Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup Butter, cut into pieces
  • 2 cup Cut-up cooked turkey
  • 1/2 cup Gold Medal Wondra flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon Dried basil leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Pepper
  • 1 cup Chicken broth
  • 2/3 cup Milk
  • 1 cup Julienne strips red bell
Directions
  1. 1
    Preheat oven to 400F (204C).
  2. 2
    Heat butter in a 2-quart oven-safe casserole dish in the oven until melted.

    Remove casserole from oven. Stir in flour, dried basil, salt, pepper, chicken broth, milk, red bell peppers, and cooked turkey until well combined.
  4. 4
    Return casserole to oven and bake for 20 minutes, stirring once halfway through, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
  5. 5
    Remove from oven and stir in spinach (or any additional greens if desired).

  7. 7
    Stir in just enough milk (about 1/2 cup) until the dough forms a ball.

    Knead dough on a lightly floured surface 5-7 times, then roll or pat out to 1/2-inch thickness.
  9. 9
    Cut dough into 2-inch rounds using a floured cutter.
  10. 10
    Place biscuits around the edge of the casserole, overlapping them slightly to fit.
  11. 11
    Increase oven temperature to 425F (218C).
  12. 12
    Bake for 15-20 minutes longer, or until biscuits are golden brown and sauce is bubbly.
