I used to make these "chicken packets" when I first moved out of my Gran's house. Granny was an amazing cook (there were no pre-made doughs or sauces in her house). I searched google for DIY hot pockets and hit the mother load!
I thought I'd make a fun snack for the hubby for when I'm gone. I had a coupon for crescent rolls so I kinda just took a little info from several recipes. These are definitely not the healthiest meal I've made but they were super easy. Here goes!
Crescent Roll Chicken Packets
makes 8 packets
Ingredients:
2 tubes of crescent rolls (I used reduced fat)
1 cup shredded chicken
1 cup shredded mozarrella cheese
1 cup riccotta cheese (also reduced fat)
1/2 cup bell pepper (seeded, chopped and sauteed)
1 cup spinach, chopped and sauteed
1/2 cup onion, chopped and sauteed
1 tablespoon crushed garlic
Directions
Preheat oven to 375. Combine all ingredients except for the rolls into a large bowl and mix thoroughly.
Open crescent roll tubes. Used 2 crescent rolls (a large rectangle) and lay it our on a floured or non-stick surface.
Add filling to one half. Fold dough over filling and seal the edges.
Place filled dough packets on a non-stick cookie sheet. Bake for 15-18 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for a few minutes before biting into chicken packets. They are hot!
These sound very tasty! In fact, I have hamburger thawing for supper, maybe I could use that instead of chicken...thanks for sharing!
