📝 Instructions

13 steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch casserole dish with cooking spray or oil.

2. Cut the refrigerated biscuit dough into quarters and set aside.

3. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until no longer pink, breaking it up into crumbles as it cooks. Drain any excess grease.

4. Stir in the taco seasoning mix and 1/4 cup of water, cooking for 2-3 minutes until the beef is fully coated and the water is mostly absorbed.

5. Add the diced tomatoes with green chiles (do not drain) to the skillet and stir to combine. Reduce heat to low and let it simmer for 3-4 minutes.

6. Remove the skillet from heat and stir in the sour cream until fully incorporated.

7. Spread half of the cut biscuit dough pieces evenly across the bottom of the prepared casserole dish.

8. Pour the beef mixture over the biscuit pieces, spreading it out into an even layer.

9. Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the beef mixture.

10. Top with the remaining biscuit dough pieces, spreading them out evenly.

11. Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheese on top, followed by the chopped green onions and optional sliced jalapeños for added heat.

12. Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

13. Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
