Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 1 yellow onion, diced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon chili powder
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 cup tomato sauce
• 1 cup diced tomatoes, drained
• 1 cup kidney beans, drained and rinsed
• 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 16-ounce can refrigerated biscuit dough
• 2 green onions, chopped for garnish

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

Step 2

In a large skillet, cook the ground beef over medium-high heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Drain any excess grease.

Step 3

Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the skillet. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

Step 4

Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the beef and onions in the spices.

Step 5

Add the tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, and kidney beans to the skillet. Stir to combine and let the mixture simmer for about 5 minutes.

Step 6

Transfer the beef and bean mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly.

Step 7

Sprinkle 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese over the beef mixture.

Step 8

Separate the biscuit dough into individual pieces. Flatten each biscuit slightly and place them on top of the cheese layer to cover the surface.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.

Step 10

Remove the dish from the oven and sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese on top. Return to the oven for an additional 5 minutes to melt the cheese.

Step 11

Let the bake cool slightly before garnishing with chopped green onions and serving. Enjoy!
