Ingredients
Scale
Filling
- 1 cup shredded chicken
- ¼ cup ranch dressing
- 4 oz cream cheese
- ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ cup Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Wings Sauce
- 2 tablespoons diced jalapeños (optional)
Dough & Topping
- 16 refrigerator biscuits (from 2 containers, 10 biscuits each, use 16 total)
- ¼ cup butter, melted
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 2 tablespoons shredded parmesan cheese
- ½ teaspoon dried parsley
Instructions
- Prepare the filling: In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, ranch dressing, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Wings Sauce, and diced jalapeños (if using). Mix until all ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Stuff the biscuits: Flatten each biscuit dough piece slightly. Place a spoonful of the chicken filling in the center of each biscuit and carefully wrap the dough around the filling, sealing it completely to form a ball.
- Prepare topping mixture: In a small bowl, combine the melted butter and garlic powder.
- Brush and coat: Place the stuffed biscuit balls on a baking sheet. Brush the tops with the melted butter and garlic powder mixture, then sprinkle with shredded parmesan cheese and dried parsley for added flavor and color.
- Bake the bombs: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake the stuffed biscuit balls for 25-30 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.
- Alternatively, air fry: Place the stuffed biscuits directly on the air fryer rack. Air fry at 350°F for 5-6 minutes, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Serve: Remove from oven or air fryer, let cool slightly, and serve warm as a flavorful appetizer or snack.
Notes
- Feel free to adjust the amount of buffalo sauce for desired heat level.
- Diced jalapeños are optional but add a nice extra kick.
- Use refrigerated biscuit dough for the easiest preparation, but homemade biscuit dough can be used for a fresher taste.
- Leftover Chicken Bombs can be reheated in an oven or air fryer to maintain crispiness.
- Can be served with extra ranch or blue cheese dressing for dipping.
