Description

Little handheld pastries stuffed with seasoned chicken, cheddar, and ranch, baked until golden and crispy, perfect for meals or snacks.


Ingredients

  • 1 lb (450 g) cooked chicken, shredded
  • 1/2 cup taco seasoning
  • 1/3 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 can (8 oz) crescent-roll dough (or 12 biscuit rounds)
  • 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a bowl, toss shredded chicken with taco seasoning, ranch dressing, and cheddar cheese.
  3. Cut the crescent-roll dough into squares.
  4. Place 1 Tbsp of the filling in the center of each square.
  5. Fold the squares over to enclose the filling and pinch edges to seal.
  6. Brush with beaten egg.
  7. Bake on a parchment-lined sheet for 12–16 minutes until golden brown.
  8. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Adjust the fillings as desired. Keep the dough from getting too wet to avoid sogginess. Use an egg wash for a golden crust.
