Steps

  1. Pre-heat the oven according to biscuit package directions. Do not cook them yet.
  2. Prepare meat according to package directions. Over medium heat in a large skillet, brown meat until thoroughly cooked. If necessary, drain excess grease.
  3. Add taco seasoning packet to meat and stir.
  4. Open package and separate biscuits.
  5. Turn the muffin pan upside down so that the opening faces down.
  6. Lightly grease pan. Take the biscuits and place each one over the inverted openings, slightly stretching the biscuit over the edges thus "bowl" shaping them. Careful not to tear the dough or spread to thinly.
  7. Bake biscuits according to package directions, checking frequently. Due to our modification of cooking them, the biscuits may take less time to bake.

  • Great as appetizers at parties or when entertaining

Warnings

  • Be careful not to burn the biscuit bowls! If you are concerned about this or in high- altitude, decrease oven temp by 25 degrees only. Because the dough is spread more thinly than usual, cook on middle rack in oven.

Things You'll Need

  • 1 pound ground beef, ground turkey or shredded chicken
  • 1 package of pre-made biscuits (the kind that comes in the paper-foil rolls found in the refrigerated section of the grocery store)

How to Make a Club Sandwich

There may be no single, classic recipe for a club sandwich. It seems to be something that the 'Toffs' have made up for a 'Wee small hours of the morning' Snack . Many years ago this sandwich used to be served at the Grosvenor House Hotel Park Lane (UK) by the Chef Nuit, or night shift Chef.

Ingredients

  • Fresh baguette (a long, thin loaf of French bread)
  • 2 breasts of roast chicken (big slices cut on the diagonal), chilled
  • 6-8 rashers of back bacon, grilled and hot
  • Washed lettuce
  • 3-4 thinly sliced tomatoes
  • Mayonnaise
  • Butter

Steps

  1. Start with a whole baguette or more, according to how many people will be eating.
  2. Slice baguette into three slices horizontally, end to end.
  3. Toast the baguette in a Salamander grill until golden (optional). At-home chefs can use the oven, instead.
  4. Butter the base, the top of middle slice, and the bottom of the top slice.
  5. Spread the baguette base with mayonnaise.
  6. Layer on cold chicken, half of the tomatoes, and half of the lettuce.
  7. Create the second layer by adding the middle slice of the bread.
  8. Stack on the well-grilled, hot bacon.
  9. Add the rest of tomatoes and lettuce, and cover with the top slice of the bread.
  10. If necessary pin in place with fancy cocktail sticks or toothpicks, but don't go too crazy. Remember that the sandwich must it this into someone's mouth, so be sensible.
  11. Slice into serving-sized segments.

Tips

  • Feel free to vary and adjust this recipe according to your tastes.
  • In past times, sandwich loaves in the trade were classed according to their age in days. The older bread was used for toasting and croutons . These loaves were baked in tins that were about 2.5 times the length of today's sliced, square loaf and were ideal for things of this nature.
  • Instead of the mayonnaise, try substituting salad cream or cocktail sauce with just a touch of curry powder in it.
