Chicken Pizza Biscuits
I received this recipe from a good friend in the states, sounds wonderful and is on my to cook list. Quantities are not listed, this is a make with what you have type recipe. When I make this I will narrow down the measurements. Link to the shortcut is listed in the Recipe Notes section.
Ingredients
- chicken, see Step 2
- biscuits, see Step 3
- Mozzarella Cheese, shredded
- pizza sauce, OR make from a shortcut
- butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 180 C. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
- Chicken, several options. 1. Use chicken meat from a whole slow cooked thicken (most economical), white meat or dark, up to you, and shred the meat you need. 2. Cook and shred several chicken breasts, seasoned with salt, pepper, and Italian seasoning. 3. Buy a rotisserie chicken or make one yourself.
- For the biscuits, several options. 1. Use your favorite rolled biscuit recipe (most economical). 2. If you find, say, Pillsbury Grands biscuits in a tube, use those if you like. Then take each biscuit, either your rolled biscuits that you have cut into biscuits or those from a tube, and on a lightly floured surface, pat out biscuit each with your fingers to make a larger, thinner biscuit, like 5-6 inches in diameter.
- Take the patted out biscuit and place some shredded chicken in the center of the biscuit, add shredded cheese on top of the chicken. Fold the sides of the biscuit to cover the filling and lightly pinch together, place biscuit on the baking sheet. When the sheet is full, allow room between the biscuits, brush with melted butter and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Repeat this if you have to cook in batches.
- Serve with pizza sauce for dipping.
Notes
This is a snack or meal, great while watching a sports game on TV. If you make the biscuits and pizza sauce yourself, this is very inexpensive. Chicken is inexpensive, think cooking a whole chicken in your slow cooker, using some meat for this recipe, and then you have more meat for another 1 or 2 recipes. The cheese would not be that much as not a lot is used.
When I prepare this I will edit the recipe, pricing, and add photos.
