Anleitungen
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with cooking spray or butter.
- In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium heat, breaking it apart with a spoon. Once browned and fully cooked, drain any excess fat.
- Add the chopped onion to the skillet with the beef. Cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Stir in the tomato sauce, ketchup, brown sugar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and red pepper flakes (if using). Simmer for 5-7 minutes until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- While the sauce is simmering, open the biscuit dough and cut each biscuit into quarters.
- Spread the beef and sauce mixture evenly in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with the quartered biscuit dough.
- Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until the biscuit topping is golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Let the casserole cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy!
Notizen
Feel free to swap ground beef for ground turkey, chicken, or even a plant-based alternative for a lighter or vegetarian version.
You can use different types of cheese such as mozzarella or Monterey Jack for a different flavor profile.
The casserole can be prepared in advance and refrigerated before baking—just let it come to room temperature before baking.
If you prefer a bit of spice, increase the red pepper flakes or add a dash of hot sauce to the sauce mixture.
