Red Lobster Rolls
Soft, cheesy, and flavorful with a hint of garlic and parsley, these warm biscuits are perfect for sharing as an appetizer or side dish with family and friends.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Combine Bisquick flour, milk, shredded Cheddar cheese, melted butter, garlic, and parsley with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms, then beat for 30 seconds.
- Drop dough by heaping tablespoonfuls onto a greased iron skillet.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 450°F for 8 to 10 minutes until golden brown.
- Mix melted butter, garlic, and parsley together and brush on warm rolls before serving.
Tips & Substitutions
For the best texture, be careful not to overmix the dough after combining the ingredients; just mix until combined. If you don't have Bisquick, you can substitute it with a homemade mix of 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. A sprinkle of paprika can add a nice flavor twist to the rolls.
Serving Suggestions
These rolls are perfect served warm as an appetizer or alongside a bowl of clam chowder. Consider pairing them with a fresh salad or a side of coleslaw for a delightful meal. They also make a great accompaniment to dishes like Baked Ham And Cheesewich, enhancing the overall dining experience.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover rolls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. For longer storage, freeze them in a freezer-safe bag. To reheat, simply place them in a preheated oven at 350°F for about 5-7 minutes until warmed through and crisped up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use a different type of cheese?
Yes, you can substitute shredded mozzarella or pepper jack cheese for a different flavor profile. Just make sure the cheese melts well to maintain the roll's texture.
Can I make the dough ahead of time?
While it's best to bake the rolls fresh, you can prepare the dough and store it in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour before baking. Just give it a quick stir before dropping onto the skillet.
What can I add to the rolls for extra flavor?
Consider adding cooked bacon bits or chopped green onions to the dough for an extra burst of flavor. Herbs like thyme or dill can also enhance the taste, making them perfect for various occasions.
