I'm so excited for my review they gave me a one year subscription to Relish! Which leads me to a new yummy recipe that I made for the boys. Ok mine so are not pretty, but oh so yummy!!! This is one of the easy recipes you can whip up in a few minutes, they give an option of freezing also. I of course have a way too small of a freezer so we have a cook as you go plan :)
2 | boneless, skinless chicken breasts |
2 | tablespoons olive oil |
1 | 11-ounce can corn, drained |
1 | 10.75-ounce can cream of chicken soup |
1 | cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1 | 15-ounce package refrigerated Pillsbury pie dough |
1 | large egg , beaten |
1 | tablespoon poppy seeds |
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
[1] Place the chicken breasts on a small, rimmed baking sheet or pie pan and drizzle with olive oil. Bake uncovered for 15-20 minutes or until cooked through. Let cool and cut into small cubes.
[2] In a medium bowl, combine the chicken, corn, soup and cheese. Unfold the piecrusts, according to package instructions.
[3] On a lightly floured surface, roll each piecrust into a 13 inch circle and cut into quarters. Spoon about ½ cup of the chicken mixture along one straight side of each quarter, about 1/2 inch from the edge.
[4] Brush the edges with egg and fold other straight side of the quarter over the filling.
[5] Seal the edges with a fork. Prick turnover several times with a fork. Brush egg over top of crusts and sprinkle with poppyseeds. Wrap each pocket with plastic wrap and place them all inside a large ziptop freezer bag. Seal the bag and affix the cooking label and lay flat in the freezer.

This kind of dish--chicken, cheese, wrapped in pastry--is so appealing to me! I'm always wanting to make empanadas or some other "pocket" kind of thing. :)
ReplyDeleteBoth this and the chili sound really good! I want to come eat at your house :)
ReplyDeleteMy kids would be ALL OVER THAT!
ReplyDeleteI will have to try this one. I dislike chicken so I try to avoid making it but my kids would love this!
ReplyDeleteMmm.. can you say yummy!
ReplyDeleteand by the way.. can i puuuuuh-leeeeeze come live with you.. if you feed me all these goodies i promise i'll clean the kitchen afterwards.. lol!!!!
oooh, yum, I'm totally going to make that sometime. I've written it down. Looks so good.
ReplyDeleteYou picture looks delicious! I wanted to eat it right off of your blog. I can't wait to make this one.
ReplyDeleteHey, taste is all that matters....
ReplyDeleteThose really look like fun! They'd be perfect to make with all my pheasant that I keep putting off using-LOL!
ReplyDeleteOh how fun! And that recipe looks great.
ReplyDeleteThat's it. I am booking my plane ticket to your house right now.
ReplyDeleteThat is new to me I'll definitely try this kind of recipe. Looks yummy and oh, I gotta go to the store now and the necessary ingredients for this yummy chicken. Thanks for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteOh that sounds great!! I think that is the perfect addition to my menu planning.
ReplyDeleteInteresting on the pie crust v the regular crescent rolls. Again, I would totally eat this but sadly not the wee ones (cheese = bad for Mister Man because he thinks cheese is yucky (so not my child) and Little Miss with the dairy). I just want normal kids for once ;) It sounds great! And hey - I'm all for the looks don't matter. It's all about the taste!
ReplyDeleteokay, I went to the store and got the ingredients. I'm going to make this for dinner tomorrow night. Yum!
ReplyDeleteI really wish I wasn't allergic to chicken.
ReplyDeleteDifferent ~ they look good! How will I ever have time to make all the wonderful recipes you post.
ReplyDeleteMm! These look yummy!!
ReplyDeleteSo yummy!
ReplyDeleteThis is like a hand held chicken pot pie, but you know I HATE peas, and this has NO peas... I love this, I would make this and eat this. Thank you so much for sharing. Somehow I missed it on Relish! Don't you just love their service? I am so gonna miss mine when the subscription runs out. :-(
ReplyDeleteWow, the turnovers look amazing, I am going to the grocery store later this afternoon and adding the ingrediants to my list. Yum!!!
