Creamy Chicken N' Biscuits

Being from the south, I love comfort food. It soothes the soul and warms the heart. One of my favorite meats is chicken because its so versatile and the possibilities are endless! This recipe is not fat free or diet friendly, so I wouldn't cook this very often but since I've been sick and haven't cooked a good meal in a while, I'm making this tonight.

Ingredients:
2 cups of chicken, cut into one inch pieces
1 medium chopped onion
3 cups of mixed vegetables (you can find these canned or frozen, and you may or may not need all 3 cups)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 can cream of mushroom soup (you can use any, i.e. chicken, cheese, celery)
1 cup sour cream
1 cup cheddar cheese
1 package of Bisquick Complete Cheese Garlic Biscuits (you can find this in the baking isle of your grocery store, and it costs about $2)

Directions: Preheat Oven to 400 degrees. Sautee chicken and add the onion when the chicken is about half way cooked. Cook until chicken is done. Add vegetables, cream of mushroom soup, sour cream, and cheese. Heat through. Place in baking dish and spread evenly. Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, remove dish and heat oven to 450 degrees. Mix together the biscuit mixture and put spoonfuls of biscuit mixture over the chicken dish. Bake at 450 for another 8 to 11 minutes, until biscuits are done. Enjoy!



Some side notes: You can use fresh vegetables, I just used what I had on hand. You can also make the biscuits from scratch. Again, this was easier for me and its what I had. If you make your own, make enough for 6 biscuits. You also need to season the meat to your liking. I used salt, pepper, fresh garlic, and one medium onion. The amount of vegetables I used was just under three cups, so that's fine also. Again, you may or may not need all three cups.
