CHICKEN POCKETS
My Mother-in-Law used to make these after Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners with the left over turkey. I got the recipe from her and does what every cook does, altered it a bit and made it my own.

Steps:
- 1. If using packaged crescents rolls, form squares with 2 pieces by pinching together one long edge. May also use your own fresh roll dough or other favorite frozen roll dough, thawed. Just roll them out thin.
- 2. Mix together Cream Cheese Chicken, Milk, Salt, Pepper, Garlic, and green onion/chives slices, leaving the chicken in small chunks, and the cream cheese as well.
- 3. Divide mixture between the 4 prepared roll squares. Pinch together the edges forming a pocket. If using frozen yeast dough, pockets will be more round, instead of the square-ish shape of the crescent rolls. Place on a baking sheet, I line with Parchment, Brush with melted Butter.
- 4. Bake in a pre-heated 350 degree oven for 20-25 minutes. Serve with cranberry sauce if desired.
- 5. These can be pre-prepared and frozen. After you have mixed the filling, and filled the pockets, place on a parchment paper square, brush with melted butter, gently fold paper around pocket, wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. To bake these from FROZEN, place in a covered shallow casserole dish and bake in a 350 oven, covered for 40-45 minutes, then uncovered for 20-25 minutes more, brush with butter when you take the lid off. Serve with cranberry sauce.

[email protected]These were a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add some more spices to the filling next time.

[email protected]I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but these pockets were surprisingly good! The breading was crispy and the filling was moist and flavorful. I would definitely make these again.

[email protected]These chicken pockets were so easy to make and they turned out so delicious! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken to save time, and the filling was simple but flavorful. My kids loved them!

[email protected]I tried this recipe last night and it was a hit with my family! The chicken was tender and juicy, and the filling was flavorful and cheesy. I especially liked the crispy edges of the chicken pockets. I will definitely be making this again.
