Description
Hearty french dip biscuits blend savory roast beef and melted provolone in flaky buttermilk pastry. Rich sandwich-inspired appetizers deliver comfort with minimal kitchen effort and maximum flavor satisfaction.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound of deli-sliced roast beef (superior quality)
- 8 slices of provolone cheese
- 1 can (16.3 oz/462.7 g) of refrigerated biscuits (8 individual biscuits)
- 2 tbsps of horseradish sauce (refined, adjust to taste)
- 1 packet (1 oz/28.3 g) of Au Jus Gravy mix
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400ºF and line a baking sheet with parchment paper, creating a pristine surface for baking.
- Carefully split each biscuit into halves, creating a canvas for layering. Spread horseradish sauce generously across the interior surfaces of the biscuit halves.
- Layer provolone cheese and roast beef on one half of each biscuit, creating a savory filling. Gently press the remaining biscuit halves on top, sealing the edges with a firm pinch to secure the delectable contents.
- Arrange the assembled biscuit pockets on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced for consistent heating.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, monitoring until the biscuits transform into a rich, golden-brown color, signaling their perfect crispy exterior.
- While biscuits are baking, prepare the Au Jus gravy according to the package instructions, whisking carefully to achieve a smooth, flavorful dipping sauce.
- Remove biscuits from the oven and let rest for a brief moment to allow the fillings to settle and prevent burning. Serve immediately with the warm Au Jus gravy for dipping.
Notes
- Swap canned biscuits for homemade ones to control sodium and enhance flavor complexity for health-conscious eaters.
- Use lean roast beef or turkey for a lighter protein option that reduces overall calorie content while maintaining delicious taste profile.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like sharp cheddar or Swiss to create unique flavor combinations that match individual taste preferences.
- Consider gluten-free biscuit alternatives or use lettuce wraps for individuals managing celiac disease or wheat sensitivities.
