Categories     appetizer

Time 40m

Yield 12 pockets

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 quart neutral oil
1 cup shredded mozzarella
One 4-ounce block cream cheese, softened
1/2 tablespoon garlic salt
Pinch crushed red pepper flakes
All-purpose flour, for dusting
One 13.8-ounce tube prepared pizza dough
1/2 cup cooked crabmeat
Fresh parsley, for garnish

Steps:

  • Pour the oil into a large heavy-bottomed pot fitted with a deep-frying thermometer.
  • Combine the mozzarella, cream cheese, garlic salt and crushed red pepper in a food processor. Pulse until a thick paste is formed, about 30 seconds. Set aside.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll the pizza dough to form a 16-by-12-inch rectangle. Use a 3-inch round cutter to cut out 10 to 12 rounds of dough. Use your fingertips to gently stretch each round of dough into a 4-inch circle. Top a round of dough (slightly off-center) with 1 heaping teaspoon of the cheese mixture and 1 teaspoon crabmeat. Fold the dough in half over the filling to create a half-moon. Press the edges together to seal the pocket and crimp with the prongs of a fork. (See Cook's Note.) Repeat this process with the remaining circles and filling.
  • Preheat the vegetable oil to 350 degrees F and line a plate with paper towels.
  • Working in batches, carefully lay the pizza pockets in the hot oil. Fry until deeply golden brown, 1 to 1 1/2 minute on each side. Remove from the hot oil to the lined plate to cool slightly.
  • Garnish with fresh parsley.
