Fried Chicken Biscuit Sandwiches
Wondering what to do with your leftover fried chicken? Fried Chicken Biscuit Sandwiches is the answer! These sandwiches start with a fluffy Buttermilk Biscuit topped with a crispy flavorful piece of fried chicken and then (I can’t even get over this) Fried Chicken Country Gravy! Yep, I KNOW! Ridiculous!
I love that something so simple can be so delicious! These Fried Chicken Biscuit Sandwiches are not just great for leftovers but totally awesome for a breakfast buffet or brunch. ANOTHER OPTION: Skip the gravy and drizzle on some honey. I love a savory sandwich with a little bit of sweet added.

Where’s the recipe for the gravy?
Thank you.
Hi Francine, The link to the recipe is at the top of the post (Chicken Country Gravy). There’s also a link in the recipe ingredients.
How do you make the biscuits?
Hi Abigail, For this recipe I used frozen Pillsbury biscuits. They’re a lot better than the ones you get in a can (almost like homemade).
