  • 2 tbsp celery (finely chopped)

  • 2 tbsp red onion (finely chopped)

  • 2 green onions (sliced)

  • Salt & black pepper to taste

👩‍🍳 Step-by-Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Biscuit Cups

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tray.

  2. Flatten each individual biscuit gently with your hands or a rolling pin.

  3. Press the flattened biscuits into the muffin cups, molding them against the bottom and sides to create small pastry bowls.

Step 2: Bake

  1. Bake for 10–12 minutes until the biscuit cups are beautifully golden brown and fluffy.

  2. Remove from the oven and let them cool slightly in the pan before filling.

Step 3: Make the Filling

  1. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, mayonnaise, sour cream, finely chopped celery, red onion, and sliced green onions.

  2. Mix thoroughly until the filling is creamy and smooth.

  3. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

Step 4: Assemble

  1. Spoon a generous amount of the creamy chicken mixture into each baked biscuit cup.

  2. Garnish with a few extra sliced green onions on top for a pop of color.

Step 5: Serve

  • Serve these fresh and warm, or chill the filling ahead of time for a cool, refreshing crunch!

💡 Top Tips for Success

  • Time Saver: Use shredded rotisserie chicken to cut down on prep time and add extra savory flavor!

  • Stay Crisp: To keep the biscuit cups perfectly flaky and crisp, spoon the filling into the cups just before you serve them.

  • Cheesy Twist: Stir a handful of finely shredded cheddar or mozzarella cheese into the chicken mixture for an extra layer of richness.
