Swey’s Kitchen for the Cooking Collegiette: Red Lobster Inspired Biscuits

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at VCU chapter.

Looking for delicious snack that only takes less than a half hour to make? Are you craving something simple, not too filling, and perfect to go with any meal? If so, these tasty cheddar biscuits inspired by Red Lobster are the treat for you! I threw this recipe together for my friends on a dreary, snowy day and they scarfed down all 14 biscuits in just 7 minutes!
 

Ingredients:
•   2 cups buttermilk biscuit mix (I use Bisquick)
•   1 cup grated cheddar cheese
•   1/2 tsp. garlic powder
•   2/3 cup milk
•   2 Tbsp. butter, melted
•   2 tsp. dried oregano
•   1/4 tsp. garlic salt

Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  Place foil on a baking tray and spray it with cooking spray
  2. In a large bowl, mix together biscuit mix, cheese and garlic powder.  Add in milk, and stir until well mixed.  (the dough will get very sticky!)
  3. With a spoon or with your fingers, shape the dough into biscuit-sized clumps, and drop onto the baking sheet. 
  4. Bake for 10-13 minutes, or until biscuits begin to brown slightly around the edges.
  5. While the biscuits bake, prepare the warm butter mixture by mixing together the melted butter, oregano and garlic salt in a small bowl. 
  6. As soon as the biscuits are removed from the oven, brush the biscuits (while they are still on the baking sheet) with the mixture until they are well-coated.

Serve warm!

(This recipe usually makes about 15 biscuits for me.)
