How to make sausage gravy biscuit dip
I am making a pretty traditional sausage gravy but saving a little time by using store bought biscuit dough.
First put some olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat along with a pound of breakfast sausage and onions.
Season with a little kosher salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes and cook for 7 to 9 minutes breaking apart the sausage as it cooks.
Then start adding 1/4 cup of flour to the sausage.
There will be enough fat in the skillet from the olive oil and sausage for the flour to mix and create a roux to thicken the gravy.
Cook the flour together with the sausage stirring a few times for two to three minutes.
This will allow time for the raw flour taste to cook out.
Next add in 2 1/2 cups of milk along with more kosher salt, pepper, and crushed red pepper flakes.
Bring to a boil and then reduce the heat to medium and simmer for 11 to 13 minutes stirring a few times.
While the gravy was simmering away and getting nice and thick, I started the biscuit ring in a 12 inch cast iron skillet that I greased really well.
Cut each of the eight biscuit dough pieces into fourths and arrange them around the skillet overlapping as needed.
Bake this by itself in a 375 degree oven for about 8 to 9 minutes.
Once the gravy is cooked add in 3/4 a cup of shredded pepper jack cheese and stir it until the cheese is melted.
Taste for seasoning and add more kosher salt, pepper, and or crushed red pepper flakes if needed
Then pour the sausage gravy in the center of the half cooked biscuits.
And placed back in the 375 degree oven for 11 to 13 minutes.
Let the sausage gravy biscuit dip cool slightly before serving.
You could enjoy this as a dip, or put some of the smaller biscuits along with the gravy on your plate and enjoy with a fork.
YUM!
