Creamed Chicken on Biscuits

Mom hated to cook so she started using cream of chicken soup rather than a
thick white sauce. Another cheat: she used Bisquik

Boil 2 lbs. chicken breast halves in water to cover. Throw in a couple of
bay leaves and peppercorns. Remove the chicken to a platter to cool, then
debone it and add the meat back to the pot with the broth. Stir in 2 cans
cream of chicken soup and 2 cans of milk. Bring to a boil, then cover and
simmer about 20 minutes. Spoon creamed chicken over hot crumbled biscuits.
