These Cheesy Taco Pockets are a delightful twist on classic tacos, perfect for a quick and satisfying meal.
Preheat your oven to 375°F.
Always preheat your oven to ensure even cooking.
In a skillet, cook the ground beef until browned. Drain any excess fat.
Use a wooden spoon to break up the beef for even cooking.
Add the taco seasoning and salsa to the cooked beef. Stir and cook until thickened.
Simmer the mixture to let the flavors meld together.
Flatten each biscuit dough piece into a 6-inch round.
Use a rolling pin or your hands to flatten the dough evenly.
Place a spoonful of the beef mixture and some shredded cheese onto each dough round. Fold over and seal the edges.
Press the edges firmly to prevent the filling from leaking out.
Place the filled pockets on a greased baking sheet and bake for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.
Check the pockets halfway through baking to ensure even browning.
Serve warm with sour cream on the side.
Garnish with chopped cilantro for added freshness.
