Spicy Southern Chicken And Tuna Biscuit Recipe

Name: Spicy Southern Chicken And Tuna Biscuit
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 2 (16.3 ounce) cans refrigerated biscuit dough (such as Pillsbury(R)); 2 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves; 3 (5 ounce) cans tuna (such as Chicken of the Sea(R)), drained; 1/4 cup mayonnaise (such as Best Foods(R)); 1/8 teaspoon whole grain mustard; 1 teaspoon ground white pepper; 1 teaspoon cayenne pepper; 1/2 teaspoon paprika; 1/8 teaspoon ground cumin; 1 head lettuce, leaves rinsed and dried

1
Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
2
Place biscuit dough on a baking sheet, about 1 to 2 inches apart. Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 11 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven and allow the biscuits to cool.
3
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and cook the chicken breasts until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 30 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove the chicken from the skillet and dice into 1/2 inch cubes.
4
Mix tuna, mayonnaise, and mustard in a bowl until combined. Stir in white pepper, cayenne pepper, paprika, and cumin. Reserve 1/4 of the tuna mixture in a separate bowl. Combine the remaining 3/4 portion of the tuna mixture with the chicken. Split each biscuit in half and place over a bed of lettuce leaves. Divide chicken and tuna mixture on top of each biscuit half. Use the remaining 1/4 portion of the tuna mixture as a garnish on the lettuce leaves.
