Description
Warm, golden chicken pizza pockets filled with cooked chicken, mozzarella cheese, pizza sauce, and oregano, all wrapped in soft pizza dough and baked until perfectly crisp on the outside and melty inside.
Ingredients
Scale
- 450 grams prepared pizza dough
- 1 1/2 cups cooked chicken pieces
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 1/2 cup pizza sauce
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken pieces, pizza sauce, shredded mozzarella cheese, and dried oregano until evenly mixed.
- Lightly brush the prepared baking sheet with a little olive oil.
- Roll the pizza dough into small circles. Spoon some filling into the center of each circle, then fold the dough over and seal the edges firmly.
- Arrange the pockets on the baking sheet and brush the tops with the remaining olive oil.
- Bake for 18 minutes, or until the pockets are golden brown and cooked through.
- Let them cool for a few minutes, then serve warm.
Notes
- Do not overfill the dough or the pockets may leak while baking.
- Press the edges with a fork for a tighter seal and a neat finish.
- These pockets can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated in the oven.
- They can also be frozen individually and baked from frozen at 350°F until heated through.
