• 1 cup skim milk
• 0.5 cup plain non-fat Greek yogurt
• 0.5 pound lean ground turkey sausage
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix together 2 cups of all-purpose flour, 1.5 tablespoons of baking powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of salt.

Step 3

Add 1 cup of skim milk and 0.5 cup of plain non-fat Greek yogurt to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

On a floured surface, knead the dough gently a few times until smooth. Flatten into a 1/2-inch thick round and cut out biscuits using a biscuit cutter.

Step 5

Place the biscuits on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 12-15 minutes, until golden brown.

Step 6

While the biscuits bake, in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook 0.5 pound of lean ground turkey sausage, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through.

Step 7

Stir in 0.5 teaspoon of onion powder, 0.5 teaspoon of garlic powder, and 0.5 teaspoon of black pepper.

Step 8

Meanwhile, whisk together 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.

Step 9

Add 2 cups of low-sodium chicken broth to the skillet with the sausage. Bring to a simmer.

Step 10

Stir the cornstarch slurry into the skillet and continue to simmer until the gravy thickens, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 11

Taste and adjust the seasoning if necessary.

Step 12

Serve the biscuits warm, topped with the sausage gravy. Enjoy!
