📝 Instructions

10 steps
1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish and set aside.

2

In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until fully browned, about 7-8 minutes. Drain off any excess grease.

3

Stir in the taco seasoning and salsa, mixing well to coat the beef. Reduce the heat to medium-low and let simmer for 2-3 minutes.

4

Add the black beans and frozen corn to the skillet, stirring until evenly combined. Remove the skillet from heat and set aside.

5

Open the can of refrigerated biscuit dough. Cut each biscuit into quarters, then gently toss the biscuit pieces into the ground beef mixture until evenly distributed.

6

Spoon the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out into an even layer.

7

Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top.

8

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked through and the cheese is melted and bubbly.

9

Remove from the oven and let cool for 5-10 minutes. Garnish with chopped green onions and fresh cilantro, if desired.

Serve warm and enjoy your Mexican Fiesta Biscuit Bake!
