This recipe is a delicious twist on the classic biscuits and gravy. I love a good chicken pot pie but wanted a quicker version. The homemade biscuits in this recipe are amazing.  If you haven’t already tried the easy homemade biscuits recipe I shared a few weeks ago, you are in for a real treat! They are very simple to make and are out of this world!

The creamy chicken gravy tastes like chicken pot pie. After tasting this dish, you will want to get your southern drawl on! Don’t just take my world for it, give this mouthwatering dish a try.

With love from my kitchen to yours,

Bring the gravy to a boil and then turn down the heat to medium-low. Add the salt and sage. Then let the gravy simmer, stirring ocasionally until it thickens. About 10 to 15 minutes.
