After you mix the Popeyes biscuit dough, you will need to roll it out to about 1/2 inch thick before you cut it into biscuits. The biscuits will rise as they bake so this is the perfect thickness for amazing biscuits.
Once you roll out the biscuit dough, you will cut the dough into biscuit shapes using a biscuit cutter or glass. If you use a glass, it is helpful to dip the glass in a bit of flour or coat the rin in some flour so that the glass does not stick to the dough.
When you have cut biscuits from all of the dough, there will be some dough left. Don’t let it go to waste. Gather the remaining dough and roll it out to 1/2 inch again and cut biscuits from the remaining dough. Once there is no longer enough dough to cust biscuits from, pat the remaining dough into a rough biscuit shape and bake with the biscuits.
Unlike a lot of other biscuit recipes, this Popeyes biscuit recipe calls for melting butter in the bottom of the 9×13 inch baking pan. Then, once the biscuits are cut, you will place them in the pan and coat well with the butter so that the outside almost fries in the butter while the biscuits are baking. This gives them the nice crunchy texture just like the ones at Popeye’s Fried Chicken restaurants.
This recipe calls for 1 stick of butter, but if you want an even more buttery flavor, you can pour a little melted butter over the top after the biscuits are in the baking pan just before you pop them in the oven.
This sounds like a lot of process, but it really only takes about 5 minutes. Try this easy Popeye biscuit recipe and I KNOW you won’t be disappointed!

I absolutely love green chile! Being from Colorado, it’s pretty common to find green chile at Mexican restaurants. It can be eaten as a soup or it can be used to pour over the top of smothered burritos, enchiladas and more.
I like to serve my green chile wrapped in tortillas. Then I smother the tortillas with more green chile and then top with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream.
If you like, you can make up the green chile and pour it over your favorite Mexican dishes like burritos or enchiladas. You can also pour it over chicken or pork chops.

This easy Indian Fry Bread Recipe makes a delicious fry bread that can be used to make Navajo Tacos, also called Indian Tacos and a variety of other foods. We like to make the Indian tacos, but sometimes the kids just like to eat the Navajo fry bread with honey. Either way, they are delicious!
This easy Indian fry bread recipe makes a wonderfully delicious Navajo fry bread, which you can eat by itself, eat with honey as a dessert or snack or cover in taco fixings to make Navajo tacos!
Navajo tacos are an easy family dinner recipe that everyone loves. The Indian fry bread has a texture that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It makes a different kind of base for tacos, which is much more delicious than regular taco shells or tortillas.
This Navajo fry bread recipe is easy to make traditionally according to our recipe below, but if you’re in a big hurry, you can make these even faster by rolling out Grands biscuits and frying according to the recipe instead of making your own dough from scratch.
Besides being super tasty, this recipe is easy to make with ingredients you already have at home like all purpose flour, baking powder, salt, milk, and water. Don’t over-think it. The recipe is super simple. (Full recipe below)
First, you will mix the dry ingredients in a large mixing bowl. Then, stir in the water and the milk. If you do this all in one bowl, you will have fewer dishes to wash and who doesn’l’t like less dishwashing?
Once it is mixed, turn out onto a cutting board and knead several times to make a smooth dough. Again, don’t overthink it. This is an easy recipe.
Roll out the dough into approximately 5-inch circles. Make a small home in the center of each circle with your fingers. This will make them cook more evenly when you fry them.
Heat the oil in a skillet until it is about 375°. I like to use a digital laser thermometer like this one to double check the temperature. Once the oil is hot enough, fry each Indian fry bread circle, one at a time, until it puffs and bubbles. It should turn a light golden brown. Then using tongs, carefully turn it over and fry the other side.
Place a paper towel on a plate. As you remove each fry bread from the frying pan, place it on the paper towel to drain it while you fry the next one.
When you have finished frying them, you can serve them as a snack or make Indian tacos (Navajo tacos). If you serve them as a snack, you can top with things like honey, powdered sugar, cinnamon or your favorite flavor of jam or a combination of these.
My kids love to eat the Indian fry bread as a dessert or snack with honey. If there are any bubbles in the bread, they like to pour some honey inside the Navajo fry bread to make it extra sweet!
Once you make the Indian fry bread recipe, you can make fry bread tacos by topping with your favorite taco ingredients. You can really use any kind of toppings that sound good on Indian tacos. I am including a list of some of our favorite toppings here.
My husband and I like to make the Indian tacos recipe for ourselves more elaborate with a lot of different toppings. If you have picky eaters or small kids, you might want to keep it simple and include only a few things like ground beef, refried beans, or cheese. The beauty of this recipe is that it is very easy to make and it is easy to customize for each person’s tastes without causing you a lot of extra work.
In addition to the tacos, you can use the Indian fry bread to make other kinds of sandwiches and treats, so don’t be afraid to experiment! You can use the Navajo fry bread in place of bread, taco shells or tostadas.

Easy Homemade Enchiladas Recipe

I was in a rush this evening, so I thought I would use Grand biscuits, instead of making the version of the Navajo tacos fry bread you included here. I just rolled out the Grands biscuits with a rolling pin, put a small hole in the middle and followed the rest of the recipe. My family loves it!
We also had fried apples for dessert, and I crushed up some homemade (plain)granola bars on it. It was YUMMY!
