Our version of everyone’s favourite meal starter from a certain popular seafood restaurant chain is just as savoury, lightly sweet, and cheesy-good—but much lighter, leaning on fat-free Greek yogurt for richness instead of loads of butter. We do use a little butter, but it’s brushed on after the biscuits come out of the oven. That way, the butter has the biggest impact possible, since it sits on the surface and hits your palate first. The biscuits are best served warm, so if you have leftovers, reheat them briefly in a 350°F oven before serving.
