Ingredients
  

2 cups cooked chicken, shredded

1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1/2 cup cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1 tablespoon garlic powder

1 tablespoon onion powder

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

2 cans refrigerated biscuit dough (preferably flaky layers)

1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped (optional, for garnish)

1 large egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent sticking and ensure easy cleanup.

    Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken, sharp cheddar cheese, softened cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until you achieve a creamy and uniform consistency.

      Prepare the Biscuit Dough: Carefully open the cans of biscuit dough. Taking one biscuit at a time, use your hands or a rolling pin to gently flatten it into a circle approximately 4 inches in diameter.

        Fill the Dough: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken mixture into the center of each flattened biscuit. Be mindful not to overfill, as it may cause the bombs to burst open during baking.

          Seal the Bombs: Bring the edges of the biscuit dough up over the filling, pinching them together securely to prevent any leakage. Once sealed, roll the biscuit gently in your hands to form a neat ball.

            Arrange on Baking Sheet: Place the sealed biscuit bombs seam side down on the prepared baking sheet, ensuring they are spaced out to allow for even baking.

              Apply Egg Wash: Using a pastry brush, apply a light coat of the beaten egg on top of each biscuit bomb. This will create a beautiful golden-brown finish once baked.

                Bake the Biscuit Bombs: Transfer the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 15-18 minutes, or until the tops are golden brown and the biscuits are cooked through.

                  Garnish and Enjoy: After baking, remove the bombs from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes. If desired, sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley for a vibrant touch. Serve warm for a delightful breakfast or brunch dish!
