What You Need To Make This French Dip Biscuits Recipe?
Biscuits: Although our recipe recommends using a refrigerated biscuit you can explore brands or even try making homemade biscuits if you’re feeling adventurous. The fluffier the biscuit the more enjoyable the experience.
Deli Roast Beef: The quality of the roast beef is crucial, for this recipe. Choose sliced high-quality roast beef from the deli counter of pre-packaged options. This ensures a flavorful result.
Horseradish Sauce: Our biscuits get their spicy kick from this sauce. Depending on your taste preferences feel free to adjust the amount. If you prefer mild heat go easy on it. However, if you enjoy a zing don’t hesitate to be generous!
Provolone Cheese: Freshly sliced provolone from the deli counter melts better and provides a texture. However, if you want to switch things up Swiss or Gouda could be alternatives.
Au Jus Gravy Mix: This mix adds flavor to our dipping sauce. Enhances the taste profile. While there are brands try selecting one with fewer additives and more natural ingredients, for an optimal flavor experience.
Steps To Make French Dip Biscuits:
Step 1: Start by getting that oven hot and ready! Preheat it to 400ºF and while it’s getting warm, line a baking sheet with some parchment paper. This ensures no sticking and an easy cleanup.
Step 2: Now, for the fun part. Gently separate each biscuit into two halves. Slather a generous amount of horseradish sauce on each layer. The spice will give it that kick!
Step 3: On half of those saucy biscuit layers, place a slice of that mouth-watering provolone and some deli roast beef. Once that’s done, top it off with the other biscuit half. Make sure to pinch those edges tightly to keep all that goodness inside.
Step 4: Pop them onto your prepared baking sheet and bake them until they’re a beautiful golden hue. Usually, 12 to 15 minutes does the trick.
Step 5: While those beauties are baking, whip up the Au Jus Gravy mix by following the package’s instructions. It’ll be the perfect dip for your biscuits.
Tip:
For an added burst of flavor, you might want to think about toasting the biscuit halves in a pan with a hint of butter before putting everything together. This not only gives the biscuits a crunchy outer layer but also enhances the savory fillings with its buttery undertones taking the overall taste of the French Dip Biscuits to new heights!
