Steps:
- Heat oven to 375°F.
- In a large bowl, combine the chicken, corn, raisins, cilantro, onion, cheese, salt, and pepper.
- With a biscuit cutter, cut an equal number of circles from each pie crust. (I made mine as rounds from a 2-inch biscuit cutter ~ I topped each circle with another circle! If your biscuit cutter is large enough, you may be able to fill, then fold over the dough before crimping.).
- Spoon some of the chicken mixture onto half your dough circles, leaving a border. Brush the edges with water, fold in half, or top with another circle, and press with a fork to seal. Poke a couple of holes (or a slit) in the top crust to let out steam!
- Transfer to a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
