Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (16.3 oz) Refrigerated Grands biscuits
- 2 cans (5 oz each) Canned tuna, drained
- 0.333 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 can (4 oz) Diced green chilies
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Open the can of Grands biscuits and separate the dough into 8 pieces. Place them on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them apart evenly.
Flatten each biscuit slightly with your hands or the bottom of a glass to make a larger, thinner round. Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the drained tuna, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, diced green chilies, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.
Spoon a generous portion of the tuna mixture onto the center of each flattened biscuit round, spreading it out slightly but leaving a small border around the edges.
Fold the edges of the biscuit dough up slightly around the tuna mixture to create a rim, ensuring the filling stays in place.
Brush the melted butter over the edges of the biscuits to give them a golden, flaky finish while baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy your Grands Tuna and Green Chile Melts warm!
