Categories     Dinner

Yield 8 pockets

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ⅓ cups warm water
2 ¼ teaspoons yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
3 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil, plus 1 additional teaspoon
1 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese, plus 2 tablespoons for topping
1 ½ cups broccoli, steamed
1 ½ cups shredded chicken breast
1 teaspoon olive oil

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix the warm water, yeast, and sugar. Let sit for 5 minutes, or until the mixture becomes cloudy and slightly foamy.
  • Add the flour, salt, and 1 tablespoon of oil to the bowl with the yeast mixture and stir until combined.
  • Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for 3-5 minutes.
  • Wipe the large bowl clean and lightly coat with remaining oil. Place the dough into the bowl and cover with plastic wrap and a dish towel.
  • Set in a warm place for 20 minutes, or until the dough has nearly doubled in size.
  • Preheat oven to 450ºF (230ºC), and line a sheet tray with parchment paper.
  • Once risen, turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and stretch the dough into a 12x22-inch (30x56 cm) rectangle.
  • Layer the cheddar, broccoli, and chicken in the center of the rectangle, lengthwise, leaving 1-2 inches (2 ½-5 cm) on the top and bottom.
  • Slice the dough in half through the center, lengthwise.
  • Fold each piece's center edge towards the outer edge and pat down, creating a long roll-up.
  • Slice each roll into 4-5 equal pieces. Pinch the edges closed on all the pieces and place on sheet tray.
  • Brush the tops with olive oil and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
  • Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until light golden brown.
  • Serve immediately or allow to cool, then freeze in an airtight container up to 1-2 months.
  • To reheat, microwave for 45 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Enjoy!
