Ingredients

mushrooms

milk

chicken broth

peas

butter

flour

olive oil

biscuits

pimientos

cooked chicken

Cook the mushrooms

01

Cook the mushrooms until softened with the olive oil in a large skillet. I like to use a cast iron skillet. Remove from the skillet.

Melt the butter

02

In that same skillet, melt the butter.

Add the flour

03

When the butter is melted, whisk in the flour and cook for a minute.

Whisk in the liquid

04

Slowly add in the liquid, whisking the whole time to avoid lumps.

Thicken the sauce

05

Cook until the sauce has thickened and is bubbling.

Combine

06

Add in the mushrooms, peas, chicken and pimientos. Stir to combine.

Top the biscuits with the gravy
