Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 lb thinly sliced deli roast beef
- 8 slices provolone cheese
- 1 (16.3 ounces / 462 grams) can refrigerated biscuits (8-count)
Sauce and Seasoning:
- 2 tablespoons creamy horseradish sauce
- 1 (1 ounce / 28 grams) packet Au Jus Gravy mix
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper for easy cleanup and non-stick baking.
- Carefully separate each refrigerated biscuit into two delicate layers, creating thin, flaky bases for the savory sandwich.
- Generously spread a layer of zesty horseradish sauce across the inner surface of each biscuit layer to enhance the flavor profile.
- Position a slice of creamy provolone cheese and tender roast beef on the bottom half of each prepared biscuit layer.
- Gently place the corresponding top biscuit layer over the meat and cheese, then meticulously press and crimp the edges to create a secure seal.
- Arrange the assembled biscuit packets onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are evenly spaced for consistent cooking.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, watching for a golden-brown exterior that indicates perfect crispness and doneness.
- While biscuits are baking, quickly prepare the Au Jus gravy mix according to the package instructions, creating a rich dipping sauce.
- Remove biscuits from the oven, let cool for a minute, then serve immediately alongside the warm Au Jus gravy for a delightful dipping experience.
Notes
- Customize the biscuits by using gluten-free biscuit dough for those with wheat sensitivities or celiac disease.
- Experiment with different cheese varieties like sharp cheddar or Swiss for unique flavor profiles that complement the roast beef.
- Prep biscuits ahead of time and refrigerate before baking to help them maintain their shape and create a flakier texture.
- Reduce sodium by using low-sodium roast beef and selecting a reduced-sodium Au Jus gravy mix for a heart-healthier option.
