Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 teaspoons vegetable oil, plus more for brushing
2 links fresh chorizo (about 6 ounces), casings removed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 cup fresh corn kernels, or frozen corn, thawed
2 tablespoons chopped pickled jalapenos
3/4 cup grated monterey jack cheese (about 2 ounces)
2 scallions, chopped
All-purpose flour, for dusting
1 11-ounce tube refrigerated French bread dough
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chorizo and cumin and cook, breaking up the meat with a wooden spoon, until browned, about 3 minutes. Add the corn and jalapenos and cook, stirring, until the corn is tender, about 2 minutes; let cool completely. Stir in the cheese and scallions. Squeeze the mixture together with your hands to make it compact.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and brush a baking sheet lightly with vegetable oil. On a floured surface, roll out the dough and fill the dinner pockets. Step-by-step directions.
  • Place the pockets seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet. Beat the egg and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl; brush the pockets with the egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 15 minutes.

I'm not a fan of chorizo, but these pockets were amazing! The pastry was perfect and the filling was flavorful.

These were so easy to make and they turned out great! I used a store-bought pie crust and they were still delicious.
