Ingredients

Instructions

  • Heat a medium nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the sausage and cook until browned, using a wooden spoon to break it apart as it cooks. Once the sausage is browned, add the butter and cook until melted.
  • Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and stir with a wooden spoon to create a paste. Continue to cook the flour with the sausage for another minute. Slowly pour the milk into the pan while stirring so lumps do not form.
  • Season the gravy with onion powder, paprika, crushed red pepper, salt, and cracked black pepper, and continue to cook the gravy for 5 to 7 minutes, or until thickened, stirring often.
  • Place two warm biscuits on a plate and slice them in half. Spoon sausage gravy over the biscuits and top with fresh chopped parsley if desired. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Pork or turkey sausage works for this recipe.
  • Leftover biscuits and gravy can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
