Turkey and Biscuit Bake

Chicken From The Oven
Prep time:
15 minutes
Cooking time:

For the most economical turkey bake, use leftover cooked poultry. Otherwise, the thriftiest plan is to make homemade stock by boiling a hen, use 2 cups, then use the extra meat and broth for other meals.

For fewer leftover biscuit halves, purchase an 8-count can of large, flaky-type biscuits. Make and freeze the extra biscuits.

Great Pairings

Cranberry-Apple Crisp

All-purpose apples, good both for eating raw and for cooking, are usually the least expensive apples sold in the market. Choose from such varieties as Cortland, Crispin, Granny Smith, McIntosh or Winesap.
