Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 2 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 6 oz cremini mushrooms, sliced
  • 1/2 cup carrots, shredded
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup leftover beef, diced or shredded
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp rosemary
  • 1/2 tbsp thyme
  • 1 tsp oregano

  • 2 1/2 cups water (more if needed)

For Biscuit Topping:

  • 8-count refrigerated biscuits
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F. In an oven-safe skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Sauté onion, mushrooms, and carrots with salt for ~10 minutes.
  2. Stir in leftover beef, garlic powder, paprika, rosemary, thyme, and oregano. Add flour and cook for 2 minutes.
  3. Mix in beef base and coffee, then gradually stir in water to form a thick gravy. Simmer for 3–5 minutes, adjusting consistency if needed.
  4. Remove from heat. Arrange biscuits on top, spaced slightly apart. Sprinkle with green onions and cheddar.
  5. Bake for 35–45 minutes or until biscuits are golden and cooked through.
