- Prep Time 5 min
- Total 30 min
- Ingredients 13
- Servings 16
Ingredients
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- 1/2 lb ground pork
- 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 cup Progresso™ bread crumbs plain
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 egg, beaten
- 2 cans (16.3 oz) refrigerated Pillsbury™ Grands!™ Southern Homestyle Buttermilk Biscuits (8 Count)
- 9 bocconcini (small fresh mozzarella cheese balls)
- Oil
- 1 jar (24 oz) tomato sauce
- Arugula leaves
- Skewers, if desired
Instructions
-
Step1Heat oven to 350°F. Place cooking parchment paper on large cookie sheet.
-
Step2In large bowl, mix beef, pork, garlic, Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, parsley, egg, and salt and pepper to taste. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls. (Spray or rub hands with oil periodically; meat forms easily into balls without sticking to your hands!)
-
Step3Separate dough into 16 biscuits; using 2-inch round cutter, cut out “slider” size biscuits (save scraps for another use). Place on cookie sheet. Bake 5 to 10 minutes or until golden and fluffy.
-
Step4Cut bocconcini into thirds.
-
Step5Heat 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat; swirl oil in skillet. Cook meatballs in oil in batches until golden. Return all meatballs to skillet; pour tomato sauce over meatballs. Simmer 15 to 20 minutes or until hot and cooked through. Top each with mozzarella slice; cook until melted.
-
Step6To build sliders, cut each biscuit in half; drop a bit of sauce on bottom layer, top with a few arugula leaves, meatballs, then biscuit top. Secure each with skewer.
