How To Make Cheesecake Factory Chicken and Biscuits

Boneless skinless chicken breasts seasoned with salt, black pepper, garlic, and onion powder.

Step One: Season the boneless skinless chicken breasts with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

Step Two: In a large skillet, melt butter over medium heat and cook the chicken until golden and fully cooked. Remove from skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, whisk together butter and flour to form a roux. Slowly add chicken broth and heavy cream, stirring until smooth and thickened.

Step Three: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, additional salt, and pepper to taste. Let it melt into a creamy, rich sauce. Return the cooked chicken to the skillet and coat with the cheesy, creamy sauce.

Step Four: In a mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, butter, and milk. Mix until just combined, then form biscuits on a baking sheet. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C) and bake biscuits for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown.

Step Five: Serve the creamy chicken over warm biscuits, spooning extra sauce on top for ultimate comfort food.

Cheesecake Factory Chicken and Biscuits Recipe Tips

  • Season Well: Don’t skimp on salt, pepper, and spices; they make the sauce pop.
  • Use Cold Butter for Biscuits: This ensures flaky, tender layers.
  • Don’t Overmix Biscuits: Mix just until combined to keep them light and fluffy.
  • Taste the Sauce: Adjust salt, pepper, or cheese to suit your flavor preference.
  • Serve Immediately: For best texture, serve the creamy chicken over warm biscuits right after baking.
  • Make-Ahead Friendly: Sauce and chicken can be prepared in advance; just bake the biscuits fresh.
  • Get Creative: Try adding herbs like thyme or parsley to the sauce for extra flavor.

Storing, Freezing and Reheating Instructions

  • Storing Instructions: Store leftover chicken and biscuits separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Keep the sauce in a sealed container to prevent it from thickening too much overnight.
  • Freezing Instructions: Freeze cooked chicken and sauce together in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months. Biscuits freeze best separately; wrap tightly in foil or plastic wrap to maintain freshness.
  • Reheating Instructions: Reheat the chicken and sauce gently on the stovetop over low heat, stirring occasionally until warm. Warm the biscuits in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5–7 minutes or until heated through.
