Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup tomato sauce
- 1 cup diced tomatoes, drained
- 1 cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 16-ounce can refrigerated biscuit dough
- 2 green onions, chopped for garnish
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the beef and onions in the spices.
Add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, and kidney beans to the skillet. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.
Transfer the beef and bean mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.
Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.
Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each biscuit slightly and place them on top of the cheese layer to cover the surface.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese on top. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt the cheese.
Let the bake cool slightly before garnishing with chopped green onions and serving. Enjoy!
