Ingredients
  

For the Biscuits:

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

½ teaspoon baking soda

½ cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

1 cup buttermilk

For the Chorizo Gravy:

1 pound chorizo sausage, casings removed

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

3 cups whole milk

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 teaspoon paprika

Salt to taste

Chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Instructions
 

Prepare the Biscuits:

    - Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).

      - In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and baking soda.

        - Add the cubed cold butter and use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to work it into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

          - Pour in the buttermilk and mix until just combined. Do not overwork the dough.

            Shape the Biscuits:

              - Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and gently pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle.

                - Using a biscuit cutter, cut out biscuits and place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, making sure they are close but not touching.

                  - Bake in the preheated oven for about 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

                    Cook the Chorizo Gravy:

                      - In a large skillet, cook the chorizo over medium heat until browned and fully cooked, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks.

                        - Once cooked, sprinkle the flour over the chorizo, stirring to combine, and cook for about 1 minute.

                          - Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps.

                            - Continue to cook, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens (about 5-7 minutes).

                              - Season with black pepper, paprika, and salt if needed.

                                Serve:

                                  - Split the biscuits in half, spoon the chorizo gravy generously over each half, and garnish with chopped parsley.

                                    - Enjoy while hot!
