Ingredients
  

2 cups all-purpose flour

1 tablespoon baking powder

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed

1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese

1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled (approximately 4 slices)

1/2 cup chopped green chiles (fresh or canned)

3/4 cup buttermilk

1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives (optional, for garnish)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 450°F (232°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, which will help with easy cleanup after baking.

    Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, use a whisk to combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Ensure these dry ingredients are well blended for even flavor.

      Incorporate Butter: Add the cold, cubed butter into the dry mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingertips to cut in the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. This step is essential for achieving flaky biscuits.

        Add Cheese and Bacon: Gently fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and crumbled bacon to the flour and butter mixture. Make sure they are evenly distributed to ensure every bite is flavorful.

          Mix in Green Chiles: Carefully fold in the chopped green chiles, making sure they are well incorporated into the dough.

            Combine Wet Ingredients: Create a well in the center of the mixture and pour in the buttermilk. Use a wooden spoon to stir gently until the dough starts to come together. Avoid overmixing; a few lumps are perfectly fine.

              Shape the Biscuits: Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface. Pat it down into a rectangle about 1-inch thick. Using a biscuit cutter or a glass, cut out biscuits and place them onto the prepared baking sheet, ensuring there’s a little space between each biscuit for even baking.

                Bake Biscuits: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven. Bake the biscuits for 12 to 15 minutes, or until they are golden brown on top and cooked through.

                  Serve: Once baked, remove the biscuits from the oven and allow them to cool for a couple of minutes on the baking sheet. For an extra flair, sprinkle chopped fresh chives on top before serving. These biscuits are delightful when served warm with butter or your favorite spread.
