. Some recipes incorporate additional flavors and textures, such as melted cheese, bacon, or tangy pickles, to create unique and irresistible variations.

The biscuit component of this dish is equally crucial. Buttermilk biscuits are a popular choice, known for their soft, tender crumb and slightly tangy flavor. However, other biscuit recipes, such as those made with all-purpose flour or a combination of flours, can also yield delicious results.

With their delightful combination of flavors and textures, chicken biscuits are a versatile dish that can be customized to suit personal preferences and dietary restrictions. Whether you choose to make them from scratch or use pre-made biscuits and chicken, these Southern delights are sure to become a favorite in your kitchen.

FRIED CHICKEN BISCUITS WITH HOT HONEY BUTTER



Fried Chicken Biscuits With Hot Honey Butter image

This recipe for chicken biscuits could be a weeknight dinner with a side of greens, but it's made to travel, and perfectly suited for a picnic. The biscuit dough, adapted from Sam Sifton's all-purpose biscuit recipe, is lightly kneaded here, so it's not too tender to work in a sandwich. The chicken tenders, inspired by Masaharu Morimoto's katsu in the cookbook "Mastering the Art of Japanese Home Cooking," are pounded and coated in panko for plenty of crunch. Prepare both components the day you want to eat them, giving yourself at least one extra hour for everything to cool before you assemble, so the sandwich stays crisp. You can also cook well in advance, and assemble the sandwiches the next day. Either way, cooling the chicken completely, on a wire rack, is crucial. If you prefer breast meat over thigh, feel free to swap it in.

Categories     dinner, lunch, poultry, sandwiches, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups/450 grams all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons/37 grams baking powder
1 tablespoon sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
7 tablespoons/100 grams cold unsalted butter, cubed
1 1/2 cups/360 milliliters whole milk
6 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
3/4 cup/113 grams all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons cayenne
2 teaspoons kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
3 eggs
3 cups/270 grams panko bread crumbs
Canola or other neutral oil, for frying
10 tablespoons/142 grams unsalted butter, softened
3 tablespoons honey
Hot sauce, a vinegary variety such as Crystal, to taste
Sliced dill pickles, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the biscuits: In a bowl, use a fork to mix the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. Add butter and use the fork to mash it into the flour until the mixture resembles large, lumpy crumbs. Stir in milk until a dough comes together.
  • Flour your hands, then gently gather and knead the dough in the bowl for 2 to 3 minutes, or until it springs back slightly to the touch. (If the dough is sticky, sprinkle additional flour as needed.) Cover bowl loosely with plastic wrap and rest dough in fridge for half hour.
  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. On a lightly floured surface, use a floured rolling pin to roll the dough to 1 to 1 1/2 inch thickness. Use a floured knife or round cutter to cut 6 biscuits, about 3 1/2 inches wide. Reroll the scraps and cut again as needed.
  • Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until they have puffed up and the tops are slightly golden. Let cool completely on a wired rack at room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container if not using until the next day.
  • Prepare the chicken: Trim excess fat and any membranes from the meat, then lightly hammer the thickest parts of the thighs with a mallet or rolling pin. Season each side with salt.
  • Mix flour, cayenne and salt in one wide bowl. Beat eggs in a second wide bowl, and place panko in a third. Dip each chicken thigh in flour, coating it all over and patting off the excess, then in egg, allowing extra egg to drip off, then in panko, making sure each thigh is entirely coated in bread crumbs, and using your hands to press loose crumbs into any places where they look scarce.
  • In a large, heavy bottomed skillet, pour in oil to a 2-inch depth and heat to 350 degrees. Fry 2 thighs at a time, flipping them over every two minutes or so, until golden brown and crisp all over, about 8 minutes total. Transfer to a wire rack set over a paper towel-lined sheet pan and season lightly with salt. Let cool entirely at room temperature, at least 1 hour. At this point, you can assemble the sandwiches or transfer the rack to the fridge and leave the chicken uncovered overnight.
  • Assemble the sandwiches: When both the chicken and biscuits have cooled (or the next day), mix together soft butter, honey and hot sauce until smooth. Cut open cooled biscuits, smear each cut side with honey butter, and sandwich with a piece of chicken. If traveling, loosely wrap each sandwich in a piece of parchment paper and pack side by side in a hard container, in a single layer, so the sandwiches aren't crushed. Serve with additional hot sauce and pickles on the side.

Categories     Soups, Stews and Chili Recipes     Soup Recipes     Chicken Soup Recipes

Time 3h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 (4 pound) whole chicken, rinsed
2 quarts water
1 large bay leaf
1 whole clove
4 cloves garlic, peeled
½ cup butter
3 carrots, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 ribs celery, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 large onion, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
6 mushrooms, quartered
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon paprika
½ cup all-purpose flour
½ cup milk
1 tablespoon herbes de Provence
3 tablespoons fresh tarragon, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
1 (10 ounce) can refrigerated biscuit dough

Steps:

  • Place chicken in large (9-quart) stock pot, pour in water, and drop in bay leaf and single clove. Bring to simmer over medium-low heat. As foam rises to the top of the broth, skim and discard with a ladle. Add peeled garlic cloves, cover pot, and simmer on low for 1 hour.
  • Remove chicken from pot, and allow to cool for a few minutes. When cool enough to handle, remove all meat from the bones, and set the chicken meat aside. Pour stock into a bowl and set aside.
  • In a large oven-safe pot or Dutch oven over medium heat, melt butter, and cook and stir carrots, celery, onion, and mushrooms until the vegetables start to become tender, about 10 minutes. Season with salt, white pepper, cayenne pepper, black pepper and paprika. Mix in flour, stirring to coat vegetables with flour, about 5 minutes. Add half of reserved stock, and stir with the vegetables and flour to form a very thick sauce. Stir in remaining stock until sauce is smooth; reduce heat to a simmer, and cook uncovered for 45 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Stir milk into the sauce, and gently mix in the reserved chicken meat, herbes de Provence, tarragon, and rosemary. Bring stew back to a simmer, and cook for 10 more minutes. Pop open the can of biscuits, separate, and place biscuits on top of stew.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the biscuits are golden brown and the stew is bubbling, about 20 minutes. Place lid on the pot or Dutch oven, and return to oven; bake until biscuits are cooked through, about 15 more minutes. Test biscuits for doneness by pulling apart a biscuit near the middle of the stew to see if it's cooked through.

CHICKEN POTPIE WITH CORNBREAD BISCUITS



Chicken Potpie With Cornbread Biscuits image

A showstopper of a dinner made for cold nights, this spin on classic chicken pot pie is the perfect all-in-one dinner when you're craving something hearty and comforting. The cornmeal and buttermilk biscuits that bake on top of the filling are the best of both worlds: crisp and flaky on top and soft and dumpling-like on the bottom. A hint of sweetness in the biscuits makes them reminiscent of classic American cornbread. This is not a recipe for rushed weeknights, though you can save time by making the biscuit dough and prepping the vegetables in advance (see Tip).

Provided by Lidey Heuck

Categories     dinner, poultry, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 1/2 to 2 pounds bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts (2 breasts)
Olive oil
Kosher salt and black pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
3 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
4 large celery stalks, trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 1 1/2 cups)
1 medium yellow onion, chopped (about 1 1/2 cups)
2 teaspoons minced fresh rosemary
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup whole milk
3 tablespoons dry sherry
2 tablespoons minced fresh chives or parsley
1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon water, for egg wash
1 1/4 cups/160 grams all-purpose flour
3/4 cup/105 grams yellow cornmeal
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
5 tablespoons/70 grams chilled unsalted butter, diced
3/4 cup/180 milliliters buttermilk, shaken

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 400 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment paper.
  • Pat the chicken breasts dry and place them on the prepared sheet pan. Rub all over with olive oil and sprinkle generously with salt and pepper. Roast until just cooked through, 35 to 45 minutes, depending on the size of the breasts. Set aside until cool enough to handle, then discard the skin and bones and shred the meat into bite-size pieces.
  • While the chicken roasts, begin making the biscuits: In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt. Whisk until well combined. Add the butter, and working quickly, cut the butter into the flour using your fingers or a pastry cutter, until it forms crumbles about the size of peas. Switch to a fork, and stir constantly while adding the buttermilk in a slow, steady steam. Mix just until a wet, sticky dough forms. (Do not overmix!) Scrape the dough onto a piece of plastic wrap, pat it into a mound, then wrap and chill it in the refrigerator while you make the filling.
  • In a 10-inch cast-iron skillet, melt the 3 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the carrots, celery, onion and rosemary, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 10 to 12 minutes.
  • Add the flour and cook, stirring constantly, for 30 seconds, or until no white clumps of flour are visible. Add the chicken stock, milk, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Turn the heat to low and simmer, stirring often and scraping the bottom of the pan, until very thick, 7 to 10 minutes; remove from heat. Add the sherry, chives and chicken, and stir until well combined.
  • Unwrap the chilled biscuit dough and place it on a well-floured surface. Working quickly (you want the biscuits to be as cold as possible when they go into the oven) lightly press the dough with your hands into a rectangle about 3/4-inch thick. Fold the dough in half and press once more to a 3/4-inch-thick rectangle. Cut out biscuits with a 2 1/2- to 3-inch-round cutter and arrange them on top of the filling. (You should have about 10 biscuits.)
  • Brush the tops of the biscuits with the egg wash. Place the skillet on a sheet pan to catch any drips, and bake, uncovered, for 20 to 30 minutes, until biscuits are puffed and golden. Cool for 10 minutes to let the filling thicken slightly, then serve.

Time 1h20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 23

2 ½ cups chicken stock, or more as needed
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1 tablespoon salted butter
1 cup sliced carrots
1 stalk celery, sliced
1 (16 ounce) package white button mushrooms, sliced
¾ cup chopped yellow onion
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ cup all-purpose flour
2 pounds cooked potatoes, chopped
1 ½ cups fat-free half-and-half
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried rosemary
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons shortening
1 cup plain low-fat yogurt
2 tablespoons fat-free half-and-half

Steps:

  • Bring 2 1/2 cups chicken stock to a boil over medium-high heat. Add chicken and boil until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 10 minutes. Remove chicken to a plate to cool. Shred meat with 2 forks. Reserve stock.
  • Melt butter in a pan over medium heat. Add carrots and celery; saute for 4 minutes. Add mushrooms, onion, and garlic; cook for 2 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix flour and 2 teaspoons reserved stock in a small bowl. Gradually whisk in more stock until it's thin and lump-free; set aside.

Add half-and-half, peas, thyme, rosemary, salt, pepper, and shredded chicken. Reduce heat to low and simmer while you prepare the biscuits, adding more stock if necessary.
  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Mix 2 cups flour, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt together in a large bowl. Cut in shortening with 2 knives or a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs (this may take a while). Add yogurt and half-and-half and mix just until mixture comes together. Knead a few times, roll out to a 1-inch thickness, and cut with biscuit cutters. Repeat to reuse dough, adding more flour as needed.
  • Transfer stew into a 2-quart casserole dish and put biscuits on top.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until biscuits are cooked and nicely browned on top, 20 to 25 minutes.

CHICKEN BISCUITS



Chicken Biscuits image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h5m

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 20

7 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
2 cups pastry flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pound butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, cold
3 3/4 cups buttermilk
1 egg
1 tablespoon heavy cream
1 cup buttermilk
1 tablespoon hot sauce
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 chicken cutlets, pounded 1/2-inch thick
2 cups vegetable oil
2 cups plain breadcrumbs or panko
1/2 cup (1 stick) butter, soft
1/2 cup honey
Hot sauce, such as Frank's RedHot, for serving

Steps:

  • For the biscuits: Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.
  • Mix flours, baking powder, salt and baking soda in a bowl. Add cubed butter and toss. Pulse mixture in food processor until butter is pea-sized. Put this in a large bowl and add buttermilk. Mix with hands until dough comes together but still has shaggy bits, then dump onto a floured table.
  • Work with the heel of your hand pushing the dough into the table away from you and roll it back onto itself. Continue heeling and rolling until dough is smooth, but do not overmix. (Pieces of butter should still be visible.)
  • Use a rolling pin to roll the dough until it's about 1 1/2 inches thick.
  • Flour a round biscuit cutter and cut the biscuits. Flip the biscuits and place on a sheet pan.
  • Beat together the egg and heavy cream in a small bowl. Brush biscuits with egg wash.
  • Bake 22 minutes.
  • For the fried chicken cutlets: Combine buttermilk, hot sauce, salt, cayenne and black pepper in a resealable plastic bag; add chicken. Seal bag, turn to coat, and chill 1 to 3 hours.
  • Pour oil into a large skillet to a depth of 1/2-inch and heat over medium-high heat until oil bubbles immediately when a sprinkle of breadcrumbs is added. (Oil should be at 325 degrees F.)
  • Meanwhile, place breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl. Remove chicken from marinade. Dredge chicken in breadcrumbs, shaking off excess. Working in 2 batches and maintaining oil temperature, fry chicken until golden brown, crisp, and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain.
  • For the honey butter and sandwich assembly: Whisk together the butter and honey in a bowl.
  • Split a biscuit and slather both halves with honey butter. Place a fried cutlet on bottom half and pour a generous amount of hot sauce over. Top with other biscuit half. Repeat with the remaining chicken cutlets. Save remaining biscuits for another use.

Tips:

  • Make sure the chicken is cooked all the way through before adding it to the biscuits. This will help prevent the biscuits from becoming soggy.
  • Use a sharp knife to cut the biscuits. This will help to create clean edges and prevent the biscuits from tearing.
  • Don't overmix the biscuit dough. Overmixing will make the biscuits tough.
  • Bake the biscuits in a hot oven. This will help them to rise quickly and evenly.
  • Serve the biscuits warm with your favorite gravy or dipping sauce.

Conclusion:
