Ingredients
1 can refrigerated biscuit dough
1 cup cooked chicken, shredded
1 cup mixed vegetables (peas, carrots, corn)
1 cup milk or heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Lightly grease a muffin tin with butter or oil.
Flatten each biscuit and press it into the muffin cups to form a base.
Bake for 8–10 minutes until slightly golden but not fully cooked.
How to Make
Melt butter in a pan over medium heat.
Add flour and stir continuously for 1–2 minutes to form a roux.
Gradually pour in milk or cream while whisking to avoid lumps.
Cook until the sauce thickens and becomes smooth and creamy.
Add shredded chicken, mixed vegetables, and seasonings.
Stir well and let it simmer for a few minutes.
Remove the biscuit cups from the oven and fill them with the mixture.
Sprinkle shredded cheese on top.
Return to the oven and bake for 10–15 minutes until golden and bubbly.
Variations
Substitute chicken with ground beef or turkey for a different flavor.
Add mushrooms, spinach, or bell peppers for extra nutrition.
Make it spicy by adding chili flakes or hot sauce.
Use puff pastry instead of biscuit dough for a flakier texture.
Experiment with cheeses like parmesan, gouda, or pepper jack.
Tips
Do not overfill the cups to prevent spilling during baking.
Pre-baking the biscuit base helps keep it from becoming soggy.
Use rotisserie chicken for convenience and extra flavor.
Allow the cups to cool slightly before removing from the tray.
Serve warm for the best taste and texture.
