A comforting dish that combines tender chicken with a rich marinara sauce and cheesy biscuit topping, bringing family and friends together.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (or chicken thighs)
- 1 box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese (preferably freshly grated)
- 1/2 cup chopped green onions
- 1 cup marinara sauce (your favorite variety)
- 1/2 cup melted butter

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spray a 9×13-inch baking dish with non-stick cooking spray.
- In a skillet, sauté the chicken breasts over medium heat for about 8 minutes, or until they are fully cooked. Let them rest, then slice or chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Mix the Cheddar Bay Biscuit mix with water, shredded cheddar cheese, and green onions in a medium bowl until well combined.
- Spread the marinara sauce evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
- Place the cooked chicken pieces evenly over the marinara sauce.
- Spoon the biscuit batter over the chicken, spreading it to cover each piece well.
- Bake uncovered for 25 minutes or until the biscuit topping is golden brown and fully cooked.
- In a small bowl, combine the melted butter with the seasoning packet. Brush this mixture over the hot biscuit topping.
- Let the bake rest for 5–10 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra green onions or fresh parsley if desired.
