Ingredients
- 2 Buttermilk biscuits
- 6 oz Ground turkey
- 2 tbsp Flour
- 1 cup Milk
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1/2 tsp Sage
Steps
- Warm the biscuits according to the package directions, or in a 350°F (175°C) oven for 10-12 minutes, until heated through and lightly crisped on top.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the ground turkey with the sage and cook for 6-7 minutes, breaking it into crumbles with a wooden spoon, until no pink remains and the edges are browned.
- Sprinkle the flour evenly over the turkey and stir for 1 minute — this cooks out the raw flour taste and builds the gravy base.
- Pour in the milk a little at a time, whisking constantly as you go to keep the gravy smooth and lump-free.
- Simmer for 4-5 minutes, stirring often, until the gravy thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.
- Season boldly with the black pepper and salt — gravy needs assertive seasoning to taste like anything; taste and add more until it sings.
- Split the warm biscuits in half, set them on plates, and ladle the hot gravy generously over the top.
