Step-by-Step Cooking Instructions

Step 3: Stuff the Biscuits

Place a spoonful of chicken mixture in the center of each biscuit. Carefully fold the dough around the filling and pinch to seal.

Step 4: Bake Until Golden

Arrange the stuffed biscuits seam-side down on a lined baking sheet and bake until puffed and golden brown.

Step 5: Finish and Serve

Brush with melted butter after baking if desired. Serve warm for the best texture and flavor.
