Chicken And Broccoli Pockets Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
• Cut the puff pastry into six rectangles and place on a nonstick baking tray.
• On one rectangle, spread 1 tablespoon of alfredo. Top with steamed broccoli, shredded chicken, and cheddar.
• Place a rectangle of pastry on top and seal the edges with a fork. Repeat with remaining pastry rectangles.
• Brush with egg wash.
• Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the pastry is flaky and golden.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Season chicken with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add chicken; cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Reduce heat to medium. Cook until juices run clear and chicken is cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Let cool completely. Coarsely chop chicken, and transfer to a medium bowl.
• Bring 1 1/2 inches of water to a boil in a small saucepan fitted with the steamer insert. Add broccoli; cover, and cook until broccoli is just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate. Let cool completely. Coarsely chop broccoli; add to chicken in the bowl. Add cheeses, and season with salt and pepper. Toss well.
• Place a packed 1/2 cup of chicken mixture in center of each tortilla; shape filling into a horizontal oval. Fold in right and left sides about 1/2 inch, then tightly roll up.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place pockets seam down on a lightly oiled baking sheet. Bake until crisp and beginning to turn golden, about 12 minutes. Cut in half crosswise, and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Heat 10- to 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Drizzle hot skillet with 1 tablespoon of the oil. Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper; add to skillet. Cook chicken until no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from skillet to plate; set aside.
• Add remaining tablespoon oil to skillet. Add flour; stir with whisk and cook 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in milk; heat to boiling. Add cooked chicken and thawed broccoli; cook 5 to 7 minutes or until sauce has thickened.
• Remove skillet from heat; stir in cheese until melted.
• Cut out 3 large rounds from each pie crust. Spoon about 1/4 cup chicken-broccoli-cheese mixture onto each pie crust round. Fold dough over filling to form semi-circle; press edges with tines of fork to seal. With sharp knife, cut 2 or 3 slits in top crust to allow steam to escape. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
• In small bowl, beat egg and water with fork or whisk until blended. Brush over pies.
• Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown.
