Honey Orange Basil Chicken and Whole-Wheat Cheddar Garlic Drop Biscuits

For dinner the other night we had Honey Orange Basil Chicken, roasted brussel sprouts, Whole-Wheat Cheddar Garlic Drop Biscuits and orange slices for dessert.

The chicken was good.  Next time I will probably do a few things differently with this recipe.  I probably should have used fresh parsley (instead of dried), like the recipes calls for.  Also, our grill isn't working right now, so I sauteed the chicken on the stove in coconut oil and with sliced red bell pepper.  The grill may have made it taste a little better???

As for the biscuits...they were out of this world!!  This is a recipe we will be making over and over!  Just a helpful note:  do as the directions say and simply drop the biscuit dough onto the baking sheet.  I thought they needed a little flattening out before cooking, but they flatten themselves out, so mine turned out looking like pancakes!  Even though they were a little flat (o.k., a lot flat!), they were still so yummy!!!

Enjoy!
