Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 can refrigerated biscuit dough (8 biscuits)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
Directions
Prepare the Filling
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain excess fat. Add garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Stir in mozzarella cheese until melted and well combined. Remove from heat and set aside.
Assemble the Bombs
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Flatten each biscuit and place a spoonful of the beef mixture in the center. Sprinkle with a bit of Parmesan cheese. Fold the biscuit around the filling, pinching the edges to seal. Place seam-side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Bake and Serve
Brush the tops of the bombs with melted butter and sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese and parsley. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until golden brown. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
- For a crispy texture, you can brush the biscuits with egg wash before baking. Learn how to make an egg wash here.
- Be sure to seal the edges of the biscuits well to prevent the filling from leaking out during baking.
- If you prefer, you can use ground turkey as a leaner alternative.
Variations
- Spicy Version: Add chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes to the beef mixture for a kick.
- BBQ Twist: Mix some BBQ sauce into the beef for a Smokey flavor.
- Vegetarian Option: Use mushrooms and bell peppers instead of beef.
