How To Make Chicken Alfredo Cups

Ingredients Needed

• Jumbo flaky biscuits
• Cooked or grilled chicken, diced
• Alfredo sauce (homemade or store-bought)
• Mozzarella cheese slices

Step-By-Step Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F and spray your muffin tin with nonstick spray.
2. Split each jumbo flaky biscuit into two circle halves. Keep them cold until ready to use.
3. Press one half into each muffin cavity, covering the bottom and sides.
4. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of Alfredo sauce into the base.
5. Add diced chicken on top of the sauce.
6. Drizzle another spoonful of Alfredo sauce over the chicken.
7. Place a slice of mozzarella cheese over the filling to cover the top.
8. Bake for 12–16 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and fully cooked.
9. Let them cool for 5–10 minutes before removing and serving.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use regular size biscuits instead of jumbo?
Yes, but keep in mind that smaller biscuits are harder to split evenly. You’ll likely need more dough to cover each muffin cavity, so using jumbo flaky biscuits is best.

What’s the difference between fluffy, buttermilk, and homestyle jumbo biscuits?
Fluffy biscuits rise higher and create a lighter crust. Buttermilk biscuits have a tangy flavor. Homestyle biscuits are denser and richer. For this recipe, flaky jumbo biscuits are recommended because they split easily into layers.

Can I use store-bought Alfredo sauce?
Absolutely! Store-bought Alfredo works well and saves time. If you prefer, you can also use homemade sauce for a fresher, more customizable flavor.

Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes. Bake as directed, let them cool, and refrigerate up to 3 days. Reheat in the microwave for 30–60 seconds or warm in the oven at 300°F until heated through.

Helpful Tips for Success

• Keep the biscuits cold – Warm dough is sticky and harder to handle. Using them straight from the fridge makes assembly much easier.
• Use leftover chicken – Rotisserie chicken, grilled chicken, or even diced baked chicken works perfectly.
• Cheese variations – Try provolone, Parmesan, or even a blend of Italian cheeses for a slightly different flavor.
• Serving idea – Pair with a side salad or roasted veggies to make it a complete meal.
