Cuisine: Pepper and Cheddar Biscuits

I've been playing around with biscuit recipes. I LOVE them in all there forms. This recipe I created to go alongside pork chops I was making. The chops were ok. These were excellent. I had one today with chicken salad and curtido. Mmm... A mouth-watering lunch. Hope you enjoy and let me know what you think!

Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup milk
  • 1 jalapeno, minced
  • 1/2 pasilla pepper, minced
  • 1/3 cup fried dried garlic (found in Asian grocery stores)
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 2 1/4 cup Bisquick
Directions
In a small bowl, mix together milk, fried dried garlic, jalapeno, and pasilla pepper and set aside for 15 minutes. Add cheddar cheese to milk mixture and let sit for 15 minutes.

In a separate bowl, measure out Bisquick. Gently fold milk and cheese mixture into Bisquick. Mixture should separate from the sides of the bowl and be slightly sticky. If the batter is too sticky, add a little more Bisquick and gently work in. If the batter is too tough, add a little more milk and gently work in.

Heat oven to 425 degrees.

Grease a small glass baking dish. Create 8 roughly equal balls and place them in greased baking dish. It is ok if they lightly touch. Bake for 15 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting toothpick into center of a biscuit. If not done, check every 2 minutes. Biscuits should be golden brown with small specks of dark brown on top.

Enjoy with butter. Mmm....Butter.
