Ingredients:
- 1 lb (450 g) ground beef – lean or 80/20 for richer flavor
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon chili flakes (optional)
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (or mozzarella for extra stretch)
- 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuit dough – or homemade biscuits if preferred
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley or Italian seasoning
- Optional toppings: sliced pickles, jalapeños, or caramelized onions
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven:
Set the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper. This will prevent the biscuits from sticking and ensure even baking.
- Prepare the beef filling:
Heat olive oil or butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chopped onions and cook for about 2–3 minutes, until they become translucent. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Cook the beef:
Add the ground beef to the skillet. Break it apart using a spatula and cook until browned, about 5–7 minutes. Drain excess grease if necessary. Season with salt, black pepper, paprika, and chili flakes. Add the Worcestershire sauce for that rich, savory depth of flavor. Stir well to combine.
- Add the cheese:
Once the beef is fully cooked and seasoned, reduce the heat to low. Sprinkle in shredded cheddar cheese and stir until melted and creamy. This creates the deliciously cheesy filling that holds the sandwich together. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Prepare the biscuits:
Open the biscuit dough can and separate the biscuits. Flatten each one slightly with your hands or a rolling pin. You’ll need two biscuits for each sandwich (top and bottom).
- Assemble the sandwiches:
Place one flattened biscuit on the baking sheet. Spoon a generous amount of the cheesy beef filling (about 2 tablespoons) into the center. Place another flattened biscuit on top and pinch the edges together to seal. Repeat with the remaining biscuits and filling.
- Brush with butter:
Mix melted butter with parsley or Italian seasoning, and lightly brush the tops of each biscuit sandwich. This step gives the sandwiches a golden, shiny finish and adds a burst of flavor.
- Bake:
Place the tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15–18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and slightly crisp. Remove and allow to cool for 5 minutes before serving.
- Serve:
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce—like garlic mayo, ketchup, or spicy ranch. Add a side salad or fries for a complete meal.
