Homemade Chicken & Biscuits

 Homemade Chicken & Biscuits is such a great staple in the fall and winter months!  This recipe is super easy to put together… its also great to prep before dinner time and then just toss in the oven when your ready!  I love using my 20 Minute Homemade Biscuit recipe as well for it… but your can always use those tubes of biscuits from the store… Although I am highly against those things 😉  I found this yummy recipe here!

  10. Place the Biscuits on top and pop back in the oven for 12-15 minutes.
