Looking for a savory twist on a classic favorite? These French Dip Biscuits are the perfect blend of convenience and flavor, ideal for any mealtime or snack. With just a few simple ingredients and easy steps, you can whip up a batch of these delectable biscuits that will have everyone asking for seconds.

Ingredients:

1 (16.3-oz) can refrigerated biscuits (8-count)

1 lb thinly sliced deli roast beef

2 Tbsp creamy horseradish sauce (adjust to taste)

8 slices provolone cheese

1 (1-oz) packet Au Jus Gravy mix

Directions:

Preparation: Preheat your oven to 400ºF (200ºC) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.

Assemble Biscuits:

Separate each biscuit into two layers, doubling your biscuit count.

Spread a generous layer of creamy horseradish sauce on each biscuit layer.

Layering:

On half of the biscuit layers, place a slice of provolone cheese followed by a portion of thinly sliced roast beef.

Complete the Biscuits:

Top each with the remaining biscuit layers, pinching the edges together to seal in the delicious fillings.

Bake to Perfection:

Arrange the prepared biscuits on the baking sheet and bake for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they turn a delightful golden brown.

Prepare Au Jus Gravy:

While the biscuits bake, follow the package directions to prepare the Au Jus Gravy mix, ensuring a rich and flavorful dipping sauce.

Serving Tips:

Fresh and Hot: Serve the French Dip Biscuits fresh out of the oven for the best flavor and texture. The warm, melty cheese and savory roast beef are at their peak when enjoyed immediately.

Dipping Sauce: Pair each biscuit with a small bowl of prepared Au Jus Gravy for dipping. This enhances the flavors and adds a delightful juiciness to every bite.

Garnish Suggestions: For a touch of freshness, consider garnishing your serving platter with fresh herbs like parsley or chives. These add a pop of color and complement the rich flavors of the biscuits.

Accompaniments: Serve alongside a crisp green salad, coleslaw, or a side of roasted vegetables to round out the meal. The biscuits are versatile enough to be enjoyed as part of a larger spread or on their own.

Storage Tips:

Refrigeration: If you have leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They can be kept for up to 2-3 days.

Reheating: To reheat, place the biscuits on a baking sheet and warm them in a preheated oven at 350ºF (175ºC) for about 5-7 minutes, or until heated through. This helps maintain their texture and ensures they taste as good as freshly baked.

Freezing: While these biscuits are best enjoyed fresh, you can freeze them for up to 1 month. Wrap each biscuit individually in plastic wrap and place them in a freezer-safe container or bag. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.

Avoid Microwaving: To preserve their texture, avoid microwaving the biscuits for reheating. The oven method ensures they remain crispy on the outside and warm and gooey on the inside.
