Ingredients

Scale

Biscuits

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

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

Topping & 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 well combined. Add shredded rotisserie chicken, sharp cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and 1 teaspoon finely diced green onion. Stir thoroughly to combine into a creamy, flavorful filling measuring about 2 ½ cups.
  2. Preheat the oven and prepare skillet: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Spray a 10-inch oven-safe skillet with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
  3. Prepare the biscuits: Remove the refrigerated biscuits from the can and place them on a clean work surface. Using a rolling pin, flatten each biscuit to about ⅛-inch thickness to allow for easy wrapping of the filling.
  4. Assemble the bombs: Divide the buffalo chicken mixture evenly, about ¼ cup per biscuit. Place the filling in the center of each flattened biscuit, then pinch the edges together to seal the filling inside completely. Place the sealed biscuit bombs seam-side down in the prepared skillet.
  5. Brush with buffalo sauce: Use about 2 tablespoons of the reserved buffalo sauce to brush the tops of each biscuit bomb evenly. Reserve the remaining buffalo sauce for drizzling after baking.
  6. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 24-26 minutes, or until the biscuit bombs are golden brown and cooked through.
  7. Garnish and serve: Once baked, drizzle the reserved buffalo sauce over the tops and garnish with finely diced green onions. Serve warm with extra buffalo sauce and your choice of blue cheese or ranch dressing for dipping.

Notes

  • Using room temperature cream cheese ensures a creamy and smooth filling.
  • Shredded rotisserie chicken is a convenient, flavorful choice, but you can use cooked chicken breast or thighs as well.
  • If you prefer more heat, add extra buffalo sauce to the filling or brush more on top before baking.
  • The biscuit type should be the flaky refrigerated kind for best texture.
  • Leftover biscuit bombs can be reheated in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes.
  • For a milder flavor, substitute buffalo sauce with a milder hot sauce or BBQ sauce.
