Ingredients
Scale
- For the Beef Filling:
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup frozen mixed vegetables
- 1 can (10.5 oz) cream of mushroom soup
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- For the Biscuit Topping:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 3/4 cup milk
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large skillet over medium heat, brown the ground beef with the diced onion and minced garlic until the beef is no longer pink, about 5-7 minutes.
- Stir in the frozen mixed vegetables, cream of mushroom soup, beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 5 minutes until heated through.
- Transfer the beef mixture to a greased 9×13 inch baking dish.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt for the biscuit topping.
- Cut in the cold butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the cheddar cheese.
- Add the milk gradually, mixing until just combined.
- Drop spoonfuls of the biscuit dough over the beef mixture, covering it evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.
