INGREDIENTS

  • 1/4 cup chopped green pepper
  • 3 tablespoons chopped onion
  • 2 tablespoons butter or margarine
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 3/4 cups milk
  • 1 (10.75 ounce) can condensed cream of chicken soup, undiluted
  • 2 cups cubed fully cooked ham
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • BISCUITS:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons shortening
  • 3/4 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
  • 1/3 cup milk
  • 1 teaspoon diced pimientos

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large skillet, saute green pepper and onion in butter until tender. Stir in flour until blended. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Whisk in soup until blended. Stir in the ham and lemon juice; heat through. Pour into a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Bake, uncovered, at 375 degrees F for 10 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the flour, baking powder and salt; cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese, milk and pimientos just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; knead gently 4-5 times. Roll to about 1/2-in. thickness; cut out six biscuits with a 2-1/2-in. biscuit cutter. Arrange biscuits over ham mixture. Bake 18-22 minutes longer or until biscuits are golden brown. Serve in individual dishes.
