Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup diced green chilies (mild or hot, depending on preference)

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

½ cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed

¾ cup whole milk

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 teaspoon cumin

Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)

Sour cream or Greek yogurt (for serving)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    Make the Biscuit Dough: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cumin. Add the cold, cubed butter to the flour mixture. Using a pastry cutter or your fingertips, work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

      Add Liquid Ingredients: Pour in the milk and gently mix until just combined. Do not over-mix. If the dough is too sticky, add an extra tablespoon of flour.

        Incorporate Chicken and Chilies: Gently fold in the shredded chicken, diced green chilies, and cheddar cheese until evenly distributed throughout the dough.

          Shape the Biscuit Bites: Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and pat it into a 1-inch thick rectangle. Using a biscuit cutter or a knife, cut out bite-sized pieces (about 1-inch squares or circles). Place the biscuit bites onto the prepared baking sheet.

            Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown on top and risen.

              Garnish and Serve: Once baked, remove the biscuit bites from the oven and let them cool slightly. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve warm with a side of sour cream or Greek yogurt for dipping.
