Customize It Instructions

  • If using shrimp, pat dry. Cook until pink and shrimp reach minimum internal temperature, 2-3 minutes per side.

  1. 1

    Prepare the Sweet Potatoes

    Place sweet potatoes in a microwave-safe bowl and cover with a damp paper towel.

    Microwave covered until tender, 4-6 minutes.

    Carefully remove from microwave and stir in garlic salt until combined.

  2. 2

    Start the Stew

    Pat chicken dry. Season all over with savory seasoning, 1/4 tsp. salt, and a pinch of pepper. Don't worry about trimming. Excess fat will render while cooking and add flavor.

    Place a large non-stick pan over medium heat and add 2 tsp. olive oil.

    Add chicken to hot pan. Stir occasionally until chicken is browned and reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Finish the Stew

    Add leeks to hot pan with chicken. Stir occasionally until slightly softened, 3-4 minutes.

    Add flour and stir until no dry flour remains.

    Add sweet potatoes, cream base, 1 cup water, and 1/4 tsp. salt. Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.

    Once simmering, stir occasionally until sweet potatoes are tender and stew is thickened, 4-6 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    While stew cooks, continue recipe.

  4. 4

    Toast Biscuits and Finish Dish

    Halve biscuits and separate halves.

    Place another large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.

    Add biscuits to hot, dry pan, cut-side down. Toast until lightly browned, 1-2 minutes.

    Remove from burner.

    Plate dish as pictured on front of card. Bon appétit!
