Expert Tips

When the pressed-out biscuits are removed from the work surface, they tend to shrink back to a smaller size. Once they're on the cookie sheet, press them back to the 5 1/2-inch round.

This was pretty yummy, although we ate it more like a tostada, the biscuits did not really need to cook for 10 minutes, so they did not really want to fold. Also could not find refrigerated taco sauce with chicken, so I roasted a couple of chicken breasts with spices, and shredded them and added them to a jar of Taco bell mild taco sauce. On the whole a delish dinner, would definately make it again!
