You may want to make up a batch of the herb seasoning used in these biscuits to use in other stuff, we do! This seasoning is enough for 8 bathches of biscuits (each batch making 6 biscuits). It is really, really good on chicken, pork, beef and steamed veggies. This recipe was originally from Taste of Home. Contributed by: Jane Everett, in Pinehurst, North Carolina.
We make these often, and quite enjoy them. I'm pretty sure that you'll like them as well as we do!

How to Make Herbed Biscuits

Step-by-Step

Combine seasoning mix ingredients ahead and store them in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
For Biscuits:
Saute 1 tablespoon of the seasoning mix, and onion in 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet, until onion is tender; set aside.
In a bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Cut in shortening until crumbly. Combine egg, milk and onion mixture; stir into dry ingredients just until moistened.
Turn onto a floured surface; knead 10-15 times. Roll to 3/4-inch thickness; cut with a 2-2 1/2 inch biscuit cutter. Place on an ungreased baking sheet. Melt remaining butter; brush over biscuits. Sprinkle with cheese.
Bake at 450 degrees for 10-14 minutes or until golden brown. Yield: 6 biscuits, Seasoning Mix 1/2 cup.
