CHICKEN AND MUSHROOM POCKETS (PAULA DEEN)



Chicken and Mushroom Pockets (Paula Deen) image

This is from the May /June 2009 issue of Paula Deen's magazine under party menus "Meet the Parents Menu" as the appetizer. I made these for my family and guests and they all really enjoyed them. I didn't tell my husband and he said they seemed more upscale than most appetizers. The secret is the filling for the pockets. This is a delightful little mouthful. This is made for a party so it makes a lot of pockets. Enjoy ChefDLH!

MUSHROOM & CHEESE "HOT POCKETS"



Mushroom & Cheese

I had some leftover sliced mushrooms, cheese & a can of crescent rolls - and was thinking of something I could make with all 3 items...... So, voila - I came up with this tasty creation. I didn't do this, this time but will definitely next time.....is add a small slice of pre-cooked chicken, turkey, or beef on top of the...

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pkg pre-sliced mushrooms
3 Tbsp minced garlic
A few dash(es) adobo powder or italian seasoning or something spicy
2 c fresh spinach
2 1/2 c shredded, mozzarella cheese
5-6 Tbsp butter
3 scoop(s) sour cream
1 can(s) crescent rolls, refrigerated
salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Add your butter and minced garlic into your saute pan and let it melt a little before adding mushrooms.
  • 2. Saute mushrooms( & sprinkle your seasonings) until your desired doneness - it was roughly 10-12 mins for me. Add spinach after mushrooms have almost cooked through (since they cook fast)
  • 3. Once mushrooms & spinach are all cooked - grab a bowl to place the mixture in and stir in the sour cream until well blended.
  • 4. Once mixture is a all blended together - take the can of crescent rolls out of fridge. Once you open the can - make sure to save the cooking times & oven temperature - b/c you will still bake them the amount of time as making regular rolls
  • 5. Follow perforations on the dough & tear each one separately. Lay the dough out on cutting board & with your fingers - press down on dough & stretch & flatten out the dough to make it larger for stuffing. But dont make it too thin.
  • 6. Sprinkle a tiny bit of cheese on dough (in middle) and then take a teaspoon scoop of mushroom & spinach mixture (and tiny piece of chicken on top - if you chose to add meat) - & place on top of cheese.
  • 7. Now carefully bring in the 2 corners on the widest end - into the middle where the mixture is and fold in the part between those 2 corners - then start rolling everything together - keeping the sides of the dough up & over the filling until you get to the tiny tip of the dough. (may take a few attempts at keeping everything together as you roll....but it gets easier - LOL)
  • 8. On a flat cookie sheet - lay out some aluminum foil over it and then spray the top of the cookie sheet with PAM or your favorite non-stick cooking spray. And lay out your "hot pockets"......and cook according to crescent roll can directions.
