Preheat the #oven to 400°F and lightly grease a #baking sheet.

Cut @butter{1.5%oz} into small pieces.

In a #mixing bowl, combine Biscuit Starter (flour, baking powder, dried parsley, salt, garlic powder), @shredded cheddar{1/4%cup} & butter with a fork or your hands until butter is incorporated and resembles small peas.

Add @milk{1/4%cup} to the biscuit mixture and stir until just moistened.

Use a 1/4 cup scoop to drop biscuits onto the prepared pan.

Heat ~{1%tbsp} oil in a #sauté pan over medium-high.

Pat @chicken breasts{2} dry then sprinkle with @salt{} & @pepper{}.

Add chicken to the hot pan and brown ~{3-4%minutes} per side.

Reduce heat to low, then add BBQ sauce, spoon over top of chicken, cover and cook ~{5-7%minutes}, until chicken is cooked through and sauce is thickened.

Trim stems from @okra{12%oz} and slice into 1/2 inch rounds.

Heat ~{1%tbsp} canola oil in a large #sauté pan over high.
