Ingredients

Scale

Biscuits

  • 1 can (8-count) refrigerated biscuits, not flaky

Buffalo Chicken Filling

  • 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
  • ¼ cup (68 g) buffalo sauce
  • 2 cups (280 g) rotisserie chicken, shredded
  • ¼ cup (28 g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup (28 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded
  • 1 teaspoon finely diced green onion

Toppings & Garnish

  • 3 tablespoons buffalo sauce, divided
  • 1 teaspoon finely diced green onion, for garnish
  • Blue cheese or ranch dressing, for dipping

Instructions

  1. Prepare the filling: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cream cheese and ¼ cup buffalo sauce until smooth and combined. Add in the shredded rotisserie chicken, sharp cheddar cheese, shredded mozzarella, and diced green onion. Stir until all ingredients are evenly mixed to create approximately 2 ½ cups of filling.
  2. Preheat the oven and prepare skillet: Heat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking during baking.
  3. Prepare the biscuits: Remove the biscuits from the can and place them on a clean surface. Using a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness to ensure they can be folded easily around the filling.
  4. Assemble the biscuit bombs: Evenly divide the buffalo chicken mixture among the 8 biscuits, placing about ¼ cup of filling on each flattened biscuit. Carefully pinch and seal the edges of the biscuits to fully enclose the filling, then place them seam-side down in the prepared skillet.
  5. Brush with buffalo sauce: Use approximately 2 tablespoons of buffalo sauce to brush the tops of each biscuit for added flavor and moisture. Reserve the remaining buffalo sauce for drizzling after baking.
  6. Bake: Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 24 to 26 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Garnish and serve: Remove from the oven, drizzle the remaining buffalo sauce over the biscuit bombs, and sprinkle with finely diced green onions. Serve hot with additional buffalo sauce and blue cheese or ranch dressing on the side for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra spice, add a dash of cayenne pepper or hot sauce to the filling mixture.
  • Make sure to pinch the biscuit edges tightly to prevent filling from leaking while baking.
  • Leftover bombs can be refrigerated and reheated in the oven for a crispy finish.
  • You can swap rotisserie chicken with cooked shredded chicken breast if preferred.
  • Use gluten-free biscuits if you want to make this recipe gluten-free.
