Savory Sausage Gravy over Fluffy Biscuits

Ingredients

- 1 pound breakfast sausage
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 fluffy biscuits

Instructions

1. Begin the Gravy:
In a large skillet over medium heat, add the breakfast sausage. Cook, breaking it up with a spatula, until well browned and cooked through, approximately PT10M (10 minutes).

2. Sauté Onion and Thyme:
Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the butter to the skillet. Once melted, add the finely chopped onion and fresh thyme. Sauté until the onion is translucent and aromatic, about PT5M (5 minutes).

3. Incorporate the Flour:
Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the sausage and onion mixture, stirring constantly to ensure even coating. Cook for PT2M (2 minutes) to remove the raw flour taste.

4. Create the Gravy Base:
Slowly pour in the milk, stirring as you pour to avoid lumps. Increase the heat to medium and continue to stir until the mixture thickens, about PT5M (5 minutes).

5. Season to Perfection:
Season the gravy with fine sea salt and black pepper. Adjust to taste as desired. Simmer for an additional PT2M (2 minutes) to blend all flavors.

6. Prepare the Biscuits:
While the gravy is simmering, heat or bake your fluffy biscuits according to the package or your recipe directions until they are golden brown and warm.

7. Serve:
Split the warm biscuits in half and generously ladle the savory sausage gravy over each half. Serve immediately for a hearty breakfast experience.
