8 Pieces, 4 Biscuits, 2 Large Sides Recipe

Mix Dry Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Whisk together until well blended.

Cut in Butter

Add 0.5 cups of cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces, to the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Add Milk

Pour in 0.75 cups of milk and stir until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix.

Shape Biscuits

Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently knead it a few times. Pat the dough down to about 1 inch thick and cut out biscuits using a round cutter.

Bake Biscuits

Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). Place biscuits on a baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Prep Chicken

Rinse the 8 chicken pieces under cold water and pat dry with paper towels.

Season Chicken

In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of paprika, 1 teaspoon of garlic powder, 1 teaspoon of onion powder, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 0.5 teaspoons of black pepper. Rub this mixture all over the chicken pieces.

Bake Chicken

Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and juices run clear.

Cook Mashed Potatoes

Boil 4 cups of peeled and diced potatoes in salted water until tender. Drain and mash with 2 tablespoons of butter and salt and pepper to taste.

Prepare Green Beans

In a pot, bring water to a boil and blanch 4 cups of green beans for about 3-4 minutes. Drain and season with butter, salt, and pepper to taste.
