Easy One-Pan BBQ Chicken Loaded Biscuit Skillet

In this skillet dish, chicken is cooked until juicy and combined with barbecue sauce, topped with fluffy biscuits that bake to golden perfection. The whole dish is finished with melted cheese, making it a comforting meal that serves about 4 people.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cubed
1 cup barbecue sauce, divided
1 can (16 oz) refrigerated biscuit dough
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup diced red onion
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Chopped green onions for garnish (optional)

Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Cook the Chicken: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add cubed chicken, seasoning with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until the chicken is browned and cooked through, about 5-7 minutes.
Add BBQ Sauce: Pour 3/4 cup of barbecue sauce over the cooked chicken and stir to coat evenly. Let it simmer for another 2-3 minutes.
Prepare Biscuits: Remove the biscuit dough from the can and cut each biscuit into quarters. Arrange the biscuit pieces on top of the chicken and barbecue sauce mixture in the skillet.

Bake: Drizzle the remaining barbecue sauce over the biscuit pieces and sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. Transfer the skillet to the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and cooked through.
Serve: Remove the skillet from the oven and garnish with chopped green onions, if desired. Serve hot for a delicious and easy meal.
