MY OVEN "FRIED" CHICKEN AND BISCUITS

Steps:

• 1. IMPORTANT NOTE: the timing for this recipe is based on using good sized chicken breasts with skin on and bone in; if using other parts, please adjust the timing.
• 2. Put the 1/3 cup of shortening and 1/3 cup butter in 9x13-inch baking pan lined with foil. I use solid Crisco.
• 3. Put baking pan into cold oven and heat oven to 400°F
• 4. Meanwhile, put biscuit mix and seasonings in large plastic bag.
• 5. Put one piece of chicken in bag and shake to coat.
• 6. Do this for all pieces.
• 7. When 400°F is reached, remove the pan from the oven.
• 8. Place chicken pieces 'skin' side down in hot pan.
• 9. Bake for approx 35 minutes.
• 10. Meanwhile, using the Bisquick left in the bag, add enough Bisquick and milk to make a recipe of biscuits per directions on box.
• 11. You can make drop or rolled biscuits.
• 12. When the time is up on the chicken, remove the pan from the oven, turn the pieces over and CROWD them over to one short side of pan.
• 13. On other side, place or drop biscuits close together in all those gorgeous juices
• 14. Put back into oven and bake for 15 or more minutes, until biscuits are done.
• 15. There is no need to butter THESE biscuits, they have soaked up all the juices etc from the baking pan!
• 16. ENJOY!
