Steps:
- Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high. Cook chorizo and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until chorizo is beginning to brown and mushrooms release their juices and then evaporate, about 10 minutes. Stir in kale, sauce, and oregano; season with salt. Cover and cook until kale is wilted, about 2 minutes. Toss to combine, then remove from heat and let cool.
- Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment. Cut dough into 8 equal portions (each should weigh 4 oz.) and roll into balls. Working one at a time, roll out on a lightly floured surface to a 7 1/2-8"-diameter circle. Transfer 1/2 cup filling and 1/2 cup cheese to center of circle. Using a pastry brush or your finger, brush water around edges of circle, then fold dough in half over filling to create a half moon. Using a fork, press edges to seal. Transfer to prepared sheet. Repeat with remaining dough, filling, and cheese.
- Whisk egg and milk in a small bowl. Brush tops of pizza pockets with egg wash.
- If baking immediately, preheat oven to 350°F. If freezing to bake later, freeze on baking sheets 1 hour, then transfer to resealable plastic bags and freeze up to 3 months.
- Bake pizza pockets on parchment-lined rimmed baking sheets until tops are golden brown, about 30 minutes for fresh and about 40 minutes for frozen.
- Do Ahead
- Filling can be made 1 day ahead; transfer to an airtight container and chill. Pockets can be assembled 3 months ahead; keep frozen.
