Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 0.5 cup Yellow onion (diced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 8 ounces Tomato sauce
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 can Refrigerated biscuit dough (8-count can)
- 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef and diced onion until the beef is browned and the onion is translucent, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Stir in the tomato sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Reduce the heat to low and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin lightly with non-stick cooking spray.
Separate the biscuit dough into eight biscuits. Flatten each biscuit dough round with your hands and press it into the bottom and sides of a muffin cup, creating a well in the center.
Spoon an equal amount of the meat mixture into each biscuit cup, filling them to just below the edges of the dough.
Top each filled biscuit cup with a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the edges of the biscuit cups are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
Remove the biscuit cups from the oven and let them cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes.
Carefully remove the biscuit cups from the tin using a small spatula or butter knife.
Garnish with fresh parsley if desired, and serve warm.
