Onion-Beef Muffin Cups Recipe
  • Prep: 25 min. Bake: 15 min.
  • Yield: 4 Servings
25 15 40

Ingredients

  • 3 medium onions, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 cup butter, cubed
  • 1 beef top sirloin steak (1-inch thick and 6 ounces), cut into 1/8-inch slices
  • 1 teaspoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 1 tube (16.3 ounces) large refrigerated flaky biscuits
  • 3/4 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
  • 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese, divided

Directions

  • In a large skillet, cook onions in butter over medium heat for 10-12 minutes or until very tender. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, cook steak for 2-3 minutes or until no longer pink.
  • Return onions to pan. Stir in the flour, brown sugar and salt until blended; gradually add broth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 4-6 minutes or until thickened.
  • Separate biscuits; split each horizontally into three portions. Press onto the bottom and up the sides of eight ungreased muffin cups, overlapping the sides and tops. Fill each with about 2 tablespoons beef mixture.
  • Combine mozzarella cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese; sprinkle over filling. Fold dough over completely to enclose filling. Sprinkle with remaining Parmesan cheese.
  • Bake at 375° for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. Let stand for 2 minutes before removing from pan. Serve warm. Yield: 4 servings.

I've made this recipe many times. My whole family LOVES it. The kids even ask to have it for dinner. I dice the onions a little smaller, but other than that I follow the recipe exactly.
